London roadmap evidence gates: from board commitment to filed regulator evidence

Six gates trace the London transformation roadmap as an evidence chain. Each gate names the function that owns it, the milestone it clears, and the artefact filed at that gate.

The roadmap exists because Ofgem reads it. Each gate produces a filed artefact that the board can defend under audit, and the chain closes when first-year operation is evidenced.

London roadmap evidence gates: from board commitment to filed regulator evidence A vertical evidence ladder of six RIIO-ED roadmap gates joined by downward arrows, with a left axis reading evidence accumulates. G1 Commitment, owned by the Board, files the signed commitment. G2 Design, owned by Architecture, files the vision with Ofgem. G3 Build, owned by Delivery, files build evidence packs. G4 Test, owned by Pilot, files pilot reports and test passes. G5 Release, owned by Go-live, files go-live evidence and a rollback path. G6 Operate, owned by Operations and emphasised in red, files first-year operational evidence. A red note states the chain closes at Operate, where the roadmap becomes defensible end to end.
