Planning

Planning service
Yes
How the planning service works
The service includes the robust forecasting and valuation of benefits aligned to delivery milestones. Depending on the stage of delivery, this valuation can be used to support planning of delivery in line with maximum benefits realisation. For agile projects, this process can be built into backlog prioritisation and sprint planning.

Benefits can also be used to appraise different solution options and delivery approaches at a project's outset or at different stage gates or approval milestones. This can help ensure the planned approach will deliver the greatest value for the organisation.

In exploring benefits, projects will often identify additional delivery requirements or items of scope outside core technical delivery (such as training or business process design) that need to be included to ensure benefit realisation. This can avoid delays to delivery and benefit realisation and unexpected changes to scope during delivery.

Fighting climate change

Benefits management of cloud technology implementation will typically include benefits related to the climate impact of the change. Understanding the underlying changes in compute and processing requirements of the service under development, and of the behavioural impact on staff and end users of the service (such as reducing the need to travel for in-person meetings) can allow for the quantification of metrics such as carbon emissions. Active management of benefits supports the earlier and greater realisation of those benefits, enabling programmes to better deliver climate-related benefits.

Covid-19 recovery

Where change programmes relate to Covid-19 recovery, benefits management can support the earlier and greater realisation of associated benefits.

Tackling economic inequality

Where change programmes relate to tackling economic inequality, benefits management can support the earlier and greater realisation of associated benefits.

Equal opportunity

Where change programmes relate to promoting equal opportunity, benefits management can support the earlier and greater realisation of associated benefits.

Wellbeing

Where change programmes relate to promoting wellbeing, benefits management can support the earlier and greater realisation of associated benefits.
