Benefits Realization and Visualization Tutorial and Roundtable for Government

This event qualifies for .3 CEUs

This event qualifies for 3 CPEs

Event is for Government Attendees Only

Overview of the Tutorial and Roundtable:
Many projects are completed on time and within budgets, but at their end, have limited or no contribution to meeting the goals and objectives of an organization. Other projects are “put on hold” due to executive or political priorities that have changed during the long project development cycle but have intermediate results that have value that can be realized in meeting mission goals. With limited agency budgets, managers cannot afford to make these kinds of strategic resource “wastes”.

Government managers and executives know the importance of continually monitoring project performance and benefits to meet the needs of the organization and the intermediary goals which often change due to budgetary or political changes.
