Benefit Review template

Available template:

The Benefit Review Plan is the tool for validating the assumptions stated in the Business Case. The product, as envisioned, is split into its functions. The result gives “what is done” through the definition of the required properties and then the criteria used for testing them.

From the procedural viewpoint, this document is sitting between the Business Case and the “operational” documents (e.g. Risk Analysis, Quality, Planning – which means staffing resources for delivering as per the proposed schedule).

In view of its importance for the project, any modification will be approved by the Project Owner in accordance with the Sr User (a.k.a. customer’s representative).

This template can be easily used for incremental approach in Agile style. In essence it helps to define the properties that will form the conditions of the functional tests. From my experience, this is essential for designing the “proof of concept“, it is especially true for the architecture (e.g. workload).

Quote of the day

For professional reasons, I was not able to read the blogs during the week-end. A soon as possible I will catch up with them with the aim of continuing a dialog with friends and colleagues to whom I have a big debt of knowledge.
