Guide: Benefits Analysis and Planning

What is Benefits Analysis and Planning?
Benefits Analysis and Planning is an integral part of Benefits Realization Management within the Conceptual Framework of CAPM (Certified Associate in Project Management). It involves identifying, analyzing, planning, and managing benefits derived from a project or program to drive better business outcomes.

Why is it Important?
It helps organizations to predict the tangible and intangible benefits of a project, and make informed decisions on whether to invest or not. It also enables us to align the project outputs with strategic objectives.

How It Works?
The process usually involves four stages:
- Identifying benefits and linking them to strategic objectives.
- Analyzing and quantifying the benefits.
- Planning the delivery of benefits.
- Monitoring and evaluating the outcomes to ensure benefits are realized.

Benefits Analysis and Planning follow the process after Benefits Identification. It involves evaluating the identified benefits in terms of feasibility, impact, when they would be realized, and the resources required. This evaluation aids in designing the benefits realization plan which outlines how and when the identified benefits will be achieved. It includes milestones, measures, responsibilities, and the timeline for when each benefit should be realized.
