Every proposal claims a benefit and almost none are checked. This records the claim at approval and measures against it later, which changes the quality of the next proposal.
What's Included
- The claimed benefit recorded at approval, before anyone knows the answer.
- A measure agreed in advance so it cannot be reframed later.
- Actual against claimed reported honestly.
- An assistant that reports plainly, including the failures.
How To Use
- Record the claim before the work starts. Afterwards it will be reshaped.
- Agree the measure in advance and do not change it.
- Report the ones that did not work. That is what makes the rest credible.
- Feed the results into how you judge the next proposal.
Pull the claims from the initiative portfolio, and the cost from the spend monitor.
