Law is about consent, not compulsion. The Project Control Implementation Standards guide is still being written Having a common data format across all projects would enable better data analytics Anyone can contribute to the development and elaboration of a Standard It is possible to time phase the benefits over the course of a project. The Project Controls community can assist with the monitoring and measurement Having a British Standard on Benefits Management will help contract practice We should try and incentivise Contractors to think about Benefits Here are links to a some of the concepts we discussed: EVA 26 - Steve Wake's EVA in the UK - Conversation Club - https://evaintheuk.org/ BS 6079 Project Management Principles and Guidance - https://www.bsigroup.com/en-GB/standards/bs-6079-project-management/ Practice Standard for Earned Value Management: https://www.pmi.org/pmbok-guide-standards/framework/earned-value-management-2nd Projects Leaving the Government Major Project Portfolio: https://www.nao.org.uk/press-release/projects-leaving-the-government-major-projects-portfolio/ Tune in next week when we’re joined by Rupert Taylor to talk about how to kill the Powerpoint and Excel ‘industry’.
