Cengage Learning Strategic Project Management Transformation by Resch
In today's changing and competitive economic environment, CEOs, corporate executives and shareholders are no longer strictly concerned with how well a project was executed even if it was finished on time and on budget. Most projects are now being viewed as strategic investments with the primary concern being the value that a project contributed to the company's bottom line. Project benefit attainment usually occurs after the project team has disb anded and h anded over the project deliverables to the operational teams. It is in this transition and subsequent operation where much value is lost and the truly important business benefits that could have been achieved are not. Strategic Project Management Transformation demonstrates how to transform this trend of project management failure and sub-optimization into strategic and financial project management success. It shows project managers and business professionals how to establish processes that extend beyond closeout and enable stakeholders and operational teams to continue measuring and optimizing business value until all of a project's objectives have been achieved or exceeded, thereby maximizing financial returns, beneficial change and competitive advantage for their organizations.
