QuestionQ215

Benefits Realization

A CIO finds that IT investment-management processes are not fully delivering the benefits identified in business cases. Which of the following would be the BEST way to prevent this issue?

  • A Document lessons learned throughout the investment life cycle.
  • B Perform stage-gate reviews throughout the life cycle of each project.
  • C Evaluate the delegation of investment approval authorities.
  • D Establish a requirement for CIO review and approval of each business case.
Explanation

Stage-gate reviews create recurring decision points throughout a project’s life cycle to validate that the investment remains aligned with its business case and is still expected to deliver its planned benefits. They enable timely corrective action, redirection, or termination when benefits are at risk.
