Analyzing Benefits and Refining Solutions

Analyzing Benefits and Refining Solutions applies an approach to using business analysis skills that addresses the work needed to ensure that a solution, once in place, actually delivers the business value that was expected of it, and to optimize that business value over its useful life. This course explores the period after solution development and implementation.  This may be a time where there is no identified project manager in place, but when an organization should be evaluating the solution to ensure it is providing the value it was intended to provide. Business analysis remains critical at this point.
