Benefits Map Using this Template Benefits Maps are a pictorial representation of the value proposition of a programme / project and are an important communication mechanism to help generate stakeholder consensus and commitment. They can also be utilised to identify the components required to generate benefits, including the key activities and outputs required, their alignment with organisational strategy, and any assumptions, interdependencies and risks associated with their delivery. For Programmes / Major / Large Projects, it is recommended that a Value Proposition Benefits Map should be generated as an outcome of the Investment Logic Mapping (ILM) process and incorporated into business case submissions. For Minor / Small Projects, a Value Proposition Benefits Map is optional, but should be considered in situations where the value proposition is unclear or where the benefits are reliant on multiple dependencies. The Benefits Journey Map is optional and should be considered where greater clarity of the journey to achieve the end benefits is required, in order to support development of the programme / project schedule e. g. to identify dependencies, outputs, and interim benefits. Benefits Maps should be revalidated throughout the course of a programme / project, noting that changing circumstances, new information, and / or reliance on assumptions may necessitate their revision. Events that can impact benefits realisation include programme / project scope changes, solution selection decisions, timing / scope of rollout, and the emergence of issues. NOTE: Please remove this page when creating a Benefits Map deliverable.

The sum of the four weightings should = 100% % weighting - the importance of the KPI relative to the other KPI that contributes to the benefit. The sum of the two weightings should = 100% XX% [The performance improvement (effect) expected by solving the expected byproblem] solving the problem] Measures / KPIs XX% Strategic Objectives / Priorities [The measure that will be used to demonstrate the performance improvement] XX% XX% [The problem and resultant organisation performance effects / consequences] XX% XX% XX% [The strategic objective / priority the benefit contributes towards]
