Test prototype and measure its use
Propose new prototype and determine its cost
Identify benefits of new prototype
Value benefits of new prototype

Advantages and Disadvantage of Value Analysis
Advantages :
• Emphasizes the value of benefits over costs and
evaluation of costs and benefits are kept separate
• Considers intangible benefits that surrogate measures
do not have to be defined and measure
• Prototyping accompanying decreases risk associated
with investing in IT
Disadvantage :
• Should not be used for investments that are large and
considered to be capital investments

Benefit/Risk Analysis Methodology

compared to determine if the benefits outweigh the risk
• Provides framework that may be used to examine
benefits and risk then assessing its impact and cost

• Project size
• Experience with technology
• Project structure
Using questionnaire  See Table 1-3
• Are the benefits large enough in comparison to risk?
• Can affected parts of organization survive if project fails?
• Are appropriate alternative IT investments considered?
