The forming, funding, approval, and planning of a project are key factors in its future success or failure. This book explains the use of strategic project analysis, and advocates for a closer relationship between economic analysis and project evaluation and provides real-world examples of major projects that have used this method.The primary quantitative method for decision-making in project selection is cost-benefit analysis. However, the method has well-known flaws and challenges. Using the principles of stakeholders, risk, ethics, and bias, the book presents a rationale for broadening traditional project analysis to include both quantitative and qualitative methods. The identification of sustainability and resilience benefits and hidden value are highlighted as an equally important factor in assessing projects.Written in a clear and accessible style with straightforward maths, this book is invaluable to project owners, decision-makers, and management professionals seeking broader tools to evaluate strategic projects, as well as students of project management.

Project Performance Review focuses on evaluating projects efficiently and in context, identifying important improvement opportunities and leading project and organizational management practices. It advises how these can be put in place to give stakeholders confidence in the control and delivery of their projects without waste. The authors explain not just the mechanism and objective of project performance reviews but also the ideal environment in which they are intended to be implemented. The shaping of this environment, by the stakeholders and technical team, is key to achieving your intended outcomes. Without the professional cooperation of all interested and informed parties, the effectiveness of any review may be compromised. Topics addressed include: introducing the project review method, engaging project stakeholders, ensuring project governance, conducting project risk assessments, improving accountability, providing project assurance, organizing and managing projects, optimizing review scope and approach, avoiding review pitfalls, meeting existing audit standards, and proposing alternate approaches to project evaluation.
