Abstract:Organization's ability to assess investment related costs, benefits, and estimate the investment outcomes before investing is one of the determinants of successful business. This has become increasingly difficult as during the era of what we widely refer as "knowledge economy", the investment project related factors are often of intangible nature. Complex project environment with multiple stakeholders and increasingly more important role of IT systems further complicates the situation. This is why most of middle and large sized corporations are dealing with intangible issues, such as valuing of knowledge assets, in their pursuit for organizational effectiveness. The implications are that in addition to traditional tangible benefits justifiable in financial terms, a new set of intangible benefits appear in project business cases. A new approach to evaluate such investment projects is needed. |
