@chrissch9674 the CBA for a SS, Lean or LSS project isn”t any different than it is for any other project. We do limit people to claiming benefits beyond 12 months.
We don’t necessarily have to have a positive ROI (something like a safety project) but people should make a decision to charter or not to charter a project with that piece of information available to them.
We also track the projected benefits, by month aginst the realized benefits, by month, so we know if something isn’t working.
The part that seems to be a difficult sell – particularly to accounting people is doing something like a regression between projected benefits (before the project begins) and realized benefits (when the project completes) so if there is a problem with the accuracy of the projections you can fix it. Unfortunately most of the accountants that get involved are used to measuring other peoples performance and improvement but they aren’t real excited about you measuring them.
Just my opinion.
