#FACTUR3DT.IO to measure the solution impacts on current and proposed solutions


>> Ensures Work and Systems Operations are measured accurately against plans for impacts 

<< FACTUR3DT.IO to measure the delta on results to plans

F = Feelings - how do stakeholders feel about current system, new targets, change journey?  What needs to be done to educate, build consensus? for all: company, clients, partners, regulators

A = Accuracy - how accurate is the system - gaps identified with metrics, strategies to improve measurement

C = Costs - all costs ( tangible, intangible, avoidable ) for delivery, operation and retirement of the solution in focus

T = Timeliness - how timely is the solution in meeting needs of stakeholders for timely results, information? where are there gaps?

U = Utilitiy - what is the utility or value of the solution to the different stakeholder groups? how is this measured now? how should it be measured?

R3 = The Right Resources, Revenues, Risks defined and measured

R.1 = Resources - What are the current resources invested? needed? gaps? how to fill?

R.2 = Revenues - What impact on revenues for solution?  now?  future expected revenues? how measured? why different? who is responsible?

R.3 = Risks - What are the key risks for:  Adoption, Delivery, Operation, Support, Retirement across the stakeholder groups?

D = Decisions - What are the critical decisions for stakeholders during each phase of the SDP?  What are key operations decisions? Can they be improved with policy automation and governance?

T = Trusts - What are the key trusts that need to be in place for all stakeholders and participants in the solution to be effective, efficient, supported?
