    Thanks for the video!
    Timestamps:
    1. Problem - Critical to state a solid 'what's the problem' statement with specific examples including costs associated with it, as it's the filter for decision makers to accept or reject your proposal - 1:33
    2. Vision - Directly tie your project with long range goals and organization strategies - 2:55
    3. Benefits - Expand on the Vision statement: What will your project deliver, cost to avoid - 3:28
    4. Deliverables - What will users receive? - 3:50
    5. Success Criteria - It has to be specific, measurable, realistic, achievable, and time bound - 4:15
    6. Deadlines/Plan/Approach - Detail what'll the project use as means/tools to achieve results. It'll use an Agile approach, or a more traditional Waterfall method - 4:45
    7. Cost/Budget - State the funding plan for the project based on the above listed items - 5:17
    Be specific and concise. It has to logically flow. But mainly lobby for your project before and after presenting your proposal.

    Good stuff, but there's another tactic which I've used with success over the years. Without being too overt, it's important to give the decision makers a picture of how this project could benefit their own careers. When people get excited about what the project will do for them, the funding is pretty much guaranteed...

    • @Desnacia
      @Desnacia 2 года назад

      I like to change the A to actionable. This is where you figure out the specific actions that need to be taken. and Then R (realistic) is where you figure out what problems may show up. Where your weaknesses and strengths are, and then solve those problems before you get started. If you can’t solve the problem now is the time to re-evaluate if you can realistically complete the goal and change up some strategies.

    Devin, thanks so much for the well outlined video! I am, however, still a bit confused on the difference between the "Benefits" and "Deliverables." Are the benefits more abstract, such as "as a result of this project we're able to provide better, more efficient service as a result of..." And, the deliverables are more concrete, such as a list of items needed to provide better, more efficient support?

      It's not really a problem, rather, it's a problem statement. This defines in simple terms the challenge that you are trying to solve and why solving it is quite important. So, it's fine to start with the problem statement.
