Black Swan Farming Using Cost of Delay: Discover, Nurture and Speed Up Delivery of Value

Abstract

Improving prioritization has become a tired concept in most IT departments, and yet it has the potential to change the conversation from one of cutting cost, to delivering valuable solutions as quick as the business needs it. This paper examines how Maersk Line applied an economic framework across a $100 million portfolio to quickly discover, nurture and speed up the delivery of value.
