Venkataraman and Pinto (Penn State U., Erie) address the reasons why large scale military and government projects often run behind schedule, and how this is linked to a lack of integrated cost and value management frameworks. The authors recommend the use of these strategies to emphasize value during the life of a project, aiming these ideas at both planners and managers. This book shows how to practice these skills until the bottom line is impacted, increasing both market share and technical innovation.
