Advantages offered by Global Lynx

Global Lynx offers you training courses in the EVC framework, which is urgently needed by organizations for the following reasons:

• Businesses and government agencies are investing considerably in digital process improvements and innovation initiatives; and forecasting the benefits of these initiatives is a challenge because they have a high-level of uncertainty in its prediction. Therefore, organizations need a structured framework and method to effectively assess, forecast, quantify, compare, and measure the value created in an enterprise with any initiative, project, program, or portfolio.
• Business cycles are now very short.  In order to survive in the new digital ecosystem, companies cannot longer afford long business cycles.  Budgeting and strategic planning needs to be more dynamic because new opportunities, or threats, appear constantly, and many new projects and initiatives –from idea-to-execution— need to be implemented in months, and often in weeks.  The technology to allow business-agility is here (i.e., Cloud, mobility, smart devices, IoT, etc.), however, the current processes and governance do not provide a two-modality framework for rapid project evaluation, approval and budgeting.  The EVC 4.0 Framework provide a method and framework for the two-modality, the fast-lane, and the endurance and traditional governance lane for project evaluation and approval.
• EVC applies to any projector initiative of any type, for any business area, and at any level (from small initiatives, to large complex projects; as well as to evaluate the value created with portfolios and long-term strategic plans.
