Vision maps, value maps and project lifecycle

What the exam expects

• Distinguish a Vision Map from a Value Map, name the Value Map's three components and fill missing metrics responsibly.
• Say what belongs in the project vision document, and budget the total cost of ownership beyond donated licences.
• Pick the change management lever and governance operating model that fit a symptom or org structure.
• Classify data as hot, warm or cold and plan migration, integration and ongoing data health.
• Sequence a phased implementation (first phase, when not to phase, the five project steps) and the project lifecycle (charter, Agile versus waterfall, per-iteration business value, CPI).
• Key terms: Vision Map (stakeholder-organized picture of why to invest); Value Map (table of goals, capabilities and metrics showing return); change levers (six forces that support or impede change); operating model (structure that enforces governance); project charter (approved scope and objectives); CPI (planned cost over actual cost).
