Measurable organizational value in important for defining the goals of the project.
According to the measurable organizational value, every project that is undertaken by the
organization should align with the vision mission and the strategy of an organization (Kerzner &
Kerzner, 2017). The project is expected to have an impact on the different areas which includes
Customer, financial, operation and strategy (Marchewka, 2014). The ranking of these area of
impact in the order of their importance are indicated in the following table (Larson, Gray,
Danlin, Honig & Bacarini, 2014)-
Areas of Impact Rank

The values that the project will bring to the company are as follows (Harrison & Lock,
2017)-
