Economics Evaluations 102: Building a Stronger Case for Implementation

Speaker: Rob Sarnie (WPI) 

In our spring virtual conference we were refamiliarized with economic evaluation methods for TUR Planners.  In this session we will dive deeper into some of the tools and tips Planners can use to help make a stronger strategic business case for implementation of TUR methods. It will also help you after your business case is approved by giving more tips to set up, track, analyze variances, and adjust your critically approved costs appropriately to achieve success for your case.
