Value Selling & Realization Council

About

A community built around one problem: proving value

The Value Selling & Realization Council is a professional community of value selling practitioners, value consultants, value engineers, value enablement and value realization experts who share standards, practices and tools that connect technology investment with measurable business outcomes.

In short

Maximize value from investments in IT-enabled change by establishing and promoting value management awareness and understanding, standards, practices, and tools that enable technology vendors and enterprise corporate executives to collaborate in developing and executing a “roadmap to value”.

Why the Council exists

Technology investment is justified with expected business outcomes, and then very rarely revisited. The people responsible for making the case, the people responsible for delivering the change, and the people responsible for reporting the result often work from different definitions of value and different numbers.

The Council was founded to close that gap by establishing shared standards, practices and tools — so a value claim made during a sale is the same claim that gets measured after delivery.

What we do

  • Develop and promote value management standards and practices
  • Maintain the Value Management Maturity Model and a shared vocabulary
  • Teach value capability through the Value Academy
  • Convene practitioners through workgroups, events and community programmes

Who takes part

Members include value engineers and value consultants inside technology providers, presales and sales leaders, customer success and value realization teams, and enterprise executives accountable for the outcomes of IT-enabled change.
