• Compiling user needs.
• Facilitating specification workshops.
• Two-level planning – both for the entire building phase and for the coming sprint/iteration.
• Facilitation of the building phase in the form of sprints/iterations.
• How and where you can make the sustainability contribution of the projects and companies visible.

Benefits for the course participant
After completing the course each participant will be able to:

• Contribute to sustainability through your projects.
• Deliver sustainable projects on time – or ahead of time.
• Frame and structure sustainable projects.
• Create structured data that can be used quickly and efficiently to adjust the project deliverable and the features of the deliverable. All in collaboration with the steering group, the client, the supplier, and others influencing the project’s value creation in the entire scope of the sustainability, until the deliverables are to be redeployed.
• Create better results – and faster.
• Conduct projects online.
• Work in a way that makes job satisfaction and energy level come together month after month.
• Ensure learning during the entirety of the project.
• Create transparency in the project.
• Facilitate good collaboration across organisations, divisions, and cultures.
• Make sure that the project is under control.
• Make sure that the value of sustainability that the projects create can be reported.

Benefits for the company

• Opportunity to make your projects sustainable.
• Better chance of complying with the sustainability legislation in force.
• Make visible the value of sustainability that your projects create by reporting to, e.g. the UN.
• Transparency in how your company wishes to contribute to sustainability.
• Attracting and retaining those employees, who find that sustainability is important.
• Opportunity to reuse specifications from one project to another similar project. Here we have seen a reduction in time of up to 80% of the specification work.
• New employees become adept at implementing project deliverables.
• Quicker project completion by less do-over work.
• Value creation early on in the building phase. This provides the company with the flexibility to redeploy employees if priorities change.
• If you have a stage-gate project model, implementing this agile project model becomes manageable.
• A joint project approach to be used across the company.
• When you chose this project approach in the collaboration with your suppliers, the company’s employees tend to be more familiar with the project approach than the changing suppliers. This increases job satisfaction and ensures the necessary insight into the project’s course.
