Benefits modelling and analysis is an iterative process that needs to be tailored to the context, the information available and the stakeholders to be engaged. Planning and organising the end-to-end process and preparing each workshop are an important part of the process itself.

In addition to producing a benefits model, this process also produces a benefit register and a risk register, which are used in the subsequent practices of benefits management.
