Every project-performing
organization needs a consistent approach to project evaluation. Such an
approach should reflect genealogical dependencies between projects. The
costs of the investment projects that enabled the execution of a given
project, as well as income expected from operational projects as a
consequence of their execution, must be components of a consistent project
evaluation model. In order to handle such dependencies, two concepts are
introduced: the ancestor / descendant project relationship and a set
of projects defined by this relationship called project family. On
the basis of these concepts, components of financial evaluation of a
project – costs, income and savings – are divided into inherited, direct
and expected. A model covering all these components of project evaluation,
named Unified Project Evaluation Model, is presented. The concept of
project families may be utilized for purposes other than those of financial
analysis, like tracing the diffusion of innovation in an organization.
