Abstract
Benefit points complement the concept of points-based estimation.We showed how to use points estimates for both benefit and cost in various project and portfolio management activities. One can also adapt a range of other models that we did not cover (see e.g. [3, 1, 2]) to points-based estimates. Points-based estimates give rise to project management templates into which you can instantiate various monetary values, for example, various scenarios according to uncertainty assessments.
