“Engineering and finance often do not speak the same language.  In this case, the intangibles were more important to engineering, but the tangible ROI was needed to get finance aligned. When attempting to focus on the ROI, engineering struggled with deciding how exact was "good enough" for the purposes of the estimating activity. Conversely, finance struggled with activities that didn't show a direct cost savings. Utilizing the tools, along with some of the discussion points picked up during the training, helped provide the info needed to help translate and get everyone moving in the same direction. As we look ahead to the future, there will be more opportunities to share the learnings through guiding the different sides of the business on how to understand each other.” - Fortune 100 Aerospace and Defense firm
