Unrealised Value (UV)

Unlocking potential through insights into untapped opportunities and innovation for enhanced organisational value.

Unrealized Value is one of the four key value areas of Evidence‑Based Management and represents a group of measures focused on the potential value that could be captured with further improvements. Instead of being a single metric, it includes various indicators that assess untapped opportunities, such as latent market demand or areas for innovation. These combined measures offer insight into how much additional value remains available for the organization.

Overview

Unrealised Value refers to the potential value that an organisation has yet to capture, highlighting opportunities for improvement and innovation. It encompasses a range of indicators that assess untapped possibilities, such as latent market demand or areas ripe for enhancement. By focusing on Unrealised Value, teams can identify where they can optimise processes, innovate products, or better meet customer needs, ultimately leading to increased competitiveness and sustainability.

This concept is crucial for enabling teams to deliver value predictably and sustainably, as it encourages a proactive approach to recognising and addressing gaps in performance and capability. By systematically measuring and analysing Unrealised Value, organisations can create a culture of continuous improvement, fostering an environment where teams are motivated to explore new ideas and solutions. This long-term, systemic focus not only enhances current operations but also positions the organisation to adapt to changing market conditions and customer expectations.

Understanding Unrealised Value empowers teams to make informed decisions about where to invest resources and effort, ensuring that they are not just reacting to immediate challenges but are also strategically planning for future growth and success. This perspective shifts the focus from merely delivering current value to actively seeking out and realising potential value, which is essential for thriving in today’s dynamic business landscape.
