Benefits Management Policy

The Benefits Management Policy (BMP) defines how benefits must be managed across the Australian Government digital and ICT portfolio. The Policy supports agencies to deliver digital and ICT outcomes by detailing investment oversight requirements and providing guidance on benefits management. 

The BMP ensures that agencies understand the requirements to successfully deliver the outcomes that Australians need by enabling effective oversight and reporting of investment outcomes across the Government’s digital and ICT investment portfolio
