benefit assessment

Benefit assessment is the process of evaluating the potential advantages or positive impacts of a project, policy, or decision. It involves analyzing how the proposed action could improve outcomes, such as quality of life, efficiency, or safety, and weighing those benefits against any costs or risks. This helps decision-makers determine whether the proposed change is worthwhile and aligns with broader goals. By systematically examining these factors, benefit assessment supports informed, responsible decisions that aim to maximize positive results for individuals, organizations, or society as a whole.
