The second article — “Moneyproject” — focused on how the three sides of the well-known triple constraint triangle (shown in Figure 1 below) can each be quantified in terms of their contribution to the expected project profit.

In that second article, we showed how, with all three sides of the triangle monetized, we can measure project…
