Then focused on BBC, adapted from international good practice from: • Victoria (Australia) for Investment Logic Mapping for early problem definition and benefit identification • UK for 5 Case Model and staged BBC approach Currently reviewing Monitoring and Assurance 3
Why better business cases? Better business cases lead to: • better decisions • better investments • achievement of better outcomes. . Key stakeholders include: • Decision makers- better evidence-based assurance value for money • Management-early engagement on direction • Business case developers-clear expectations and support • Reviewers-early engagement and common language • Private sector service providers-early market soundings and clearly specified service requirements 4

Overview: What is expected? If a proposal requires approval: • Two-stage process for high risk and/or large scale projects - Stage 1: Based on the Indicative Business Case - Stage 2: Based on Detailed Business Case • Single stage process for non high risk/low scale • Application of the 5 case model Potential use of Programme Business Case if the project/s are part of a wider programme The process is about thinking not writing 6
The 5 Case Model Any business case addresses 5 key questions: 1. Is there a compelling case for change? 2. Does the selected option optimise public value? 3. Is the potential Deal achievable and attractive to the market place? 4. Is the spending proposal affordable? 5. How will the proposal be delivered successfully? 7

Who needs to be involved early? The Better Business Cases process is most successful when: • Agencies engage with central and monitoring agencies (reviewers) in the early stages of each business case deliverable to ensure the business case will be fit for purpose. Agreement will be sought on: – Type of business case – Timing and nature of decisions required – Scale and risk of the proposal – Scope of analysis required for each case-including reviewers criteria/evidence – Level of effort and cost for development and assurance – Scope of the engagement during the development of the business case Use the scoping document to secure early agreement 10
