Business Case Assignment

A Business Case is a document that details a specific business problem, considers a broad range of options to address that problem, and then builds the case in favour of one of those options. It provides an argument that justifies the expense, the risk and the resources necessary, as well as any potential benefits for, or risk to, the reputation or brand. It usually has an emphasis on budget, but also considers other factors.

The purpose of the report is to help a specific organization make the best decision about an important initiative by fully exploring the potential benefits and problems associated with the options available.
