Making the Business Case for a technology solution or innovation is probably the most important thing you will walk away with. This is an important skill. After working with you team on a business case and evaluating other teams business cases, you should have a better idea of how to approach this. Make the business case for a technology solution to address a business problem for a company of your choice. Use the same framework as you used for the exercise with your team, but you can explain the parts and show the financial justification in this word document.

Some things to remember: 1. The framework: Business Context, Business Problem, Technology Solution, Financial Justification, Qualitative Benefits.

2. Explain cost savings, additional revenue generation or both. If both are possible show that because it makes a stronger case. 3. Make any assumptions you need. 4. You can make a comparison before and after or if new innovation, show how it will impact the current situation, etc. 5. Do not forget the Total Cost of Ownership (these are all the associated costs such as maintenance, training, etc.). 6. Your case can be simple it does not need to be complex to show considerable savings / benefits. 7. Show the benefits for 3 years out.
