Description
Main Description

The business justification describes the need to invest in the project or product, the cost of investing, and the expected returns or benefits to the business. This information supports investment decisions, based on the cost-benefit analysis.

Key Considerations

Depending on the process followed and the scope and complexity of investment, the business justification may suffice to make funding decisions. Alternatively, it may be part of a more complete business case that includes additional detail, implementation plans, and so on.
