DESCRIPTION

In today's economic climate, with an ever-increasing focus on a value-driven State Sector, it is essential that all staff within Central and Local Government are able to write sound business cases and take into account the costs and benefits of all the projects and initiatives with which they are associated.

While some staff are well versed with and apply Cost Benefit Analysis principles to all aspects of their work and the projects with which they are associated, this is not always the case. In many project business cases, costs often are indentified but not the benefits.

OBJECTIVE

The aim of this workshop, delivered over one or two days to suit, is to assist participants in developing and/or enhancing their Business Case Writing and Cost Benefit Analysis skills.

    • Generation and appraisal of options against agreed criteria
    • Assumptions, constraints and conditions
    • Description of alternatives

    • Cost Benefit Analysis templates
