2A(4.9) Business Case And Approval
Strategic Sourcing Framework

Description

Preparing the Business Case and obtaining approval for continuation is the last activity of the Sourcing Strategy Development 
phase that concludes the evaluation and development of the sourcing approach.  
Objective:

To document the information needed to decide whether to support a proposed sourcing strategy before significant 

resources are committed and to obtain approval for proceeding with the implementation of the sourcing strategy.

Output:
  • Approved Business Case

See Annexure A for the Business Case Structure. This will assist you in documenting the business 
case as you progress instead of trying to document everything at the end.
The Business Case is the one document that pulls together all the key elements from all the stages so far.
  • This should contain a review of all the process evidence of stakeholder engagements, research, analysis findings, ideas generation, etc.
  • A profile of the category with documented impacts and risks
  • Recommended sourcing approach
  • Evidence of alignment with procurement plan and strategic objectives.
