A. Introduction

DELETE THIS BOX BEFORE PRESENTING

Business Objectives Business objectives complete the business case subject statement, “what the case is about.” Good subject statements are built around objectives—business objectives, financial objectives, functional objectives, or operational objectives.

Why move the focus from action to objective? Reaching objectives has financial and other business value that can be made tangible. The value of an action that is unrelated to an objective (“Training design engineers,” or “purchasing a database license”) is much harder to quantify in a compelling way. In brief, when a proposed action supports an objective (and all proposed actions do, in a rational environment), the appropriate subject for the business case is the full range of resources and actions required to reach the objective.
