Strategic Planning and the Business Case process is a fundamental early stage of a programme or project. A robust business case is vital for securing resources and gaining stakeholder buy-in for complex and large-scale change projects.
 

Our approach to delivering an effective and successful business case is guided by four fundamental principles:

  • clarity of scope

  • critical challenge

  • collaboration and trust

  • knowledge transfer.


Underpinning these are the application of time management practices, expert project management skills and techniques and the sharing of best practice. 
 

In addition to Strategic Planning and Business Case expertise, gbpartnerships have a multifaceted team that can support the different workstreams that feed into a business case; drawing on a wide range of professional backgrounds including: project and programme managers, surveyors, accountants, engineers, health planners, architects and clinicians.

Expert Better Business Cases Practitioners

A robust business case is vital for securing resources and gaining stakeholder buy-in for complex and large-scale change projects.

While business cases can be delivered in house, bringing in external support can be an effective way to not only supplement internal capacity, but also secure independent challenge from a ‘critical friend’ with experience of similar situations gained elsewhere.

 

At gbpartnerships consult, we have a large team with a track record of delivering successful business cases for NHS and Local Authority organisations.

 

This experience is underpinned by the Better Business Cases™ accreditation, a detailed knowledge of complex approval processes and relationships with approvers and approval bodies, to help throughout the process, providing credibility to the overall business case submission.

HM Treasury's Green Book Guidance & the Five Case Model

We provide an independent and transparent business case methodology, underpinned by the Better Business Cases™ accreditation.
 

This is a systematic and objective approach to all stages of the business case development process. 11 members of the gbpartnerships consult team hold either the Foundation or Practitioner level of the BBC accreditation.
 

The Better Business Cases course is based on NHS England's The Five Case Model, which is accepted best practice and embedded within the latest HM Treasury’s Green Book guidance (Central Government Guidance on appraisal and evaluation), being the UK government’s approach to planning spending proposals and enabling effective business decisions.

The Five Case Model provides decision makers and stakeholders with a proven framework for structured ‘thinking’ and assurance.
