The Business Case will be based on an actual business, project or organisation. This case study will be the foundation upon which the risk management plan will be developed in assessment 2. The business case study will describe the business (organisation or project), objectives, structure, stakeholders (internal and external) and market context in which it operates.
This business case must use Section 3 and 4 of AS/NZS ISO 31000:2009 Guiding Principles and Framework to define how the organisation’s vision, objectives, structure, stakeholders and framework may identify and manage organisational or business risks. The framework will include 10 identified risks in the risk register. This assessment is aimed at developing students’ understanding of the organisation or business and its context with regard to the wider community and the identification of a list of risks associated with the organisation.
Even though group collaboration is encouraged, individuals within each group will need to develop their own business case and framework, and submit an individual report based on their proposed business /organisation.
The risk management plan (assessment 2) will be based on their business or organisation defined and described in this assessment, the business case and risk framework. The business case study should be up to a maximum 1500 words (excluding appendices).
Student’s Guidelines for the Business Case
The preparation of the business case is to be completed individually and should cover the following four areas:
- Development of context, internal and external environment for the organisation– needs to be comprehensive;
- Business mission and objectives – needs to show relatedness to organisational and industry issues;
- Framework and all stakeholders; needs to be comprehensive;
- Criteria table and likelihood table across the elements;
- Risks identified – 10 (two from each of five different business framework areas). For each risk you should identify the risk owner, consequence and likelihood, risk score, cause and consequence.
