Responsibilities
Review documents (such as business cases) supporting funding requests for capital projects. Our review of the business case is to make sure the issues are clearly explained, justifications for the investment are sound, alternatives are discussed and properly supported, and the project and funding request are in compliance with the financial policy and project management practices.

The deliverable of our review is a briefing memo (typically 3 to 5 pages) summarizing what we have reviewed and any key issues identified.

We do not prepare budget, forecast, cost reports or variance analysis for projects.
