Business Case Spreadsheet
This workbook is called the Business Case Spreadsheet Template (BCT). Its purpose is to provide the user with a head start in building a thorough financial analysis and justification
The BCT was constructed as a result of research and analysis of cross-industry, commercial best practices.
The delivery of the BCT is part of the Enterprise Integration Toolkit which provides a structured method, guidance and tools to DOD personnel in applying cross-industry, commercial
Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) software application procurement and project implementations per OMB circular A-94.
Overview
The BCT is a multi-tabbed Excel workbook containing pre-constructed forms for input of all key project estimates, financial analysis, sensitivity analysis and summary charting of resu
The goal of the BCT is to guide the user through the process of gathering project parameters and financial estimation input, iterating on and refining project estimates, completing a d
producing summary metrics, and, ultimately, using these results to support a "go"/"no-go" decision for project approval and funding.
The BCT allows for 3 increasingly precise methods of estimation for each major category of cost or benefit. The three estimation types are High-Level, Parametric & Actual. Many of
headings for each of these three types of estimation in the left margin.
Information flow within the BCT generally goes from tabs on the right (detail) to tabs on the left (calculation, aggregation and summarization). Therefore, navigation for user familiarit
from left (view results/outcomes at summary level) and proceed to the right (understanding of detailed input & estimations).
Conventions: Fields to be used for user input are in red text, fields carried forward or referenced by other tabs are bold, calculated fields are in black text.
Overview instructions are provided below. More detailed, supplemental instructions are provided within each tab on its use.

Instructions
1 Read the Business Case Developers Guide to understand the overall approach to developing a business case.
2 Familiarize yourself with the overall structure of the workbook, the approach used for each tab and its subsequent information flow.
3 Use the Benefits ID tab to identify all savings and revenue benefits of the potential project.
4 Perform ballpark parameter research.
5 Revise benefit scenarios in the Savings and Revenue tabs.
6 Revise Incremental Ongoing Costs, if necessary.
7 Revise Project Expenses and Project Capital tabs as this information becomes available.
8 Revise and proof workbook calculations.
Ensure "x" marks are provided in the appropriate column of the CostBenefit Summary tab and point to the most accurate/appropriate section/information in each detailed tab. At this
9 be "parametric" estimates.
10 Enter all key input parameters in the Input of Assumptions section of the Input Tornado tab. Then, create references to them from all appropriate, underlying detailed tabs.
11 Run preliminary sensitivity analysis & produce tornado diagram by using the Tornado macro.
Follow the instructions in the Input Tornado tab and within the macro, itself. NPV is recommend as the best output cell as demonstrated in the sample.
A new sheet will be created in your workbook. It will contain the new tornado diagram, sorted so that the parameters having the most influence on the output cell (NPV in our sample
contain the largest horizontal bars.

Identify high impact input parameters by looking at top of tornado (largest bars mean degree of influence).
Perform parametric research, prioritizing those parameters that were at the top of the most recent tornado diagram.
Refine accuracy of all estimates used as input parameters.
Run 2nd sensitivity analysis & produce tornado diagram.
Download SimTools and place in appropriate directory
Select key parameters and run simulation sensitivity analysis.
Produce charts.
Utilize results as recommended in the Guide
Refresh input parameters as more accurate or reliable estimates or information become available. Repeat steps 16 -19 as necessary.
After project is implemented and operations are expected to be enjoying the estimated benefits, capture actual Key Performance Indicator (KPI) data.
22 Utilize the information gathered in the step above as Actual Results-level input parameters. Ensure "x" marks in in the appropriate columns in CostBenefit Summary tab. Perform ca
ROI & summarize/chart results for use in executive presentation.
Troubleshooting
Immediately upon opening the BCT, click on the Enable Macros button to allow the proper operation of the Tornado diagramming macro for sensitivity analysis.
If you don't see the Tornado macro under the Tools\Macros sub-menu, your instance of Excel has been configured to disable macros. Please consult with your helpdesk to have mac

This tab contains various measures of financial feasibility, Return on Investment (ROI) and justification, including: Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of
Return (IRR), and Breakeven. Pulls data mainly from the Cost & Benefit Summary tab. Also pulls a few, key input parameters from Input of Assumptions area
of Input Sensitivity tab.
Also contains the underlying year-to-year estimated financial results, which roll-up into a Cash Flow (CF) analysis containing the following sub-categories:
One-time costs (expenses and capital), Ongoing Costs, Ongoing Benefits, Depreciation.
Location of all key input parameters. Also, provides workspace to run the integrated Tornado macro. This macro takes user-defined input parameters and
produces a tornado diagram. This chart allows the user to analyze the relative importance of the input parameters in terms of their influence on the outcome
of the BCT model (typically outcome is measured in 5 year NPV). This type of sensitivity analysis is in compliance with OMB circular A-74.
Summarizes major categories of costs and benefits. Acts as a rudimentary "pivot table" for user selection of level of estimate. As directed by "x" marks from
the user, the CostBenefit Summary tab pulls information from the appropriate estimation type area of each supporting, detailed workbook tabs: Savings,
Revenue, Incremental Ongoing Costs, Project Expenses & Project Capital.
Provides a workspace for user quantification of incremental cost savings benefits of a project at three, increasingly accurate/detailed levels of estimation.
Pulls key input parameters from Input of Assumptions area of Input Sensitivity tab.
Provides a workspace for quantification of incremental revenue generating benefits of a project at three, increasingly accurate/detailed levels of estimation.
Pulls key input parameters from Input of Assumptions area of Input Sensitivity tab.
Provides an approach to thinking through the potential benefit areas, benefit metrics and benefit calculations associated with a proposed project in a
commercial setting. Currently no inbound or outbound links to/from the rest of the Business Case Template.
Provides a workspace for user quantification of various, incremental, ongoing costs as a result of implementing the project. This sheet provides for this
quantification at three, increasingly accurate/detailed levels of estimation. Pulls key input parameters from Input of Assumptions area of Input Sensitivity tab.
Provides a workspace for quantification of project expenses required for project implementation. In IT projects, this typically consists of consulting, integration,
programming, related travel & expenses, and computer hardware, network equipment, or software that does not fulfill the rules for availability to depreciate
over time. Internal labor costs and associated travel & expenses are also typically counted in this category.
Provides a workspace for quantification of project capital goods required for project implementation. In IT projects this typically consists of computer
hardware, network equipment, some custom-developed computer software and some consulting. On occasion, this category might also include other capital
items such as buildings, furniture, telecommunications equipment, or building renovations.

Use
To compare projects using a common cost of capital or discount rate. NPV does not explicitly reflect the uncertainty
of the cash flow forecasts.
IRR provides a uniform measure for evaluating different projects. It is a special case of NPV.
Used to compare projects in terms of time to produce positive nominal results. Many organizations will not
undertake projects which take longer than x years to "pay for themselves"
Allows user to tailor the business case template to the specific project at hand.
Provides preliminary analysis of the sensitivity or relative strength of influence of a parameter provided in 3 point
(Minimum, Best Estimate, Maximum) range. Allows easy visualization of parameters that carry the most influence in
a model's outcome. In the Business Case Template, NPV is typically used as the best measure of BCT outcome.
