Business Case for Project Name

Date
Project Name:
1.0 Introduction/ Background

Core business goal is to provide a variety of health care services across the globe,
management believes that company can reduce internal costs and increase business by
developing recreation and wellness intranet project

2.0 Business Objective

MYH's strategic goals include reduction of internal costs, increasing cross-selling of
products, and exploiting new Web-based technologies to help employees, customers, and
suppliers work together to improve development and delivery of its health care products
and service. The Recreation and Wellness Intranet Project will allow employees to
register for company- sponsored recreational programs, such as soccer, softball, bowling,
jogging, walking, and other sports. It will also enable employees to regıster for company-
sponsored classes and programs to help them manage their weight, reduce stress, stop
smoking, and manage other health-related issues. By using this new application,
management will be able to track data on employee involvement in these recreational and
health management programs, as well as offer incentives for people to join the programs
and do well in them (eg incentives for achieving weight, winning sports team
competition, etc.). Furthermore, this project will help decrease internal costs for the
company.

3.0 Current Situation and Problem/Opportunity Statement

MYH already has an Intranet that is connected to the systems that track employee
expenses submitted to the company and the company's costs to the insurance providers.
MYH, Inc pays 20% more than the industry average for employee health care premiums,
primarily to poor health of its employees. There is an opportunity to provide an
application that will help employees improve their health within one year of its rollout. so
that the company can negotiate lower health insurance premiums.

4.0 Critical Assumption and Constraints

The proposed application must be a valuable asset to MYH, Employees must actively
support the project, and must pay for itself in one year after it is implemented, by
reducing intermal costs and improving health of the employees . The Project Manager
must lead the effort and the project team must include employee representatives, as well
as consultants that would lead the company-sponsored recreational activities, health-
management classes and programs. The new system must be compatible with the existing
Intranet system and should be completed in six-month period and should not exceed the
budget of $200,000.

5.0 Analysis of Options and Recommendation

here are three options for addressing opportunity: 1. Do nothing. Business,is doing well,
and we can continue without reducing costs. 2. Purchase access to spiecialized software
to support this new capability with little in-house development. 3. Design and implement
the new intranet capabilities in-house using mostly existing hardware and software.
Based on discussions with stakcholders, we believe that option 3 is the best option

6.0 Preliminary Project Requirements

The main features of Recreation and Wellness Intranct Project include the following: 1.
Allow employees to register for company-sponsored recreational programs, such as
soccer, softball, bowling, jogging, walking, and other sports. 2. Allow employees to
register for company-sponsored classes and programs to help them manage their weight,
reduce stress, stop smoking, and manage other health-related issues. 3. Track data on
employee involvement in these recreational and health-management programs. 4. Offer
incentives for people join the programs and do well in them (e.g. incentives for achieving
weight, winning sports team competition, etc.) 5. Other features suggested by users, if
they add value to the business. (United States)

7.0 Budget Estimate and Financial Analysis

A preliminary estimate for the costs for the entire project is $200,000. Project benefits are
based on a reduction of costs for health insurance premiums paid to insurance company,
If each of our employees used this feature of our intranet and improved their health
condition, it would save at least $30 per employee per year for full-time employees over
the next four years. Therefore, total financial benefit for 20,000 full-time employees,
would be $2,400,000.
