Our methodology
-
01
Aligning with Stakeholders
We work closely with business owners and key stakeholders to clearly define the project’s objectives, requirements, constraints, and expected outcomes. This ensures the business case is rooted in the business needs and strategic priorities.
-
02
Make or Buy analysis
We conduct a thorough comparison of internal production versus outsourcing; evaluating financial impact, operational feasibility, risks, scalability, and long-term ROI. This provides a fact-based recommendation on the most advantageous option for your organisation.

03
Market & supplier assessment
We perform a strategic review of the supplier landscape to identify potential partners relevant to your project, understand their capabilities, and gauge their level of interest. Using targeted RFI processes, we gather indicative pricing, service models, and feasibility insights to validate your assumptions and strengthen the financial and operational foundations of your business case, connecting this work with our expertise in Vendor Selection & Sourcing.

What we don’t do
We believe in providing thorough and realistic business case analyses, hence we:
- Avoid focusing just on cost, and neglect the broader impact on the organization and client satisfaction.
- Do not overlook key supplier market insights like market dynamics and receptivity, or any additional information received from the potential suppliers.
- Never neglect key project dimensions like project risks, long-term development or the project’s life-cycle and associated requirements.
