Business Case Development
Securing investment, whether from public bodies, private investors, or blended funding sources, requires a clear, credible and compelling business case. From small local projects seeking grant support to major innovation infrastructure initiatives requiring multi-million-pound backing, we help you shape business cases that demonstrate value, impact and deliverability. Our role is to ensure your case is robust and aligned with funder or investor requirements, giving you the strongest chance of success.
AT OPTIMAT WE:
- Apply extensive experience in developing business cases using HM Treasury’s Green Book and the five-case business model, ensuring compliance with government standards and funder expectations.
- Provide independent appraisal of projects and options, giving you confidence in the choices you make and the investments you pursue.
- Work collaboratively with you to write and refine funding bids, whether preparing the full submission or supporting technical elements such as the economic case, so your proposal is well-evidenced and persuasive.
Our approach combines policy and economic expertise with sector knowledge to produce business cases that are investment-ready and capable of securing the support needed for delivery.
