In a hybrid project delivery approach, the business case is the artifact that ensures project benefits have been identified. It provides the rationale for the project by outlining the expected business benefits and aligning them with the organization’s strategic goals. The business case is developed during the project initiation phase and is used to justify the investment in the project. It includes an analysis of the costs, benefits, risks, and opportunities associated with the project.

= PMBOK® Guide and PMP® certification materials which discuss the importance of the business case in project management, particularly in hybrid and other project delivery approaches. The business case is a critical document that supports decision-making processes and ensures that the project aligns with the organization’s strategic objectives and delivers the intended benefits.
