IN THE REVIEWER'S SHOES

Ask yourself, does this section of your business case answer the following questions:

•  Is a well structured and resourced project team presented? Are there dedicated resources assigned to the P3 project? Are these dedicated resources sufficiently qualified to undertake their role through the planning, procurement, design, construction and operating periods of the project?

•  Are the members of the project team and their roles and responsibilities clearly defined?

•  Has the sponsor clearly articulated its understanding of the resourcing commitments associated with P3 procurement? Is there funding or other approvals in place to support the project team?

•  Are resourcing constraints addressed in a manner that demonstrates foresight and adequate planning on behalf of the sponsor?

•  Are external advisors going to be used? If so, how will they be used? How will they be procured?
