Context

The journey of the framework offers analysis documents beyond the baseline: KPI definitions, a Business Model Canvas, a BPMN process model and a riskiest-assumption test. The project is a single-evening course exercise with six measurable success criteria already in BC-001, no commercial model, no business process and no costly belief to test.

Options evaluated:

  1. Write all four documents: complete, but each needs a review and adds no decision that the Business Case does not already hold.
  2. Write only the KPI definitions: the success criteria would be restated in another file.
  3. Skip all four and record the reason here.

Decision

Skip the KPI definitions, the Business Model Canvas, the BPMN process model and the riskiest-assumption test. The Business Case's Success Criteria table carries the measures, and the baseline documents (Business Case, Stakeholder Analysis, Project Plan, milestones) are not skipped.

Consequences

Positive:

  • Less documentation to keep consistent for a small project.
  • The success criteria are stated once, in one place.

Negative:

  • A reader who expects a KPI document finds the measures in the Business Case instead.
  • If the project grows (a package published, more users), the skipped documents must be written then.

Affected Artifacts

  • BC-001 — its Success Criteria stay the only definition of the measures.
