Core Elements
Problem Definition & Strategic Fit
Each engagement begins by articulating the problem, rationale, and strategic context. Alignment with government priorities, policy mandates, or institutional objectives is clearly demonstrated, with options structured accordingly.
Evidence Base & Analytical Rationale
All business cases are supported by a contextual evidence base — including demographic analysis, service demand data, infrastructure condition reports, and prior investment reviews. Where appropriate, institutional and sectoral performance indicators are used to validate project need and prioritisation.
Stakeholder Positioning & Interface
Engagement is calibrated to the institutional setting — whether inter-agency coordination, funding alignment, or public–private collaboration. Stakeholder roles, approval pathways, and influence dynamics are mapped and integrated into delivery design.
Economic Case & Delivery Logic
Cases are underpinned by fit-for-purpose evaluation methodologies, including cost–benefit analysis, sensitivity testing, and qualitative benefit structuring. Delivery models are selected with reference to risk, market appetite, and implementation capacity.
Social, Environmental & Cultural Value
Feasibility assessments include qualitative and quantitative analysis of social and environmental outcomes — particularly where projects intersect with community impact, heritage considerations, or climate resilience. These co-benefits are articulated where they enhance alignment with strategic policy or funding mandates.
Governance & Assurance Structuring
Feasibility reports and business cases include governance architecture and risk frameworks aligned to decision-stage requirements — supporting assurance reviews, audit readiness, and accountability obligations.
Funding Strategy & Fiscal Fit
Each case includes a proposed funding model and financial pathway, referenced against client budget settings, forward estimates, or applicable donor frameworks. Alignment with national planning instruments, multilateral financing models, or local capital investment programs is addressed where relevant.
Output Framing & Decision Support
Deliverables are developed to inform investment and funding decisions — not just summarise analysis. Each case includes a clear recommendation pathway, implementation triggers, and optional transition support into procurement or delivery.
Feasibility work at PSDG is grounded in institutional needs, regulatory expectations, and delivery realities. Whether developing a first-pass concept or preparing a submission for Treasury, donor funding, or Board endorsement, the goal remains the same — enabling confident decision-making and setting a clear path to implementation.
