What’s inside the Slideworks Business Case Template?
The Slideworks Business Case Template is a 271-slide PowerPoint and Google Slides template with 5 Excel models and a Word document, created by ex-McKinsey, BCG, and Bain consultants. It is structured around the Situation-Complication-Resolution (SCR) framework – the storyline structure top consulting firms use to present a case for change.
The template takes you through every element a complete business case needs: articulating the business problem or opportunity, evaluating and comparing solution options, quantifying financial impact (including ROI and NPV, supported by the Excel models), identifying risks with mitigation plans, and laying out an implementation plan and governance model. Three full-length worked examples are included - a technology investment, an HR initiative, and an energy plant refurbishment - showing how a finished business case reads in three different contexts.
Business professionals typically use this template when seeking budget approval or stakeholder buy-in for a project, comparing investment options, or formalizing a proposal into a decision-ready document.
