Where are potential key contractual arrangements identified?

The identification of potential key contractual arrangements is primarily found in the commercial case component of the Outline Business Case (OBC). This component is focused on how the project will be structured commercially, including the management of contracts and the relationships with suppliers or partners. It lays out the commercial viability of the project and ensures that all relevant considerations regarding contracts are incorporated into the business case.

Understanding the commercial case is vital because it helps stakeholders identify how goods and services will be procured, the terms of contractual relationships, payment mechanisms, and how these arrangements will support the project's financial objectives. Therefore, analyzing the commercial case thoroughly is essential in ensuring that the project is not only feasible from a financial perspective but also that it is well-positioned for operational success through effective contractual relationships.
