The rubber stamp for project approvals has been shelved for the last few years. Only projects that can show a direct and quick return on investment or those that have made a compelling and believable “strategic importance” pitch will be approved. The “strategic importance” pitch is very risky and can come at the cost of a project not getting approved.

The logical path for Business and IT professionals is to take the business case approach to getting projects approved. Business and project professionals have two choices right now, one is to sit on the sidelines and wait till the economic environment is better to push their project(s) through or learn how to build a convincing business case.
