The Director of Pittville University has resigned during the procurement process. As a result, the Deputy Director is now acting as Director. The other schools have now withdrawn their objections to Pittville University running the new campus. It is thought that the delivery approach could be revised so that Pittville University manages all 16-18-year-olds education and further cost reductions could be achieved. There is no option in the OBC that provides this delivery approach with the service solution of a new campus.
Should the preferred option be reviewed in the FBC? (Select one)

• A. No, because the preferred option should remain unchanged once selected at OBC.
• B. Yes, because the FBC must demonstrate that the preferred option offers better VFM than the other available options.
• C. No, because the lack of a Director of Pittville University would not affect a delivery approach involving Pittville University.
• D. Yes, because the FBC should consider the organization's strategy for managing contractual change.

Answer the following question about the content of the Outline Business Case (OBC). The OBC is based on the following preferred way forward:

Column 1 is a list of true statements from the Economic Case in the OBC. Column 2 is a selection of some of the Business Case headings. For each statement in Column 1, select from Column 2 the Business Case heading under which the statement should be recorded. Each selection from Column 2 can be used once, more than once or not at all.

The best and final offers have been returned for the delivery of the new campus. The preferred supplier was Piaffeco, which was the same supplier that delivered the neighbouring Marshgate High School.
Should Economic Appraisals be prepared for the best and final offers for the discarded service providers on the short list?

• A. Yes, because the FBC should provide Economic Appraisals for all options.
• B. No, because updating the FBC with best and final offers should be done as part of the Commercial Case.
• C. Yes, because the reasons for rejecting potential service providers from the long list to the short list stage should be provided.
• D. No, because only the public sector comparator (PSC) should be updated in light of knowledge gained from the procurement.
