Week 3 Assignment 1: Proposed Solutions Part 1 of 3

Two construction workers discuss a building's foundation

Proposed Solutions are the final piece of a Business Case that decision-makers will consider when they are deciding on whether to move forward with the plan, program, or project that is being proposed in a business case. Proposed solutions should be detailed and speak specifically to the issues that are outlined in the “Evaluation of the Problem” section of the business case. This assignment is replicated in Week 4 and Week 5, with each week’s assignment, including this week (Week 3,) covering different solutions for different work that is conducted on construction project sites.
