 <description>&lt;p&gt;Sadly “Because everybody else is doing it” is one of the most effective business cases out there.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There are some un-stated business cases out there as well:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Hopefully doing this will deflect attention from what we really need to be doing without us having to admit what a b****s up we’ve made in the past”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“If we are lucky the consultants will say what we are all too scared to say”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Of course I know this isn’t going to work but at least I can say I tried”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I guess that in an ideal world  a business case would actually come from the business, not from IT.&lt;/p&gt;
