Why each option
The documents describing why a project is needed, its alignment with company objectives, and expected revenue comprise a business case.
A business case is a document that justifies the initiation of a project by outlining the reasons for it, its alignment with organizational strategic objectives, and the anticipated benefits, including financial returns like revenue. It provides the necessary information for decision-makers to determine if the project is worthwhile and viable.
A charter formally authorizes the project and names the project manager, but it doesn't detail the financial justification or comprehensive strategic alignment in the same depth as a business case.
Key project deliverables are the specific outputs or results the project is expected to produce, not the justification for the project itself.
Project objectives define what the project aims to achieve, but they are a component of the business case and other project documents, not the overarching document describing the project's necessity and financial benefit.
Concept tested: Project initiation documentation - Business Case
