From a business-layer gap log to a costed roadmap and business case A gap log on its own changes nothing: the gaps are grouped into a roadmap sequenced by dependency and value, then justified by a business case that sets the investment against the expected benefit, which is what turns the analysis into a defensible plan.
From a business-layer gap log to a costed roadmap and business case
A two-row wrap of three stages under their own headers. The top row pairs the gap log, which records what is missing and what is too slow across structural and performance gaps, with the roadmap, sequenced by dependency and value, joined by an accent arrow labelled grouped into. A second accent arrow labelled justified by drops from the centre of the roadmap box into a wide, accent-tinted business case slab below. The slab is split by a hairline into two panes: on the left the defensible investment decision, and on the right the pay-off it weighs, build cost and delivery risk against value delivered and dependencies met, kept only while that balance holds.
