FORM INSTRUCTIONS
An EFS approval request consists of two parts. The first part is the Business Case form, which describes your agency's proposed project in detail. The second is the
Cost Benefit Analysis (this form), which displays the dollar amounts for your proposed project.
There are four tabs (worksheets) to the Cost Benefit Analysis form. Of these four tabs, you need to enter information into three of the tabs. The tabs are color coded. Enter the data
impacting your agency in the Agency tab (green tab), data impacting other state agencies (if applicable) in the Other State Agencies tab (blue tab), and data impacting your
customers in the Customers tab (orange tab). Then the Summary tab (purple tab) automatically computes totals of the amounts that you entered into the other three tabs. You
do not need to enter anything into the purple Summary tab.
General Instructions
Read all of the Cost Benefit Analysis form instructions.
Use the Cost Benefit Analysis form to summarize the revenues and costs associated with your proposed electronic payments project.
The Cost Benefit Analysis form is required to be submitted to OFM along with the EFS Business Case form.
The amounts entered on these tabs should support and match the amounts and assumptions included in sections 2 and 3 of the EFS Business Case form.
The Cost Benefit Analysis form should include amounts that impact your agency, as well as, other state agencies, and the customers, as applicable.
When you enter amounts into the Agency, Other State Agencies, and Customer tabs, formulas will automatically carry over these amounts to the Summary tab and calculate and enter
grand totals for you.
The EFS Cost Benefit Analysis form should net to a positive amount on the Summary tab.
Enter only in the gray shaded cells in which there are no formulas present. Agency Name:
Do not add rows or columns to this worksheet. Project Title:
