These are evaluated against mandatory criteria to determine which options are viable and should undergo further analysis</p><p> Step 2 – Evaluate Viable Options: Options that meet mandatory criteria undergo rigorous testing:</p><p>1. Options are compared using quantitative (cost/benefit) and qualitative (advantages and disadvantages) analysis</p><p>2. For the lease option, ensure you provide current, reliable and comparable market data for the type of land, building, and/or space in that commercial market location</p><p>3. Identification of financing sources for each viable option, including where applicable, Institution or landlord financing of TI’s</p><p>4. Risk assessment for each viable option</p><p> Step 3 – Summary of Options: The options analysis will result in the selection of one option as “preferable”, for which an implementation strategy will be developed </p><p>RESOURCES Ministry Business Plans Cross-ministry initiatives</p><p>Lease Concept Plan Report |Page 8 of 25 Table 43.

Identify all Options </p><p>OPTIONS Type of Project Option Capital (include category of project) Description or Non-Capital Status Quo Option #1 Option #2 Option #3</p><p> Identify mandatory criteria that the options must meet. For example, mandatory criteria may include:</p><p>- Infrastructure Improvements: FCI improvement and/or reduction of life safety & occupational health risks</p><p>- Cost Effectiveness: Funding partnerships and/or cost benefits throughout lifecycle</p><p>- Innovation: Demonstrates sustainable solutions and/or collaboration</p><p>- Strategic Alignment: Alignment with government priorities (e.g. Ministry Service Plan) and Institutional priorities (e.g., mission statement, master planning etc.)</p><p>- Quality Education: Improves student learning outcomes, and/or improve access to learning and/or utilization rates</p><p>- Location of the facility</p><p>- Timing – when is the space or facility required</p><p>- Control – what degree of control does the institutions require over the space or facility (this should be justifiable)</p><p> Options are evaluated against mandatory criteria to determine if any options can be dismissed. For example:</p><p>-Strategic – the option does not conform to the Institution’s Campus Master Plan, etc.</p><p>-Quality Education – the option does not accommodate the FTE forecast at maximum utilization rates </p><p>Lease Concept Plan Report |Page 10 of 25 Lease Concept Plan Report |Page 11 of 25 9 Step 2: Evaluate Viable Options Options that meet mandatory criteria are evaluated through quantitative (cost/benefit) analysis, qualitative (advantages/disadvantages) analysis, financing, and preliminary risk assessment </p><p>9.1 Quantitative (Cost/Benefit) Analysis A quantitative analysis provides a preliminary estimate of annual capital and operating costs, including program/service delivery and facility lifecycle costs </p><p> Prepare a 20-year net present value cash flow analysis for the shortlisted viable options. The term of the cash flow analysis should equal to one of the following:</p><p>- If asset is financed with debt – use the term for the debt/mortgage.</p><p>- If no debt financing required – use the expected life of the new asset.</p><p> Ensure that assumptions are adequately disclosed for revenue and cost estimates</p><p> For the lease option, forecast lease rates for the entire 20 year period</p><p> Include schedules detailing the annual principal and interest payments to accompany the cash flow forecast, as well as for total capital cost estimate</p><p> The cash flow analysis should reflect the total ‘incremental’1 costs and revenues associated with each project option being evaluated, not the ‘full cost’ including existing programs and facilities. However, in cases where the new project/program also results in additional costs or cost savings in existing facilities or programs, these amounts are also to be included in the project incremental cash flow</p><p>1 Incremental costs refer to the additional costs associated with the new program only. Costs for the existing programs prior to the new development would not be included. </p><p>Lease Concept Plan Report |Page 12 of 25 Table 45.
