Select one correct answer from the list:
Options:
A.
New hypotheses behind its problem
B.
A detailed design of the concept
C.
A preliminary business plan/business case for the concept
D.

GInI’s CInP Handbook explains that post-selection in InMS Stage 3, concepts move to Stage 4, where development includes creating a " preliminary business plan/business case. " This document outlines the concept’s value proposition, market potential, and initial financials—enough to justify further investment without full detail. It’s a Mid Zone activity, bridging evaluation to execution. " New hypotheses " (A) is Front End, pre-selection. " Detailed design " (B) is Back End, post-business case. " Fully-detailed forecast " (D) is overly precise for this stage—GInI seeks preliminary viability, not 95% confidence yet. Option C aligns with GInI’s process, matching the original answer (despite typo), reflecting a pragmatic step to validate concepts strategically—a GInI method for staged commitment.
