The same project, read twice - once as its author wrote it, once as an appraisal officer reads it. The second reading looks for one thing the first rarely states plainly: what repays the money, and what happens to that if the project underperforms.

A project can be entirely worth doing and still not be bankable, if nothing about it produces a measurable return or saving a funder can point to. Recognising that distinction early saves months spent writing a proposal for the wrong kind of finance.
