ExplainerCompare build-vs-buy options with expected return, payback period, and risk-adjusted outcomes.

Build-vs-buy choices are usually discussed as strategy, but the operational reality comes down to implementation timing, run-cost profile, and execution risk.
This model offers one structured way to compare those paths before a team commits significant budget and delivery capacity.
