Feasibility

 What is a
Feasibility
Study?
A feasibility study is a comprehensive
analysis conducted to determine the
practicality and viability of a proposed
project, idea, or plan. It involves assessing
various aspects such as technical, financial,
operational, legal, and environmental
factors to determine whether the project
can be successfully implemented.
The study aims to provide valuable insights
and data that help decision-makers make
informed choices about proceeding with or
abandoning the project.

A feasibility study is conducted prior to a

project’s undertaking such as a Franchise
project.
Principals of companies and their investors
want to ensure that any given project they
plan on developing is actually “feasible”,
and preparing a study showing this
feasibility is the main point of writing such
a report (which of course will help save
needed capital and time in the long run).
A feasibility study includes such vital
information and data as the funding needs
to complete the project, the market
opportunity, government regulations, risk
factors, strength and weaknesses, the
management team and the financials of the
company.
