Feasibility study

1. Brief service summary

Examine the conditions necessary to carry out an initiative before committing substantial resources. The study connects needs, options and constraints to identify what appears achievable, what remains uncertain and what requires additional expertise.

2. Your needs

You are considering a new activity, a change in your offering or a transformation, but several conditions still need checking. Demand, resources, organisation or delivery constraints may call the initial scenario into question.

You wish to have structured analysis to continue, adjust, defer or abandon the initiative.

3. Objectives of the engagement

The engagement aims to assess the coherence of the envisaged scenario and identify its prerequisites. It helps compare alternatives, identify blockers and define checks needed before a decision.

Conclusions distinguish established elements, assumptions and conditions that must still be satisfied.

4. Indicative scope

Depending on the initiative, the study may examine needs, market, resources, organisation, economic parameters and identified constraints. The depth of each dimension depends on the decision questions and expertise actually mobilised.

Areas requiring specialist technical, legal or financial studies are highlighted and scoped.

5. Possible delivery arrangements

Document analysis, interviews with those responsible and scenario comparisons may be combined. Specialist consultations may be proposed, without presuming that they are available or included in the engagement.

6. Possible deliverables

Deliverables may include an options analysis, a summary of feasibility conditions, an uncertainties register and a conditional recommendation on next steps.

7. Conditions and limitations

The conclusion depends on the scope and information examined; it is not a delivery guarantee. The engagement is not detailed engineering, the obtaining of an authorisation or a financing commitment. For a formalised project requiring an in-depth business case, its relationship with service 16.02 must be specified.
