What is a Feasibility Study
• Is this a good business idea?



  Helps answer the question of whether to go
  forward with the business idea.
• The process of determining whether an
  entrepreneur’s idea is a viable foundation for
  creating a successful business

                • Preliminary
                  evaluation of idea to
                  determining if it‟s
                  worth pursuing
                • To determine how

                  is overall as a „home
   Analysis       for a new business

                  profitably
When To Conduct a Feasibility
              Analysis
• Timing of Feasibility Analysis
    – After concept statement evaluation
    – After opportunity recognition, before business plan
    – Before a lot of resources are invested
•   Components of Full Feasibility Analysis
•   Market Feasibility
•   Technical Feasibility
•   Organizational/Managerial Feasibility

Evaluate Alternatives


The feasibility study helps to “frame” and “flesh-
 out” specific business scenarios so they can be
 studied in-depth.
Pre-Feasibility Study




May help sort our alternatives and determine if a full-blown feasibility
                         study is warranted
Market Assessment

• A market assessment may be conducted
  first to identify market opportunities. If no
  opportunities exist, there may be no reason
  to proceed further.
YES/NO
                     Study Results.

Outline in depth the various business scenarios examined
 and the implications, strengths and weaknesses of each.

                  Go/No Go Decision.

The feasibility study will be a major information source in
                 making this critical decision.
