A feasibility study is an in-depth assessment of the viability of a new project or business idea. It evaluates various aspects like market demand, technical requirements, economic sustainability, and potential risks. This study is crucial for determining whether a project is worth pursuing before investing significant time, money, and resources. It helps in making informed decisions and reduces the chances of project failure by identifying potential roadblocks early.

A comprehensive feasibility study typically assesses several factors, including:

• Market Potential: Understanding the target market, customer needs, and competition.

• Financial Viability: Evaluating costs, revenue projections, and potential returns.

• Technical Feasibility: Assessing the technical resources and capabilities needed for success.

• Legal Considerations: Identifying regulatory and compliance requirements.

• Risk Assessment: Understanding the risks involved and planning for mitigation.

Each factor plays a critical role in the overall assessment of whether a project is viable.

Entrepreneurs, business owners, investors, or anyone considering starting a new business venture or expanding an existing one should consider conducting a feasibility study. It is particularly useful for high-investment projects or when entering unfamiliar markets. Startups seeking investors also benefit, as a feasibility study provides data that can help secure funding by showcasing the project’s potential.

A feasibility study is crucial as it:

• Prevents wastage of resources by determining if a project is viable before significant investments are made.

• Identifies new opportunities that may not have been previously considered.

• Provides an objective analysis that helps stakeholders make informed decisions.
