Feasibility Studies: Preparation, Analysis and Evaluation
A five-day programme on running a feasibility study from start to decision, covering study preparation and scope definition, market and commercial analysis, technical, regulatory and organisational analysis, financial analysis and evaluation, and risk, reporting and evaluation review.
Introduction
Feasibility Studies: Preparation, Analysis and Evaluation Training Course builds the full study capability that project developers, analysts, and investment professionals need to move a project idea from concept to a defensible decision. Preparation defines what will be studied. Analysis produces the evidence. Evaluation turns that evidence into a recommendation. Weak practice at any of the three stages creates approvals that rest on assumptions nobody tested. This course develops the discipline that closes those gaps. It covers study preparation, market and technical analysis, and financial evaluation. Furthermore, it applies cost estimation, financing structure, and option comparison. In addition, it develops risk assessment, reporting, and post-decision review. As a result, participants prepare, analyse, and evaluate feasibility studies with confidence.
