Week 8 - Tutorial - Feasibility Study

Oakwood Community College needs a new student registration system to replace the current manual process. A feasibility study is recommended to evaluate the proposed system before development. There are four types of feasibility studies: technical, economic, operational, and schedule. The PIECES framework assesses a system's performance, information, economics, control, entry and security which are important in operational feasibility. Feasibility studies are important to identify any issues and ensure project success. Cost-benefit analysis estimates all costs and benefits and can be done after feasibility study to determine if the project should proceed. Costs include development, operational, tangible, intangible, direct, indirect, fixed, and variable which are important to consider in project planning and management
