Feasibility Study

Major Tech Corporation is a large, Australian based provider of information services. One of the organisation’s strategic imperatives is to develop a robust and effective client management system (CMS) to effectively engage with existing clients and also expand the existing clientele.

You have been appointed to the role of Business Systems Analyst/Business Analyst and are required to conduct a feasibility study and report on the findings in a logical and coherent manner, and provide this to key stakeholders as well as the project manager. You will need to develop a sound strategy, with relevant supporting project material to identify a suitable CMS product for Major Tech Corporation.

Major Tech requires a system which will align with contemporary CMS products capabilities (determined through the latest research), as well as providing an enhanced level of service to clients and a more streamlined workflow within Major Tech, to enhance staff efficiencies. To that end Major Tech would like to receive a detailed feasibility study to indicate whether it is viable and desirable to implement a new system to replace the existing spreadsheet-based system currently in place.

This assignment involves the development of a feasibility study around the viability of implementing a new client management system at Major Tech. The document should clearly identify the current trends in CMS systems and any relevant inhibitors that may make the project unviable. To start the feasibility study you should conduct a review of trends and practices surrounding CMS products – particularly those in similar organisational environments, and should include:

CMS Trend findings	Marketing approach and strategy
Risks and issues	Organisational needs and requirements
Research approach and methodology	Staff resourcing requirements
Schedule	Technology considerations (pros and cons)
Product/Service Marketplace	Description of product/service under review
Financial projections	Findings and recommendations

The above inclusions should act as a guide for the preparation of the feasibility study, and may vary based on additional material gathered during the research phase or during other exploratory activities.
