FEASIBILITY STUDIES AND BUSINESS PLANS
Be
sure you know what you want and what to expect when pursuing a new venture. A
lot of time, resources and hard money can be saved in knowing what to do, what
not to do and the order in which to do it. A good rule of thumb is to never
commission a business plan until a feasibility study has been written.
A
feasibility study is normally less than 30% of the cost of a formal business
plan and although a feasibility study will not be anywhere close to the in-depth
“nuts and bolts” view of a business plan, it will do exactly what the name
implies. It will show if a project is feasible before other steps are taken or
indeed paid for.
The differences between a feasibility study and a business plan.
A
feasibility study is designed to discover if a business or project is “feasible”
or not: (In short, does the business or project warrant further investment of
time, money and further study or is it a non-starter? ) A feasibility study is a
relatively inexpensive way to safeguard against the wastage of further
investment (will it work or won’t it).
If a project is seen to be
feasible from the results of the study, the next logical step is to commission a
full business plan.
Will the investment made in the feasibility study itself then be wasted? No,
because the research and information uncovered in the study will be of good use
in the business planning stage and will reduce research time and therefore the
cost of the business plan.
A
business plan is designed to “plan” in advance how a business or project will be
started, implemented and managed: (In short, a working “blue print” for the
entire operation of the business or project). Business plans are commissioned
for one of three reasons: Reorganization, investment / funding or a management
blueprint for new operation.
Man never plans to fail, he only fails to plan!
FEASIBILITY STUDIES
demonstrate to a prospective project owner or investor that a given concept is
financially viable and whether further study and / or a business plan is
warranted.
For a feasibility study, basic data is obtained from the client through a series
of queries, questions and meetings, wherein the client provides some of the
research and other data and facts need to be gained from a variety of sources.
The typical feasibility study contains, among other items, notes on financial
projections, a general description of the business, general details describing
how the company / project will be formed, managed and marketed, statements
concerning the competition and a cash-flow projections based on estimates and
industry averages. Further notes can be included as to general details of the
project and revelations found during the research stage. The study will normally
be completed quickly and in very general format compared to that of a business
plan. A feasibility study should answer five questions.
1. Will it work or not?
2. Is it profitable or not?
3. What will it basically cost to fund or
start?
4. Is it worth doing?
5. Is it worth commissioning a business plan?
BUSINESS PLANS A Business
Plan is a detailed blueprint for building a given company. A business plan
contains all that the Feasibility study has plus specific time-lines, detailed
budgets with monthly and seasonal forecasts, letters of intent, resumes of
staff, background, competition, strengths & weaknesses, work sheets and a full
notations, appendix and all related and required documents that will be
referenced as the company is being developed.
A
well-written business plan will show what revenues can be expected and when to
expect them, what overheads and expenses will need to be paid and exactly when
they will be due.
It
will also show staffing levels and salaries along with costs of employment,
sales levels with monthly and seasonal trends, setup costs, building/office
costs, utility and telephone costs, legal, insurance and accounting costs,
office furniture and supplies costs and a myriad of other cost projections as
well as legal requirements and conformation to regulations.
In
addition to the revenue projections and costs, the business plan will feature
sections on demographics, sales and sales methodology, objectives, expansion
plans, contingency exercises, product and services market introductions,
regulatory requirements and the laws of City, State and Federal governments
relating to the business / project and much more.
A
well-written business plan can help maximize potential and minimize overheads,
liabilities and risk associated with any project.
Man never plans to fail, he only fails to plan!
A feasibility study and a business plan are separate documents and each do a very specific job. The costs associated with each are also different.
