The Feasibility Study
After The Fact
A feasibility study after the fact is very often warranted and can be a tremendous cost savings tool for a business. Most companies have had a product or service that did not perform according to expectations after it was launched. Whether or not a feasibility study was completed prior to launch or not, the anticipated sales volume was lower than expected. By this time, thousands of dollars have may have been spent in product development, manufacturing, employee training, advertising, sales and marketing etc. and the return on investment is lagging. What can a company do at this point? What should a company do? Should the product line be pulled or the service offered no longer be made available? Is a market analysis warranted? These are among the questions needing to be answered when the disappointing numbers surface. Conducting a feasibility after the fact is often a very cost-effective way of dealing with the issue.
It Eventually Happens To Every Company
Companies are sometimes reticent to commission a feasibility study after product launch for fear that it will appear that someone didn't do proper pre-launch market research. What should be remembered is that there is not a company around with any type of track record that has a perfect record of successful market entries. Products and services that do not capture the markets attention are a fact of life in the business world. But before pulling the plug an investment in a feasibility study may equate cost wise to a small percentage of the money already invested by the company and will provide the data needed to make an informed decision on continuing the offering.If you are uncertain about the long term viability of a product it is time to take the next step, which is to make a decision to continue or discontinue the product. Before doing that it will be prudent to call in a company that specializes in feasibility studies. A company such as M.J. Barney Associates.
