Before a significant initiative is committed to, many of our clients request that we review their plan and perform Feasibility and Risk Analysis. Our objective analysis enables clients to proactively identify gaps and estimate end-game costs as compared to the value that will be provided to the business. With this information, the client can take steps to address gaps and mitigate risks. Risks and costs are reduced while value to the business is increased.
Experience, industry insight, and leadership enable our consultants to carefully analyze your plans and provide you with information you need to confidently make the final go/no-go decision and adjust your plan to fill identified gaps and minimize risk.
The deliverable covers the following areas:
- Business Impact: assess the value of the positive impact expected on business productivity.
- Requirements Gaps: areas that may have been overlooked in the documented requirements.
- Functionality Gaps: requirements that may not be adequately addressed by the proposed initiative.
- Vendor Product Deficiencies: determine if current releases will deliver committed functionality without defect.
- Resource Availability Risks: determine if appropriate resources are adequately allocated.
- Skill Deficiencies: determine if staff has or will have skills required.
- Accountability Gaps: assess executive sponsorship and chain of command for gaps.
- Completion Date Risks: identify risk factors that may present barriers to completion dates.
- Financial Budget Risks: identify risk factors that may increase costs.
- Mitigation Plan: recommendations for steps that should be taken to reduce risks in the above areas.
