Development Management

Integrated Feasibility Analysis

 

We are consitent in advocating that one cannot be over-prepared when it comes to complex projects such as hotel developments. 

It is against this belief that we highly recommend to conduct a series of studies, which are aimed at providing you with various opportunities to evaluate the essential success factors of such a venture on a red-light-green-light system, before the point of “no-return” is reached when large quantities of money are committed.

Below, we have outlined the deliverables included in the IFA, but in summary this exercise looks at the three main aspects of a project; The Market Feasibility, The Financial Feasibility and The Construction Feasibility and will take approximately three months (depending on complexity), at the end of which you will be able to make an informed decision based on the following intelligence:

 

Strategy Study
Strategic Objectives And Priorities, Decision Criteria 


Market Study
Market Analysis (Target Markets and Demand, Demographic Mix and Income Sustainability, Expected Market Share), Market Driven Data for the Financial Model.
