What Are Included In A Subdivision Feasibility Assessment?

by Vision Surveys Land Surveyor Companies & Consultants Perth
The construction project process is divided into several planned phases, which start with project initiation and conclude with closure—completion and delivery—just like any other project management plan. A Subdivision Feasibility Assessment and the selection of a construction management company are frequently the first official steps in a development project. This study is a crucial step in the planning phase of the building project management process. The planning step is regarded as falling within the preconstruction stage in certain systems. It is impossible to exaggerate the significance of this initial stage—poor or inadequate planning will destroy a project, while good planning will build it.

Types of Feasibility Study
Since a Subdivision Feasibility Assessment assesses the project's likelihood of success, perceived neutrality plays a crucial role in the study's credibility with possible lenders and investors. The various areas that a Subdivision Feasibility Assessment looks at are broken down into five categories of subdivision feasibility assessment, which are explained below.

1. Technical Feasibility
The organization's technological resources are the main subject of this evaluation. It aids in the assessment of an organization's technical team's ability to translate concepts into functional systems and the capacity of its technical resources. Evaluating the suggested system's hardware, software, and other technical needs is another aspect of technological viability. To use an implausible example, no organisation would want to attempt to install Star Trek transporters inside its structure as this endeavour is not now technically possible. 

2. Economic Feasibility
This evaluation usually entails a cost/benefit analysis of the project, which aids organisations in ascertaining the project's viability, costs, and advantages before allocating financial resources. Additionally, it strengthens the project's legitimacy and acts as an impartial project review, assisting decision-makers in figuring out the positive financial advantages the proposed project will bring to the company. 

3. Legal Feasibility
This evaluation looks at if any part of the project violates any laws, including those about social media, data protection, or zoning. Assume that a company want to develop a new office block in a certain area. The ideal location of the organisation may not be permitted for that kind of business, according to a feasibility analysis. That organisation has just saved a great deal of time and effort by realising early on that their idea was not feasible.

4. Operational Feasibility
To complete this assessment, a study must be conducted to examine whether and to what extent the project can satisfy the needs of the organisation. Operational feasibility studies also look at how a project plan fulfils the specifications found throughout the system development process requirements analysis phase.

5. Scheduling Feasibility
The completion of this assessment is the most crucial to the success of the project because, in the end, incomplete projects will not succeed. An organisation calculates the duration of the project to determine its scheduling feasibility.

Following a thorough examination of each of these areas, the feasibility analysis assists in identifying any potential obstacles to the proposed project, such as:

  • Internal Project Restrictions: Financial, Resource, Budgetary, and Technical.
  • Internal Company Restrictions: Budgetary, Advertising, Export, etc.
  • The environment, laws, regulations, logistics, and other external constraints.

What is Examined in a Subdivision Feasibility Assessment?
The Subdivision Feasibility Assessment, which will produce a feasibility report, is positioned at the top of a flow chart that illustrates the steps involved in managing building projects. This introduction analyses and contrasts the spark, or original idea, with actuality. Proceeding without the information and approval that the report offers could be dangerous; it would be similar to purchasing a plane ticket to a far-off place without first verifying the political climate, the local weather, or any health advisories. Either you're going to enjoy the trip of a lifetime, or you can be in for a disastrous situation.

In the construction industry as well as other industries (particularly IT), TELOS is one acronym that is frequently used for this project management step: Technology, Economic sustainability, Legal Implications, Operational/Organizational Viability, and Schedule feasibility. 

Technology and Systems: 
Are all the resources, materials, labour force, expertise in BIM (Building Information Modelling) or other construction project management software alternatives easily available to ensure the project is completed successfully? Are the main players utilising these resources and technologies with enough experience? 

Economics, Often Known As Benefit-Cost Analysis: 
The economics phase of the analysis inquires as to whether a commercial enterprise is financially feasible. What are the project's advantages and disadvantages? Can the person covering the cost of a home project pay on time? 

Legal Parameters: 
Entitlement, planning constraints, and so forth. 

Operational capacity: 
This phase deals with scope. Can every individual working in the project—which could include hundreds or even thousands of people — perform their assigned tasks as specified? both the lead parts and the supporting cast members? When you need them, will the extras and the tech team be available? 

Schedule: 
Can this project be completed on time and to the satisfaction of the owner and the team? 

Aesthetic, environmental, and cultural considerations will be additional Subdivision Feasibility considerations for planned subdivision development. Though environmentally friendly, what would be the neighbours' reaction if one was set up on the lawn directly across from them? 

Surveyors will, in practise, examine three factors when conducting a land assessment for a new building project on subdivided land: the client's goals and wants; zoning and government regulations; and the findings of the topographic survey or site evaluation. Access, grade, soil, waste management choices, resource availability, easements, and restrictive covenants are all determined by the latter. Planning approvals, infrastructural modifications (such as faster internet, better water treatment, etc.), and the planned yurt park or peacock farm next door are possible additional elements to take into account. Early plan drawings can be designed by the architects if there are no significant impediments in the way. These will provide as a rough approximation of the project's cost.

The length of time required for a thorough Subdivision Feasibility Assessment depends on the scope of the project. It will inform the team as to whether the project is unlikely to succeed, needs to be modified, or is viable. It will be time to proceed to the following stage of construction project planning, preconstruction, if all the stars align and everyone agrees that the project is fantastic and feasible.
