Air Pollution in Adelaide

Feasibility Study

Feasibility refers to the factors that are crucial to the successful completion of a project. There are a
number of dynamics that are to be considered when examining the feasibility of a project. The
feasibility study will let the project manager handle the matters more effectively (Shen, Tam, Tam, &
Ji, 2010). Additionally, high feasibility of any project makes it easy to handle as well as the end results
are often more fruitful. There are following five types of feasibility that is being studies of the Air
Pollution in Adelaide project.

1. Economic Feasibility: For any project, the budget matters the most. Economic feasibility
analysis the cost benefits of the project and then measure the potential cost of the project. In
this way it is decided if the project falls under the budget for the supervisors or not. The
economic feasibility study of the current project suggested that the potential calculated cost
of the project is under the already estimated budget so the project is economically feasible.
2. Legal Feasibility: This studies the laws and legal matters attached with the proceedings of the
project. As the project is approved by the instructor as well as the university authorities there
are no legal constraints and thus the project is legal feasible as well.
3. Operational Feasibility: Operation feasibility is the evaluation of the demands of the project
and what the project is actually going to provide in return. For any project the operational
feasibility means the most. The outcome requirements of this project are outlines by the
client. The analysis has suggested that the potential outcomes of the current project will
surely aid in the requirements put forward by the client.
4. Scheduling feasibility: If the project is efficient in the terms of the outcomes but is not
completed on time, it is considered failed. A good task or project should end on time. The
examination of the processes in the project and set milestones says that the project is going to
finish on time providing us with great feasibility in terms of the scheduling.
5. Technical Feasibility: Technical feasibility refers to the evaluation of the technical matters,
such as machinery, technical staff and other equipment, associated with the project. In this
project we need a lot of support in term of technical matters. The feasibility study of the
 technical issues have suggested that the team have ample resources to full fill the
requirements related to the technical matters such as machineries.

Stakeholder Analysis

Stakeholders are the people or the teams and companies that re somehow related to the project.
These people have the right to participate in the decision making processes as well as their presence
and investments in the project matters too. There are always many stakeholders that are related to
the project (Aaltonen, 2011). The stakeholder can be the customers, investors, employees or the
clients of the project. For any successful project it is very important to keep in consideration the ideas
and suggestions put forward by every stakeholder. Additionally, the communication with the
stakeholder is also to be maintained for the successful completion of the project.

Before the initiation of any project it is very important to do a stakeholder analysis and examine
about the key stakeholders. In this way he project management team can take help form the ideas of
the stakeholders as well as they can assign then tasks depending upon their interest in the project. In
short the stakeholder analysis is done to evaluate the level of involvement and interest of the
stakeholders in the project. The stakeholder analysis is done with the help of the stakeholder matrix
which provides and easy and applicable solution for the involvement of each stakeholder.

The following table is an example of the stakeholder matrix, according to which the involvement and
interest of each stakeholder is decided for the current project.
The stakeholder analysis we have used has worked on two major dynamics for the evaluation. The
dimensions being the power to influence and interest of the stakeholder in the project. According to
the power and interest of each stakeholder, the communication with them as well as their role in the
project is decided and is shown in the image with the help of colors. There are four types of
stakeholder we have analyses. They are as follow and the communication pattern is abbreviated with
them as well:

 Latent. KS
 Promoters. MC
 Apathetic. M
 Defenders. KI,

The table given below shows that summary of the key stakeholder involved in the project, their role
given according to the involvement and then the communication level that is provided to them as per
their interest, role and involvement in the project.

Based on the involvement of a stakeholder in the project, more than one communication pattern may
be followed with him.
