making a feasability statement

6 posts
Hi guys,

I have to define a feasability statement for a Java webmail project that I'm working on. I'm not quite sure what this means or how I'm supposed to go about doing this. Can someone out there with experience on this topic give me some ideas? I know this is kind of general but I'm stuck right now.


You mean something like hotmail but with a more complete interface (like outlook's or netscape's) that would be built using java? My opinion: definitely possible. Anything else, I don't know... give us details.
We're building an intranet in class, and our portion of it is the Java webmail system. Right now, we're in the analysis stage, and I have to write a feasability statement for the project. Only I don't really know what a feasability statement looks like. What type of information do I need to put in this?
Well, I don't know more than you do You *should* have learned this in class if you have to do it. I can tell you it can be done, but can't tell you what to give back as homework.
I'm not looking nor asking for an answer. All I'm asking is what type of information belongs in a feasability statement. Is it just as simple as saying "This project is feasible because we can do it." In the Software Engineering world, how is it done?
From my perspective, a "feasibility" report would be one which would describe what the requirements are for completing a project. This would be used to assess whether or not the project was worth doing. Don't confuse this with justifying the need for a project, but only what it would take to get it accomplished.

This is the kind of thing you have to do in the real world.
