Feasibility and
viability assessments

Clear evidence a scheme stacks up

Getting the green light on a project, and buy-in from project sponsors, often takes clear evidence that a scheme is not only buildable but has been thought through practically, financially and in good time. Without it, things can quickly unravel.

That’s where our time-tested feasibility and viability assessment and reporting make a big difference.

Weighing up whether a scheme is worth pursuing?

Get in Touch

Get clarity before you commit

We’ve been around long enough to know that once a project is under way, a raft of external factors often mean it needs to be implemented as soon as possible. There’s a misconception that a feasibility assessment will slow things down. That’s wrong. By engaging us early, we work with you to look at the whole picture, including physical site constraints and design limitations, as well as planning risk, buildability, programming and projected costs.

You'll find out where the pinch points are

You get an objective, evidence-backed view of what's possible. The perceived time lost at the front end is more than made up for later, once those risks have been considered and managed out.

You won't need a glossary to read your report

We make sure your feasibility report is structured, concise and jargon-free, with practical steps you can consider and act on. Each report is bespoke, but it usually covers the following.

01

Site and access

Site access, constraints and suitability for proposed development work.

02

Planning

Planning policy compliance and likelihood of planning permission success.

03

Budget

Budget estimates with realistic figures and cost breakdowns included.

04

Legal

Legal issues, title restrictions and boundary complications assessed early.

05

Programme

Timeline, regulations and safety risks factored into development viability.

Helping you make the right call

Even the best ideas often need re-assessing to make sure decisions are backed by facts. It’s about having the right information, in the right format, at the right time. Our expert team give you an independent, honest opinion that helps you weigh up the options, whether it’s a new site purchase or assessing what to do with land you already own.

Giving you the clarity to decide

We appreciate that negative advice isn’t always what you want to hear. But once complete, our assessments point to practical solutions that can shift the outcome. Sometimes that’s a design tweak. Sometimes it’s a phasing rethink. Sometimes it’s knowing when to walk away. Whatever route you take, our team will be ready to support the next stages of the project, or in fact the next project, if it turns out the first one isn’t viable.
