Feasibility Studies

Finley has completed feasibility studies for clients, incorporating our years of experience in broadband to lead with strategic discussions, ensuring a comprehensive end product. Feasibility studies provide cost estimates, identify revenue streams, outline an implementation plan and examine financing options to implement each of the options identified in the study. Part of the feasibility study often includes a survey to learn the constituents’ interest in purchasing broadband services.

There are hundreds of options that could be studied but you can’t study them all. The key; gathering the right data and evaluating the right options.  It is important to use an experienced partner when these studies are performed to make sure you are receiving the information that is most critical to acquire funding.
