As the chances of us securing this project is high, due to our previous experience in the Leicester Stadium, we need to 3 factors need to be consider

Factors to be consider tendering for project. We need look at feasibility study and the values project return to the organization.

For feasibility study, we can broadly look into it from four areas of feasibility. They are:-

Technical Feasibility

Economic Feasibility

Legal Feasibility

Scheduling Feasibility

Technical feasibility

Technical feasibility is done to check whether the company has the technical abilities in terms of software, hardware, personnel and expertise to ensure that the project can be handled and taken up upon. Our company West Construction having previously completed a very similar project, Leicester Tigers RFC stadium, definitely has the personnel and expertise to take on this new project.

The most significant technical challenge will be the retractable roof. The roof supports can be started as soon as the lower concrete base is completed. As from our CPM, it will be xxx days from start of project. We have two options for the constructing the retractable roof. One is to sub contract out this portion of the project and the second option is to take on this entire project ourselves. We have evaluated that in order to meet quality assurance and the high probability that future constructions will require this expertise, we will take on the building of retractable roof ourselves. To complement our lack of expertise in this area, we have engaged 3 members of the team who were part of the project team that built Millennium Stadium retractable roof.
