level of risk for the following reasons- We are replacing the existing system, so risk

of familiarity with application is less. We have experience doing similar projects

which reduces risk of familiarity with technology.

Project size is medium with 7 developers and 2 months to complete the project.

FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS

Economic Feasibility: According to the cost-benefit analysis our system is

economically feasible as: Development costs-as we have experienced staff and the

project size is medium, investment on the team salaries, training , software, office space, equipment etc. are less.

Operational costs- software upgrades, hardware repairs/upgrades are minimized as it is a medium sized project.

We are reducing production cost, support cost and time by using amazon DevPay, S3 and simpleDB web services.

ORGANIZATIONAL FEASIBILITY

Our system is organizationally feasible with low level of risk as there is no loss of existing users as they are intimated about the replacement of the old system with new features.

With the advertising of the new system, there will be an increase in number of users.
