PRODUCTION OR TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY

PRODUCTION

 The processes and methods used to transform tangible


inputs (raw materials, semi-finished goods,
subassemblies) and intangible inputs (ideas,
information, knowledge) into goods or services.
Resources are used in this process to create an output
that is suitable for use or has exchange value.

TECHNNICAL FEASIBILITY
1. Production Planning
This plan should indicate how the different stages in a
process are linked together. It should identify any
“bottlenecks” in the process, the equipment that is
required for each stage and where quality assurance
procedures should be used.
The data that has been found from market surveys is
added to the process chart to indicate the scale of
production that is required.

TECHNNICAL FEASIBILITY
2. Raw Materials and Ingredients
It is necessary to calculate the amount
of each ingredient that will be needed to
formulate a batch of products.
It is necessary to calculate the amount
of losses that can be expected during
preparation.
