FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS
At GC SOLUTIONS GROUP we conduct feasibility studies to help property owners, and developers make informed decisions by providing critical information about a specific concept or project, such as new construction, redevelopment or renovation of an existing facility, or reuse of underutilized or abandoned facilities. The studies we
provide represent the comprehensive summation of numerous analyses used to
determine the viability of a project, and may typically include the following:
Market Analysis
· Current market trends
· Local economic trends
· Demographic trends
· Market demand and supply
· Comparable facilities/competition
· Location analysis
Financial Analysis
· Capital costs
· Projected revenues
· Operating costs
· Financing methods
· Return on Investment
GC SOLUTIONS GROUP works both internally and with a network of
professional market researchers, developers, architects and engineers to
compile the market, demographic, product and financial information critical to
the study. GC SOLUTIONS GROUP organizes the data, analyzes the results and
prepares a final report and presentation summarizing the project’s strategic
and program goals, concept design, market research, and financial impact. The
report will also include possible alternate design and/or implementation
approaches that may more closely achieve the client’s overall project goals.
DUE DILIGENCE
Due Diligence is the investigation of a site or facility to provide detailed information as to its current condition. This investigation is a valuable tool by which property owners and
users make informed decisions with respect to acquisition and disposition of property. At GC SOLUTIONS GROUP we coordinate and manage due diligence investigations based on individual client needs. A comprehensive due diligence investigation typically consists of the following components:
Existing Facility Investigation
· Property conditions report
· Code compliance
· Utility profile
· Itemized list of needed repairs
· Deferred maintenance items
· Cost estimate for repairs
· Useful life studies
Existing Conditions Investigation
· Phase I environmental study
· Topographical survey
· Flood Plain Delineation
· Financing methods
· Return on Investment
· Wetland Delineation
· Boundary Survey
· Utility Survey
· Geotechnical
· Traffic Study
· Title Survey
· Tree Inventory
Entitlement Analysis
An important component of a due diligence investigation, entitlement analysis is the investigation of current zoning and planning applicable to the site as well as special districts or interim controls. The regulatory environment that controls the building
process in today’s marketplace is complex. In response to this complexity, GC SOLUTIONS GROUP also provides an evaluation of future entitlement changes, including any pending legislation, trends in the local community and unstable political environments that may impact the future development potential of a site.
