Chapter 3: Feasibility Research

3.1 Feasibility research plan

In present scenario, it is really difficult to acquire capable candidates for vacant position. The researcher needs to judge feasibility of business planned throughout the report. The promoters are able to generate sufficient amount of profit if new venture proves to be viable in nature. It is through testing feasibility of the organization on various grounds such as finance, marketing and demand levels within an economy (Farrow, 2007). The business unit planned throughout the report is going to achieve success when its feasibility is tested beforehand. The section proposed herewith emphasizes on testing feasibility of project into consideration. The section emphasizes on testing viability of the business unit in the form of financial, marketing and operations feasibility.  The testing of viability is considered to be important in nature since it provides guidance to promoters. The researcher is going to test feasibility of business planed through this section. This in turn helps in guiding promoters’ action for the start of new venture.

By knowing the feasibility of the plan it is possible to identify the opportunities present in the market and in turn they can be grabbed easily by establishing the venture. No doubt, establishment of new business requires high investment due to which it is necessarily required to undertake feasibility study as with the help of this it can be known how full amount can be utilized so as to grab opportunities present in the market. Further, their exist large number of challenges which can also be identified and in turn corrective actions can be taken well in advance which is beneficial for the new business in every possible manner. Therefore, it is the main motive of feasibility research plan.

3.2 Primary & secondary data needs

The researcher needs to accumulate primary and secondary data for purpose of conducting research. In order to judge feasibility, it is essential to accumulate data related to field of study. The primary information is collected for the first time so as to support research into consideration (Kumar and Phrommathed, 2005). Secondary data on other hand is extracted through published journals, articles and other materials. In present case, the feasibility of business plan can be judged through collection of secondary information. The secondary information helps in understanding the industry performance and expected growth. This in turn helps in evaluating growth potential associated with business planned through the report. Henceforth, the secondary information will be accumulated for the purpose of conducting research into consideration. It is through secondary information that the researcher is able to extract relevant information and conduct the analysis. The extracted information is going to help in testing feasibility of business planned through the report.

Further, it is well known fact that no study can be carried out without accessing primary and secondary information. Both the sources of information are equally important for the present business plan as through secondary information it is possible to know feasibility of feasibility of recruitment agency in London UK. Moreover, primary information is not needed in the present study due to which only secondary sources have been considered in the research so as to enhance its efficiency.

Different articles have been considered in the research which highlights overall position of recruitment industry in the market and through this new business can get idea regarding the growth opportunities present in the market in near future. In short without collection of secondary information it is not at all possible to carry out in-depth analysis and leads to decline in efficiency of the study. Further, books and journals associated with the topic also provides base to the entire research and in turn effective information can be attained easily through which aims and objectives of research can be attained easily.  Moreover, it is required to ensure that secondary sources are reliable and valid too as considering inappropriate data for the study can lead to unexpected results.

3.3 Research Methodologies

The research methodology is a section that provides guidance to researcher for effective completion of research work. In order to test the feasibility of new venture planned, it is essential to conduct analysis of relevant information (Neuman, 2005). Further, in every study it is required to select right tools and techniques so that overall efficiency of the research can be enhanced easily. Selection of methodological tools depends on the nature of research and is associated with the aims and objectives of research. Further, it assist in answering all the research questions which have been developed in the research. Research methodology part undertakes different areas which are research philosophy, design, data collection, analysis, limitations of the study etc. The methodologies and techniques that are adopted for conducting research work are discussed underneath in detail.

Research philosophy: The business proposal is said to be based on either interpretivism or positivism philosophy. Interpretivism posses a philosophy which is not reasonable to accumulate whole understanding of particular subject matter (Marczyk, DeMatteo and Festinger, 2005). This philosophy is based on the belief that psychology of individual plays significant role in understanding about the topic or challenges that are being present in the universe. Further the, interpretation of particular fact along with reality is associated with the nature and behaviour of individual. Interpretivism as a philosophy depends upon the qualitative data. On the other hand positivism philosophy is based on the belief that reality is of stable nature and can be observed from the perspective of research objectives.  On the other hand, positivism as a philosophy depends on quantifiable observation which leads to statistical analysis. It is a kind of factual knowledge which has been attained with the help of observation. Further, in this type of philosophy the role of researcher is limited to data collection and interpretation through objective approach.

For developing the present business plan interpretivism as a philosophy has been selected as through this researcher can easily interpret the elements of the research and integrates human interest into the study. Further, it is possible to identify whether the idea of setting up of new recruitment agency is London is feasible or not. Apart from this, interpretivism as a philosophy can provide support in dealing with the issues being associated with the research.

Research design: The business proposal planned herewith needs to be presented in an appropriate manner. The research design indicates the presentation method that is adopted on part of researcher. Any kind of research is said to be based on descriptive, exploratory and experimental design (Patton, 2005). The descriptive design emphasizes on conduct of analysis through adoption of existing theories and models. Exploratory design on other hand emphasizes on exploring some new concept or theory. Finally, experimental design focuses on conducting scientific experiments for proving some new fact. In present case, the researcher is going to adopt descriptive design for the purpose of conducting research work. It is through descriptive design that the researcher is able to present research outcomes in an efficient manner. By adopting descriptive design it is possible to describe the characteristics of population. Further, description of the topic being chosen for research can be given easily and in turn study can be carried out thoroughly.  It involves one time interaction with individuals who are linked with the research. Investigator in the study interacts with participants and different techniques are employed for obtaining information.

Research approach: The research approach is considered to determine perceptions possessed on part of researcher for completion of completion of research work. The study proposed herewith is considered to be based upon one of the two approaches: inductive or deductive approach (Mackey and Gass, 2013). The inductive approach starts from observations of prevailing facts and figures. Thereafter, the pattern is analysed for the purpose of testing hypothesis and proving certain existing theory. On other hand deductive approach tends to create certain theory through hypothesis testing. The results generated through hypothesis testing are confirmed through continuous observations. The study into consideration emphasizes n testing the feasibility of business planned through observations of existing facts and figures. It can be therefore said that the study into consideration is based on inductive approach. It is through adoption of inductive approach that the researcher is able to generate valid and reliable outcomes.

Inductive approach is appropriate for the present research as the entire business plan is based setting up of new business such as recruitment agency. Therefore, the research has been carried out specifically in order to know the feasibility of this business and on the basis of this decisions can be taken whether to implement this plan or not. Moreover, the main reason behind not adopting deductive approach is that in this type of approach results move from general to specific which is not at all suitable for the present research. By employing appropriate approach it is possible to answer all the research questions which have been developed in the research and leads to expected outcomes.

Data analysis: It is essential for researcher to conduct an in-depth analysis of information accumulated through the research. The viability of business proposal can be analysed by adoption of either quantitative or qualitative methods (Christensen and James, 2008). In present case, the information accumulated is analysed by way of adoption of qualitative techniques. The qualitative methods help in testing feasibility of the study into consideration. It is through adoption of qualitative techniques that the researcher is able to test feasibility of business planned. The technique helps in drawing valid and reliable outcome for the business proposed through the report.

For the secondary information collected their themes have been formed as through this it becomes easy to know whether the new business is feasible or not. Apart from this, primary information has not been undertaken in the present research due to which themes have been formed of secondary information only and it can provide support in knowing about the feasibility of the plan which has been prepared. On the other hand quantiative technique has not been employed as data is not present in numeric form and it can only be analysed with the help of qualitative technique. Therefore, this can be regarded as one of the main reason behind undertaking qualitative method for analysing secondary information rather than quantitative one.

So these are some of the effective tools being employed in the present business plan which strongly focuses on the key aims and objectives of the research. Moreover, all these tools have been adopted by considering the nature of business plan as wrong selection of methodological tools acts as hurdle in implementation of plan which is unfavourable for the new business. Therefore, through this it can be said that right tools and techniques have been selection for the present business plan.
