A Proposed Feasibility Process: Lessons Learned from the Precision MS Project.

Abstract

Using an elaborated action design research (eADR) approach, this paper describes activities and outcomes of a feasibility study. The study explored whether a previously developed data collection tool could be used in a different setting. Two outcomes emerged. First, design requirements were identified to assess whether a second setting could adopt the current tool. Second, while feasibility studies are widely discussed in the literature, the process of conducting them remains less well-defined. Lessons learned outline a proposed feasibility process. The authors believe this process could be valuable for projects that wish to adopt developed technologies.
