Q. The grocery store, Wow Munchies, is considering developing an online site for customers to purchase food. The owner of the store believes that this capability will enable the store to grab market share from nearby Fast Food Co. that has the Web site and delivers food to the customer. This site will allow customers to buy any item that is currently in stock in the store. The store will not deliver food, but will have the food bagged and ready for pickup at the time designated by the customer. Wow Munchies has a single storefront.

1. Perform an operational feasibility study. Do you think the Web site will enable Wow Munchies to gain market share, as is its purpose? What factors will affect an operational success of this site? Submit the paper, supporting documents, charts, and any interviews conducted.

2. Perform a technical feasibility study. What would you recommend the company use in the creation and maintenance of their site (e.g. languages, specific host, and encryption)? Why does your choice affect the feasibility of said site? Submit your paper, supporting documents, charts, and any other information you used.

3. Perform an economic feasibility study for the investment into an e-commerce site. What discount rate is you using and why? Submit your paper, supporting documents, charts etc.

4. Develop a timeline and schedule feasibility study for completion of the Web site. Do you see any mitigating factors that may cause a delay in the timeline or deadline overrun? Submit the short write-up and a Gantt chart.
