What a feasibility report looks like.

An illustrative example for a fictional company, so you can see the structure, the evidence and the way we state a recommendation.

Feasibility Proof Report

Client: Example Contractors Ltd (fictional mid-size MEP contractor)
Project: Cooling plant replacement, 12,000 m² office building
Decision needed: Which cooling system should we propose and install?

1 Summary of recommendation

Option C (water-cooled chillers with cooling towers) has the lowest 10-year cost, but only if the roof structure check passes and water supply is secure. If either fails, Option A is the safer choice.

2 Options compared

Illustrative 10-year view (undiscounted, USD thousands).

Options compared
Option	Capital	Energy / yr	Maintenance / yr	10-year total	Main risk
A. Air-cooled chillers	620	118	22	2,020	Higher running cost
B. VRF system	540	135	30	2,190	Refrigerant volume, long pipe runs
C. Water-cooled chillers + towers	780	86	34	1,980	Roof loading, water use, upkeep

Option C costs about 160 more upfront than Option A but saves about 32 a year in energy. The 10-year gap is small, so the conditions below matter more than the headline number.

3. Conditions to confirm first

Structural check of the roof for tower loads
Confirmed water supply and treatment plan
Plant room access for chiller replacement

4. Risks and how to reduce them

Cost overrun: fixed-price supplier quotes before tender
Programme delay: order long-lead chillers early
Maintenance burden: agree a service contract up front

5. Assumptions and limits

Prices and energy figures are placeholders
No discounting or inflation applied
