Among the most important effects that may occur if a feasibility study is ignored for a project idea that might lead to the project’s failure to reach the desired goals of its implementation, the project’s mismanagement and low demand due to the lack of sufficient knowledge and information in the market and competitors and the actual need of the target group, the lack of communication means Marketing commensurate with the nature of the segment or target group, the lack of predictability and the determination of the appropriate amount of supply absorbed by the local market, high costs and prices due to high production costs, may also lead to mismatch of products to the project from the quality and sustainability standards And it has by the authorities and consumers.
