Explanation
A feasibility study is conducted before a program is formally initiated to evaluate whether the program is viable, practical, and worth pursuing. It analyzes technical, financial, legal, and operational factors to determine if the program should be started. A business case is created after feasibility is established and focuses on justifying the investment with cost-benefit analysis. A program charter formally authorizes the program and is created after the decision to initiate has been made. A program scope statement defines the work to be performed and is developed during planning, not pre-initiation.
