Abstract

Although the conduction of feasibility analyses before executing comprehensive projects is often urged in literature, little standardization exists regarding actual approaches. In this chapter, the authors describe the practice of conducting a feasibility analysis of a decision-support knowledge platform in the Dutch primary care sector, and present recommendations for researchers and entrepreneurs performing similar projects accordingly. The research question, investigating how the feasibility of a decision-support knowledge platform in the primary care domain can be investigated, is answered by describing in detail the issues encountered during the process and included as COrETeSt-recommendations: the investigation of conceptual, organizational, economic, technological, and societal aspects comprises an extensive feasibility analysis in the primary care domain.
