What Is a Feasibility Study?
A feasibility study is a comprehensive evaluation that determines whether a proposed site or project is viable from both a technical and regulatory standpoint. At Civil 1, this process includes an in-depth review of zoning requirements, environmental limitations, utility access, topography, permitting hurdles, and more. It answers the question: Can this site support the vision? By assessing constraints and highlighting key opportunities, our studies help stakeholders make informed, cost-effective decisions early in the process.
Why Feasibility Studies Matter for Project Success
Feasibility studies aren't just a formality—they're a roadmap to smarter development. Our studies are designed to prevent future challenges by identifying critical issues before design or construction begins. This proactive approach saves our clients time, money, and frustration. For firms working out of state or navigating unfamiliar regulations in Connecticut, we become a trusted local partner with deep regulatory knowledge and established relationships with permitting agencies. Civil 1’s ability to foresee roadblocks and develop strategic solutions sets us apart in a complex development environment.
Our Process
Our feasibility study process begins with an initial consultation to understand your goals, followed by a comprehensive site analysis. We investigate zoning, land use history, drainage patterns, utility availability, and permitting timelines. Our team coordinates closely with planners, architects, surveyors, and municipal officials to develop a clear picture of what’s possible—and what to avoid. You’ll receive a detailed report and actionable recommendations to guide your next steps with clarity and confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should I conduct a feasibility study in my project timeline?
A feasibility study should be completed before design, permitting, or land acquisition whenever possible. It’s a proactive step that helps identify red flags early and informs smarter decision-making from the start.
Can you help with feasibility studies if I’m based out of state?
Yes. Civil 1 frequently works with out-of-state firms and developers who need local expertise in Connecticut and surrounding states. We provide insight into local regulations and permitting expectations and serve as your trusted boots-on-the-ground resource.
Will this study help me get permits faster?
While a feasibility study doesn’t replace permitting, it does help you prepare for it. By identifying regulatory challenges ahead of time, we help streamline the permitting process and reduce costly delays or redesigns later on.
What types of projects benefit from a feasibility study?
Feasibility studies are valuable for a wide range of projects—residential subdivisions, commercial developments, industrial sites, municipal facilities, and more. If you’re unsure whether your project needs one, we’re happy to review your goals and provide guidance.
