    Study Notes

    Pre-Investment Phase

    • Identification of the Project: This is the initial phase where the project is conceived, and its basic needs and opportunities are analyzed.
    • Preliminary Study: This stage involves initial research, market analysis, and a basic assessment of the project's feasibility. It determines the preliminary scope and potential of the project.
    • Feasibility Study: This stage delves deeper into the project's viability, assessing technical, economic, social, and environmental factors.
      • It also analyzes alternative solutions, potential impacts, and determines the project's priority and alignment with company goals.
      • This stage helps determine if the project is technically, economically, and socially viable.
    • Anteproject: This stage involves more detailed planning and design. It includes preliminary engineering designs, budget estimates, and initial legal framework analysis.

    Investment Decision Phase

    • Decision to Invest: Based on the findings of the feasibility study and anteproject, a decision is made to proceed with the investment and move to the project's implementation phase.
    • Definitive Project: This stage involves the development of a comprehensive and detailed project plan. This includes final design drawings, detailed budget estimates, construction timelines, and a comprehensive evaluation of the project's potential environmental impacts.

    Project Execution Phase

    • Project Formulation: The project is defined with technical, financial, socio-economic, environmental, and organizational documentation to ensure its successful execution.
    • Evaluation: The project is thoroughly evaluated in terms of its technical feasibility, economic viability, environmental impact, and social benefits.
    • Execution: The project is implemented according to the detailed plans and specifications established in the project's definition stage.

    Post-Investment Phase

    • Operation and Management: Once completed, the project is put into operation and maintained. This phase involves monitoring outcomes, addressing any issues, and optimizing performance.
    • Results Evaluation: The project's performance is assessed against its initial goals and objectives. This phase involves gathering data on the project's impact, identifying any successes or shortfalls, and using the findings to improve future projects.

    Study Notes

    • Feasibility Study: The feasibility study is a critical stage in the project development process. It assesses the viability of the project before committing significant resources.
    • Anteproject: The anteproject provides sufficient information for making a decision on investing in the project.
    • Project: The project is the final and comprehensive document that outlines the project in detail including its technical design, cost estimates, execution schedule, and management plan. It serves as a roadmap for the project's implementation.
    • Project Documentation: Project documentation plays a crucial role in ensuring transparency and accountability in the project's development and execution. It helps ensure that the project meets all legal requirements and specifications.
    • Project Phases: The project lifecycle is divided into distinct phases, each with its own objectives and deliverables. Effective management of each phase is essential for the project's success.
    • Budget Estimates: Accurate cost estimates are crucial for ensuring financial feasibility and for managing project resources effectively.
    • Environmental Impact Assessments: The project's environmental impact is evaluated and mitigated throughout the project's development and execution to ensure sustainability and compliance with environmental regulations.
