The purpose of this analysis process is to eliminate those ideas that are technically or financially unfeasible in order to permit the selection of alternatives for further feasibility testing based on the resulting cost estimates. This element will answer the question, "What is the cost of the selected alternative?"

OMB Guidance on Exhibit sec. 300.4 (BY2013) “Alternatives Analysis refers to an analysis of alternative approaches addressing the performance objectives of an investment, performed prior to the initial decision to implement a solution, and updated periodically as appropriate to capture changes in the context for an investment decision. Alternatives analysis details should be available upon request.”
