a. Gaining an initial understanding of the system under review.

c. Determining the nature and extent of reported system failure (e.g., in an Order-to-Cash process, numerous customer complaints, excessive bad debt losses, abnormally high sales returns, and unusual delinquency in shipping customer orders).
d. Assessing/evaluating (1) economic feasibility, (2) operational feasibility, and (3) technical feasibility.
