 Feasibility Report
Abstract
This project is aimed at developing a complete online ordering system for use in the food service
industry which will allow the restaurants to quickly and easily manage an online menu which
customer can browse and use to place orders with just a few clicks. The customers will have to
choose whether they want the food to be delivered to them or it will be packaged for pick up and
the payment method will be upon delivery or pick up. There will be a system administrator who
will have the right to add and manage user accounts, a manager who will be managing product
and orders and last but not least a meal deliverer who will be dealing specifically with pending
deliveries. The customer will be in a position to view the products, register and place an order.
There will be a confirmation receipt for each and every order made by the customer which can
be printed.The development of this system will be based on with PHP and HTML & CSS as the
programming languages while MySQL server as the database of the system. HTML language is
advantageous due to its easy to use and learn validation properties and CSS provide interface
functionalities to HTML document while MySQL has better advanced features and properties,
has good security, is open source and has cross platform operability. The advantages of using
PHP programming language in developing this system are It’s easy and quick to learn and use.
Can be run on many platforms thus easy for users to find hosting service.It has built-in database
connection modules which makes it easy to connect to the database.

Objective
The objective of this project is to study how the online food ordering website works and the
process of the system followed by the users.

 To develop an application which gives provision to the restaurant owners to flourish their
business by uploading menus at no cost and will invariably lead to higher customer
retention and acquisition rates.
 To ensure customer satisfaction.
 To increase efficiency and improve services provided to the customers through better
application of technology.
 It is designed to increase efficiency, save money and time.
 It shows the correct menu and enable the customers to order items that are available.
 To avoid long queues at the counter.
 To accommodate huge amount of orders at a time
 To improve the communication between the client and the server
 Scope
We believe that online food ordering website will become even more popular in the future for the
obvious reason that they save users, time and money by listing the food menus with best price
and services.

Feasibility study
A feasibility study is a test of a system proposal. According to its workability, impacts on the
organization, ability to meet user needs and effective use of the resources its main task done
during feasibility study are:

 Evaluation of existing system and procedure:

For placing any orders customers have to visit hotels or restaurants to know about food items and
then place order and pay, for that process time and manual work is required. While placing an
order over the phone, customer lacks the physical copy of the menu item, lack of visual
confirmation that the order was placed correctly.

 Economy feasibility:

We have estimated that the cost for the development of this website will be minimum which will
benefits the developers.

 Technical feasibility:

Technical feasibility this project will be focused on gaining an understanding of the present
technical resources of the organization and their applicability to the expected needs of the
proposed system. It is an evaluation of the hardware and software and how it meets the needs of
the proposed system. The systems project is considered technically feasible if the internal
technical capability is sufficient to support the project requirements.

 Operational feasibility:

Operational feasibility is the measure of how well the project will support the customer and the
service provider during the operational phase.
 Research

Through our research we determined that the system that exits in today’s date is not so efficient
like if we want to order a food then we need to call to a restaurant than ask for the menu and
price and soon, that is too long process and not trust worthy too and there may be lots of
confusion which may not build a good relation between restaurant and the customer. We are not
saying that this process is totally wrong or useless but we can make it better and trust worthy
through internet (Online food ordering) system. Where we can see food menus with its actual
price, which will avoid a long quotes and confusions of both restaurants and the customers too.

online food ordering sites in Pakistan:

 Foodpanda( https://www.foodpanda.pk/)

 Super Meal(http://supermeal.pk)
 Eat Oye(https://eatoye.pk)
 Toss Down(http://tossdown.com/)

SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS

 Operating system: Windows XP / windows 7 / windows 8 / windows 10/ Mac.

 Technology: PHP
 Database: MYSQL

System Design
For my project I plan to use waterfall as a process model.In this project we decided to make a
food ordering website. Where there is admin, who will provide id and password to the restaurant
and then restaurant contact the admin and receives the id and password and then after restaurant
logged into the system they can start doing their job ie; inserting the food items with actual price.
Here all the customers can visit the page and place an order. Customer can also set the time for
delivery.

This system will be completely web based and will be developed using PHP. We will have one
home page where multiple options allow the user to choose different food items with the actual
price. There will be a system administrator who will have the right to add and manage user
accounts, a manager who will be managing product and orders. Following are the system design
of the system:

 Create an account.
 Manage their account.
 Log in to the system.
 Navigate the restaurant’s menu.
 Select an item from the menu.
 Add an item to their current order.
 Review their current order.
 Provide payment details.
 Place an order.
 Receive confirmation.

Estimated output
After the completion of the project we are expecting the following outputs which will minimize
the problems as well as solve the existing problem.

 To automatically compute the bill.

 Lightens the load on the restaurants
 Ensure customer satisfaction.
 Remove confusions.
 No more busy phones or the requirement for extra phone lines.
 Accommodate huge amount of orders at a time.
 Improve the communication between the client and the server
 Expected to be efficient in terms of time and money.
  Expected to provide better services.

Conclusion
Hence we have conclude that this project can be beneficial in daily life of people and will save a
lot of time by showing the list of food menus with the accurate price of different restaurants with
daily updates and also this will help us to avoid long queues at the counter.
