Toteuttavalike

Toteuttavalike is a Finnish noun describing the feasibility of implementing a plan, decision, feature, or policy in practical terms. In fields such as software engineering, product design, project management, and public administration, toteuttavalike refers to how readily something can be realized given current technology, resources, skills, and institutional constraints. The concept focuses on implementation feasibility rather than abstract viability and is commonly assessed in feasibility studies, requirements analysis, and design reviews.

The term derives from the verb toteuttaa, meaning to implement or realize, and denotes the capability to carry out an intended action. In practice, toteuttavalike is used to distinguish what could be built or enacted under present conditions from ideas that are theoretically desirable but impractical. Domain-specific interpretations may vary between fields and organizations.

Examples include a software feature that relies on standard libraries and existing infrastructure, which is typically toteuttavalike, versus a plan demanding new regulatory approvals or costly hardware, which is less so. Evaluations often combine technical feasibility, cost considerations, operational impact, and regulatory compliance. Related concepts include implementability and feasibility, and assessing toteuttavalike helps with prioritization and roadmapping in projects.
