The purpose of the initiation phase of a project (Basic steps in every project life cycle) is to determine if the project is actually viable. This means working with the client to discuss broad scope, look at budgets, internal resources, high-level look at the market, etc.
It's important to do this discovery process first so as to not get caught by some impenetrable blockers in the future. Maybe there's some legal reason you can't move forward. Maybe you don't have the resources to reasonably complete the project. Maybe the client is crazy and you don't actually want to work with them. All of these should be looked at now.
