Feasibility studies/Business plans

Feasibility studies or Business plans for food - and fish processing plants to provide a base - technical, economic and commercial - for an investment decision.  It defines and analyses the critical elements that relate to the production of a given product together with alternative approaches to such production. The study provides a project of a defined production capacity at a selected location, using a particular technology or technologies in relation to defined materials and inputs, at identified investment and production costs, and sales revenues yielding a defined return on investment.

Advantages

bullet

Analyse whether the project is viable or non-viable before further initiation of the project

bullet

Optimisation process covering possible alternative solutions for production programmes, locations, sites, technology, plant, mechanical, electrical and civil engineering  and organisational set-up that have to be harmonised in order to minimise investment and production costs.

bullet

If the resulting data show a non-viable project, several parameters and the production programme, material inputs or technology would be adjusted in an attempt to present a well-defined, viable project.

Study

The feasibility study will describe the above mentioned optimisation process, justify the assumptions made and the solutions selected and define the scope of the project as the integration of the selected partial alternatives. If, however, the project is not viable despite all alternatives reviewed, this will be stated and justified in the study.
Final estimates on investment and production costs and the subsequent calculations of financial and economic profitability is based on a unequivocally defined scope of project in order not to omit any essential part and its pertaining cost. The scope will be defined in drawings and schedules which could then serve as a supporting structure during further project work. It will be clearly described in order to accurately forecast the investment and production costs. Will embrace all activities scheduled to take place at the plant site; the auxiliary operations related to the production, extraction, off-site transport and storage of inputs and the off-site transport of outputs (e.g. final products, by-products, wastes and emissions); and such off-site ancillary activities as housing schemes and educational, training and recreational facilities.

Latvia  - Baka Ltd. -  Pre-feasibility study for smoked sprat canning plant with a capacity of 3500 tons of raw material per year. The overall purpose of the project was to assist the Latvian fishing industry “Baka Ltd.” in their privatisation efforts through the elaboration of a definite project for a modern smoked sprat canning plant able to produce on market economy terms. Strategically, the plant must emphasise the production of canned smoked sprat of high and consistent quality for the export market. The “high quality” image will enable the plant to establish itself as a reliable supplier of products to quality-conscious segments with a great purchasing power. The study included description and definition of conditions, process-flow, layout, production control system, offal handling, technical installations, investment budgets, market survey and cost-benefit analysis.
