01
Feasibility & DPR
Milk shed assessment, product basket and capacity selection, capital and operating cost modelling, break-even and DSCR working, delivered as a lender-ready detailed project report.
Detailed Project Report
Capabilities
Every deliverable, and what it contains
A dairy project goes wrong in the gaps between disciplines. This is the full list of what we produce, so nothing sits in a gap.
Engineering
Engineering Services
The drawing-board work that fixes what the plant will cost, how it will flow and what it will be able to make.
Detailed Project Report
Bankable DPR with milk shed assessment, product-wise capacity and realisation, itemised capital cost against budgetary quotations, means of finance, seven-year projections, DSCR and sensitivity analysis.
Process flow & mass balance
Product-wise process flow diagrams with a mass and energy balance that ties intake, standardisation, losses and finished output together, so equipment is sized on arithmetic rather than habit.
Plant layout & hygienic zoning
Equipment general arrangement with raw, process and packing zones separated, drainage and trench routing, personnel and material flow, and floor loading and plinth details for the civil contractor.
Utility sizing
Steam, refrigeration, compressed air, chilled and soft water and power demand calculated from the process duty curve, including diversity, so utilities are neither starved nor oversized.
Bill of material & tender documents
Line-by-line BOM with material of construction, surface finish, capacity, duty and inspection requirement, issued as a tender document that makes offers genuinely comparable.
Civil & structural coordination
Coordination drawings issued to your architect and civil contractor, with the equipment loads, service penetrations, drain slopes and clear heights that later fit-out depends on.
Plant & equipment maintenance services
Preventive maintenance schedules and annual maintenance contracts for homogenisers, separators, plate heat exchangers, pumps, valves, refrigeration and boilers, with breakdown support, critical spares planning and instrument calibration, so rated capacity holds long after commissioning.
Process & Quality
Process & Quality Services
The site work that decides whether the plant on paper becomes a plant that holds specification every shift.
Vendor evaluation & procurement
Shortlisting against demonstrated dairy references, techno-commercial evaluation on a like-for-like basis, negotiation support and purchase specification with clear inspection and documentation clauses.
Pre-dispatch inspection
Inspection at the fabricator's works before payment and dispatch: dimensional checks, weld and surface finish inspection, material test certificate review, and hydro or pressure testing witness.
Erection supervision
Site supervision against our own drawings, with piping slope and support checks, hygienic weld inspection, instrument loop verification and a managed punch list to mechanical completion.
CIP design & validation
CIP circuit design with return velocity above 1.5 metres per second in every leg and no dead leg longer than three pipe diameters, validated on site against time, temperature, conductivity and swab results.
Commissioning & capacity demonstration
Water trials, chemical trials, milk trials and a documented rated-capacity run, so acceptance is against a measured result rather than an opinion.
Process & energy audits
Measured audits of steam, refrigeration, compressed air, water and process losses in operating plants, delivered as a costed action list ranked by simple payback.
