First identify the actual bottleneck. Measure current feedstock, processing economics and lost opportunities. Compare doing nothing, process improvement, outsourcing, renting, leasing, used equipment and new equipment. Model realistic utilization, incremental recovery, labour, energy, maintenance, downtime, working capital, buyer capacity and downside scenarios. Pilot where possible, set minimum return requirements and review actual post-investment performance against the original business case.
