Digital Decision Tools / Industrial Decision Tools / Factory Feasibility Analyzer
Industrial Decision ToolsKnow if the factory is worth building before you commit the capital.
Enter your investment, capacity, and cost assumptions. We run the same NPV, IRR, payback, and break-even analysis a financial advisory firm would, across an optimistic, a base, and a conservative scenario. You get a clear Go / No-Go answer, with a professional report.
About this tool
A tool that assesses whether a factory or production line is worth the investment, according to our consultants' methodology and formulas.
The problem it solves
An investor or factory owner who wants to know the feasibility before committing capital.
What you enter
Total initial investment; evaluation period; country and discount rate; annual production capacity; utilization in the first and steady years; selling price per unit; variable cost per unit; annual fixed costs.
How it is calculated
Net present value, internal rate of return, simple and discounted payback, profitability index and break-even point, across three scenarios: optimistic, base and conservative.
What you get
A verdict of go, go with caution or not feasible, the scenario table, the break-even point, a PDF report and an Excel model.

Illustrative example
Factory Feasibility Tool (Industrial)
Hypothetical, rounded inputs. This example is not a prediction, does not reflect market data and does not describe an actual client. Hypothetical food-packaging line, Saudi Arabia. Country: Saudi Arabia (Saudi riyal).
Hypothetical inputs
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Total initial investment | 27,000,000 |
| Project Evaluation Period (Years) | 10 |
| Discount Rate: Minimum Required Return (%) | 11 |
| Maximum annual capacity (units/year) | 100,000 |
| Year 1 utilization (%) | 50 |
| Steady-state utilization from year 3 onward (%) | 80 |
| Selling price per unit | 400 |
| Variable cost per unit | 250 |
| Annual fixed costs | 6,000,000 |
What the report shows
PROCEED WITH CAUTION (Base Case) This investment is financially positive, but the margin of safety is thin. Review the conservative scenario carefully.
| Units / Year | 40,000 |
| Revenue / Year | 16,000,000 SAR |
| % of Capacity Needed | 40.0% |
| Scenario | NPV | IRR | Payback | Profitability Index | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Optimistic | 49,869,373 SAR | 41.8% | 2.6 yrs | 2.85 | GO |
| Base | 2,455,188 SAR | 12.8% | 5.6 yrs | 1.09 | PROCEED WITH CAUTION |
| Conservative | -44,958,998 SAR | — | Not recovered | -0.67 | NOT FEASIBLE |
The conservative scenario assumes operations continue at a loss for the whole period.
The rating is a calculated result of the inputs under the tool's formulas; it is not an investment recommendation or financial advice.
The discount rate is a default and does not represent a sector benchmark.
Not included: It is a decision-support estimate built on the figures the client enters, and it does not replace a full study or legal, tax and financing due diligence.
The figures above come from hypothetical inputs; do not measure your own project against them.
