Feasibility and DPR review
Independent testing of resource, yield, cost and schedule assumptions in a project report.
Because the party that prepared it usually benefits from the project proceeding. An independent review tests the resource assumptions, the yield model, the cost estimate and the schedule against what the site actually supports, and says plainly where the report is optimistic.
What this includes
- Resource assumption verification
- Yield model reconstruction and testing
- Capital and operating cost benchmarking
- Schedule and approval timeline realism check
- Risk register review and gap identification
- Findings ranked by materiality
- What you receiveOutput
- Review report listing findings by materiality with a proceed or revise recommendation
- When you need itTiming
- Before board approval or financial close.
Approving a report prepared by the party who profits from approval. Optimism in resource and schedule assumptions is systematic rather than occasional.
