Feasibility Studies

Scantech has assisted more than 200+ clients with customised feasibility studies and due diligence programs to support both technical and commercial decision-making.

Better decisions before you invest

Our feasibility studies are designed to help customers understand where online analysis can create value before committing to a full project. Each study is tailored to the application, commodity, process conditions and business objectives of the site.

Rather than providing generic product recommendations, we assess the specific operating context, including material variability, measurement objectives, process control opportunities, installation requirements and potential value drivers. This allows customers to make informed decisions based on practical site conditions, expected performance and realistic return on investment.

What Is Assessed

Each feasibility study is structured around the technical and commercial realities of the site.

Assessment may include:


  • Technology selection and application suitability
  • Expected analyser performance for key elements or parameters
  • Material variability and operating conditions
  • Process control and operational improvement opportunities
  • Installation and integration considerations
  • Commercial justification and ROI modelling
  • Project risk reduction prior to capital approval

 

The scope is defined according to the commodity, process environment and business objectives of the operation.

What You Receive

A feasibility study provides a clear, application-focused assessment to support internal review and investment decisions.

Outcomes may include:

  • Independent evaluation of application suitability
  • Practical performance expectations under site conditions
  • Identification of value drivers and improvement opportunities
  • Preliminary integration considerations
  • Structured input to support capital approval processes


This approach supports more confident technical specifications and commercial justification.

When to Engage a Feasibility Study

A feasibility study may be appropriate when:

Why Feasibility Matters

Technical Alignment

Online analysis must suit the specific commodity, material characteristics and operating environment

Performance Expectations

Understanding expected analyser performance under real site conditions avoids unrealistic assumptions.

Commercial Justification

Clear ROI modelling and value identification support internal capital approval processes.

Risk Reduction

Identifying installation, integration and operational considerations early reduces project uncertainty.

Reducing Technical and Commercial Risk

With decades of experience across cement, coal, minerals and bulk materials handling, Scantech provides an independent, application-focused assessment of how online analysis can support improved process stability, product quality and operational performance.

Our goal is simple: to help customers make better technical and commercial decisions before they invest.

FAQs

Is a feasibility study required before purchasing an analyser?

Not always. The need depends on the complexity of the application and site conditions.

No. Feasibility studies are conducted prior to installation to assess suitability and requirements.

Yes. They can support both new projects and existing operations considering upgrades or additional monitoring.

Feasibility studies assess suitability and configuration considerations. Final performance depends on installation, calibration and operating conditions.

No. The scope is defined based on material, application and plant requirements.
