Home/Capabilities/01 — Feasibility & Route Engineering
Feasibility & Route Engineering
Whether a move can be executed, along which corridor and at what approximate cost — established while the engineering, procurement and construction schedule can still absorb the answer.
01 — What is actually being decided
Logistics designed into the project, not added after it.
A feasibility study earns its fee by removing options early. These are the questions it closes before a transport commitment is made.
- 01Can the heaviest and largest pieces physically pass the corridor from origin to site?
- 02Which ports can receive the cargo — and which one gives the lowest total landed cost, not the lowest port tariff?
- 03Where do bridges, overhead lines, gradients and turning radii set the ceiling on piece size?
- 04Which seasonal windows — wind, swell, river stage, rainfall — govern the schedule?
- 05What does the move cost, as a budget range the project can carry into its financial model?
- 06Which political, social or security conditions along the route could stop it?
- 07Would a different port, vessel type, shipment size or modularisation make the project safer, faster or cheaper?
- 08Is the logistics budget in front of an investor or lender credible?
02 — Process
From premise to a defensible corridor.
Each stage narrows the options on the record, so the recommendation can be traced back to the constraint that produced it.
- 01
Project assessment
Cargo list, origins, site, schedule and the commercial outcome the project needs.
- 02
Chain mapping
Supplier, origin transport, export port, ocean leg, destination port, customs, inland leg, final site.
- 03
Route & port survey
Bridges, road geometry, overhead lines, tunnels, draft, quay strength and crane capacity, read on the ground.
- 04
Transport engineering
Axle loads, trailer configuration, turning radii, bridge and pavement assessment, dimensional clearance.
- 05
Windows & exposures
Weather and oceanographic criteria, seasonal restrictions and country-risk conditions along the corridor.
- 06
Budget & recommendation
Indicative logistics budget, risk register and a recommended strategy with its alternatives.
03 — Deliverables
What the client receives.
- Logistics feasibility study
- Route and road survey report

Cargo Engineering & Heavy Lift
Route ceiling and lift concept are read together: what the corridor cannot pass, no vessel can save.
06Port, Customs & Regulatory
Port A against Port B on total landed cost anchors every feasibility study.
07Execution & Control
The master plan becomes the baseline that execution is measured against.
