CHEMICAL PROCESS PLANT ECONOMICS & BENCHMARKING - OVERVIEW

Tecnon OrbiChem is renowned in the industry for the strength and quality of its chemical plant process economics and benchmarking service.

Using generic models compiled from experience in the field and updated for each project, Tecnon OrbiChem’s sector specific consultants including skilled plant engineers, visit major manufacturers to compare all aspects of the production process across countries and regions.

Issues discussed include the price and supply of raw materials, utilities, overheads etc.

We have the ability to exchange information so as to build up a picture of best practice in each company and any special circumstances. Our price histories are vital in order to "trade" data on costs of conversion for example.

We can assist banks and finance houses as an independent third party industry expert during M&A work, or to refocus "business models".

Tecnon OrbiChem uses two consulting approaches to benchmarking:

1. Consortium Benchmarking
This is the benchmarking of a group of interested companies. The inputs need to be examined by a neutral third party to ensure confidentiality. Best practice can be identified by our experts.

2. Competitive Benchmarking
This is organised much more rapidly for any single product or company. The results depend upon the abilities of the consultant to extract useful information, and it is important to use specialists not just a "procedure". Tecnon OrbiChem has considerable experience in this field.
