The company was in the process of establishing a 330 KLD grain-based distillery for ENA and Ethanol production. We helped by providing technical due diligence and project cost monitoring. The project was valued at 687 Cr.
The company aimed to launch a 330 KLD grain-based distillery project to produce ENA and Ethanol, supported by a bottling line and captive power plant. The company faced challenges such as conducting technical due diligence, managing project cost revisions, monitoring construction progress, maintaining structured reporting across sub-projects, and ensuring timely commencement of operations despite cost overruns and scope changes.
Internally, the company had to manage complex technical due diligence and ensure accurate project cost vetting. Coordinating multiple sub-projects required a structured reporting system and integrated monitoring. Additionally, internal alignment was crucial to meet the commercial operation deadline despite cost overruns and scope changes.
The company faced evolving project costs that required timely approvals and justifications to external stakeholders. Monitoring construction progress and aligning with external contractors and vendors posed logistical hurdles. Regulatory compliance and adapting to market expectations also added external pressure throughout the project lifecycle.
Dun & Bradstreet supported by delivering a comprehensive Technical Due Diligence Report, vetting project costs, and monitoring both physical and financial progress until the project's commercial launch. Their expertise in appraising over 110 distillery projects, strategic pricing, and commitment to timelines enabled them to identify technical gaps, manage cost revisions effectively, and ensure structured reporting—ultimately helping the project achieve timely commencement despite challenges.
