Overview

Projects are judged by what operates afterwards.

Counterparties
Ministries and state agencies, development finance institutions, agribusiness sponsors
Scope
Site assessment, capital structuring, EPC and equipment selection, PMO to commissioning
Engagement
Advisory through financing, or a full mandate to handover

An agricultural project is a sequence of decisions that are difficult to reverse: where it sits, how it is irrigated, how the product is stored, who operates it and against what specification. Most of the cost is committed before construction begins.

AQUAMERGE works on the sequence rather than the announcement. We test the site and the economics, structure the capital, select the engineering and equipment, and hold the programme to its cost, schedule and quality through commissioning.

Where a programme depends on fertilizer supply, the same mandate can hold the supply side — specification, contract and logistics — so the project is not financing an input it has not secured.

We tell you plainly whether the case holds. If it does not, we say so before capital is committed rather than after.

Scope

Four parts of the mandate.

Engaged separately or in sequence, with a single point of accountability across all four.

  1. 01

    Feasibility and site assessment

    Resource, water, soil, access and logistics assessed against the intended crop, output and market. Preliminary economics tested before design is fixed.

  2. 02

    Capital structuring

    Funding plan built around the revenue case, including development finance and export-credit participation where applicable.

  3. 03

    EPC and equipment selection

    Engineering, procurement and construction arrangements scoped and tendered, with equipment selected against operating requirements rather than catalogue claims.

  4. 04

    PMO through commissioning

    Governance across cost, schedule and change control, with reporting to sponsors and lenders and handover held to contract.

How we work

Five stages from mandate to handover.

  1. 01

    Mandate

    Objectives, sponsor structure, land position and the decision the mandate has to support.

  2. 02

    Feasibility

    Site, water, agronomy and logistics assessed; the case documented well enough to be financed.

  3. 03

    Capital

    Funding structure agreed with lenders and sponsors, with conditions understood before procurement.

  4. 04

    Delivery

    EPC and equipment contracted and managed, with cost, schedule and quality reported on a fixed cadence.

  5. 05

    Operation

    Commissioning, acceptance testing and handover to the operating entity, with documentation complete.

Where public support or sovereign participation is involved, the structure is agreed with the sponsoring institution before procurement begins.

Inputs for the programs we structure.

Why AQUAMERGE

One team from the first site visit to the first harvest.

Feasibility that survives financing

The case is written to be examined by lenders and sponsors, not to support a decision already taken.

Delivery discipline

PMO governance across cost, schedule and change control, with commissioning held to the contractual specification.

Inputs considered with the project

Fertilizer supply can be secured under the same mandate, so the operating case does not rest on an unpriced input.

Counterparties screened

KYC and AML screening on contractors, suppliers and counterparties before contracts are executed.
