Federal Department of the Prime Minister and CabinetDoomadgee Bush Piggery Feasibility Study

Project overview

We were engaged to conduct a feasibility assessment and develop a CBA-based business model for the re-establishment of a piggery in Doomadgee, near the Northern Territory border in North Queensland.

The work involved:

  • A site visit to establish the condition of the existing piggery infrastructure
  • Desktop research to gauge the marketability of a semi-wild pig product from Doomadgee (including costs for infrastructure, ration, transport, freight, and operation)
  • Development of a detailed CBA showing the net present value of the facility over a 5-year operating period
  • Development of a feasibility report detailing findings of the assessment

Our team successfully determined the break-even price required for the product in order to make the proposal economically feasible in terms of capital and operational expenditure.
