Engineering Advisory & Feasibility
Structured early-stage engineering to protect capital, reduce risk, and stabilise execution.
Engineering certainty must precede capital deployment
This Strategic Engineering & Feasibility Session is for
This structured advisory engagement is designed for funded projects requiring disciplined early-stage engineering.
Appropriate For
- Funded capital projects
- Robotics and automation integration into mining operations
- Brownfield upgrades and constrained operating sites
- Hazardous or high-consequence process environments
- Multi-stage capital development programs
- Clients requiring structured EPCM advisory oversight
Why Capital Projects Destabilise
Many automation and mining integration projects encounter instability not due to execution capability, but due to insufficient engineering definition before capital escalation.
- Procurement initiated before system architecture is defined
- Vendor quotations shaping scope instead of engineering logic
- Underdeveloped layout and integration strategy
- Throughput assumptions not validated against operational constraints
- Robotics layered onto unstable process systems
- Capital approval sought prior to structured feasibility definition
Strategic Engineering & Feasibility Session
A fixed-fee, senior-led engineering workshop designed to create early clarity, retire risk, and establish a disciplined pathway before procurement pressure begins.
Structured engineering is the lowest-cost risk control available in capital projects. This is not a casual meeting. It is a defined engineering deliverable.
Deliverables
- Structured risk and constraint analysis
- High-level system architecture direction
- Layout considerations (site constraints, interfaces, safety zoning)
- Throughput and feasibility discussion
- Indicative capital band discussion
- Written summary with recommended next steps
Format
- Duration: 90 minutes
- Participants: Project Director + Senior Design Engineer
- Fee: Fixed (published)
- Pre-review of client brief required
Post-Session Pathways – What Happens After the Session
- Strategic Session (90 min)
- Written Summary issued (recommended pathway + key risks/constraints)
- Option A — Defined Feasibility Study
- Option B — Ongoing Engineering Advisory (as required)
- Option C — No further action
Project Pathway Are you ready to start your project
Engineering Advisory Continuity (Optional Retainer)
For multi-stage mining and automation programs and constrained brownfield sites, Mexx can provide structured advisory continuity to support governance decisions before procurement commitments are made.
Suitable for
- Multi-stage automation roll-outs
- Brownfield operational plants
- Hazardous or high-consequence systems
- Modular repeatable plant / cell deployment
What it includes (bullets)
- Priority scheduling
- Senior oversight prior to procurement decisions
- Hours-based conversion model (not “subscription”)
- Gate-controlled progression
