FEASIBILITY STUDIES
AUDES provides specialized consulting services aimed at evaluating the viability of projects. Our firm develops PEA (Preliminary Economic Assessment), PFS (Prefeasibility Study) and DFS (Definitive Feasibility Study) studies, which are essential to evaluate the viability and potential of a mining project at different stages of its development. These studies provide key information for decision-making and investments within the mining industry.
CONCEPTUAL ENGINEERING (CE)
AUDES accompanies its Clients in taking the first step to transform an idea or need into a clear and evaluated concept that lays the foundations for the subsequent stages of the project. From the beginning we work closely with our Clients to understand the specific needs of the project, through to basic and detailed engineering, including trade-off studies, bills of quantities, as well as specific options, optimizations and alternatives.
BASIC ENGINEERING (BE)
AUDES develops and defines the project through continuous communication with the CLIENT, using detailed information on site conditions and carefully analyzing relevant documentation and schematics. The result of this process is an exhaustive report that comprehensively describes the project. Additionally, it provides the CUSTOMER:
-
An initial schedule (Base Line).
-
A general estimate of capital expenditures (CapEx)
-
A general estimate of operating expenses (OpEx)
This approach guarantees a complete understanding of the project from its inception, offering the CLIENT a clear view of the deadlines, costs and financial projections associated with the development and execution of the project.
DETAIL ENGINEERING (DE)
Our professionals specialized in detailed engineering rely on basic engineering guidelines to prepare detailed construction plans. This phase adds an additional level of precision and documentation (known as APC drawings) that spans all project disciplines.
Detailed engineering deliverables include the detailed definition of materials, prefabricated assemblies and equipment to be purchased, ensuring accurate and unambiguous pricing and supplier selection. In addition, the construction methods, acceptance criteria, tests, trials, etc., are specified for the projects to be built. All geometric and dimensional aspects necessary for the manufacturing and assembly of the project components are defined. Also, a master schedule and CapEx estimate are provided, typically with an accuracy ranging between 5% and 10%.
