Owner’s Engineering

Execution-ready owner representation for PV factory programs

Independent and vendor-neutral, we protect the owner’s interests from concept to commissioning—aligning scope, design quality, procurement, and delivery so your factory reaches targets with fewer surprises and faster decisions.

 

What we deliver

Kick-Start / Investor Package

Capacity baseline, land/building needs, manpower, power & water, CAPEX (equipment, utilities, buildings), TCO snapshot, market/technology overview, reference timeline, high-level product specs.

Technology Evaluation & Selection

Option review per section, market outlook, efficiency roadmaps, global capacity shares, process flows, SWOT, CAPEX/TCO/LCOE comparisons, manpower & consumption, product portfolio, and (for cell) evolution roadmap; plus a basis document (overview → pricing → selection rationale).

Project Management Setup

Project Definition Document, org chart & communication matrix, timeline & tracking, master deliverables list, scope split.

Cost & Economics

PV value-chain cost calculator (BoM/consumptions, utilities, labor, depreciation, logistics) producing unit cost/COGS/TCO; Business Plan inputs; full Financial Model (P&L clusters, DCF, EBITDA, NPV, IRR).

Schedule & Line Design

Level-1 master schedule (permitting → engineering → procurement → construction → install → hook-up → commissioning → ramp-up); Integrated Line Balancing (capacity, CTM/efficiency, required tool counts across process, automation, aux tools, QC, AGV, MES), utilization & debottlenecking analysis.

Utilities & Facilities

Conceptual Facility Utility Matrix (FUM) (power, water/UPW/process cooling/waste, gases & exhausts, waste streams) sized to pre-selected tech/vendors.

Layouts & Roombook

Section-wise production layouts (equipment placement, flows for people/material/process, AGV routes, buffers); Roombook (dimensions, floor levels, ambient conditions, cleanroom class).

Site Master Plan & Design Basis

SMP (locations, logistics, utilities proximity, safety); Design Basis (phasing, buffers, extendibility, upgrade paths).

Project Execution Strategy

EPC/turnkey vs. hybrid (“turnkey-light”, cherry-picking) with pros/cons aligned to risk profile and resources.

Digital Factory (MES) Design Basis

Functional description (orders, genealogy, quality, maintenance, performance), components & interfaces (equipment/ERP/server/database), hierarchy & integration approach.

Materials Engineering

BoM list & key vendors, price trends, storage conditions, material-flow calculator, raw-material specifications (and vendor spec matching where needed).

Human Resources Plan

Organization for project & operations; role definitions; headcount by capacity and shifts.

Procurement Readiness

RFQ pack & term sheets (process, automation, aux, MES, AGV), bid evaluations (shortlist + quantitative final evaluation), recommendations.

Contracts & Technical Annexes

Contract draft (EPC/turnkey/single-tool); Acceptance protocols (Pre-FAT, FAT, shipment, site delivery, SAT-0/1/2/3); Performance warranties; Equipment specifications (ingot/wafer/cell/module), MES SoW, raw-material specs.

Quality & Product

QA plan; module Product Datasheet drafts; QC tools list & specs.

Training (Docs Package)

Intro to PV, section-wise equipment, basic process, QA/QC.

Phase-2 Execution Support

Move-in planning & readiness certification; on-site ramp-up support and acceptance test reporting; on-site training; O&M support (troubleshooting, KPIs, TCO monitoring, consumption/cost-reduction roadmap).

All in one engineering solutions for your factory

Outputs you receive by the end of Owner’s Engineering

Delivered in editable formats (native CAD/Excel/Word/PPT + PDFs) with full revision control, tailored to your site, capacity, and technology.

Frequently asked questions

How is Owner’s Engineering different from Lender’s Engineering?

Owner’s Engineering directs and assures scope, technical quality, procurement, and delivery on behalf of the owner. Lender’s Engineering independently reviews risks/progress for financiers and does not direct execution.

To make it clear, we have prepared a comparison page. You can find it here

Can you work with our preferred vendors and EPC?

Yes—our approach is independent and vendor-neutral. We integrate preferred partners while keeping decisions aligned to scope, performance, safety, and lifetime cost.

When should Owner’s Engineering start?

Right after Feasibility/DPR and before procurement—so Owner’s Requirements, BoD, interfaces, and technical schedules are locked ahead of tenders and contracts.

What inputs are needed to begin?

Target capacity/product mix, candidate site constraints, delivery model (EPC/EPCM/multi-lot), budget class, and timeline.
