- Under-estimating working capital
- Buying more capacity than the market can absorb in year one
- Starting approvals after construction
- Selecting machinery on price alone
- Hiring late and training too little
- Planning production but not sales and distribution
Each of these is easier to fix on paper than after the plant is built. A structured feasibility stage exists to catch them early.
