It offers comprehensive details on a number of business-related topics, including raw material costs, labour expenses, machinery, fixed capital for land and buildings, working capital, financial tools, Return on Investments, etc. 

The project’s technical and financial viability is determined by the techno-economic feasibility report (TFER). It covers issues like the technology to be employed, the necessary finances, the risks associated, the likelihood of profits, etc.

4. Finances 

Once the DPR and TEFR are completed, obtaining the finances needed to launch your business will be simple. In the country, there are numerous government programmes, subsidies, and grants that offer financial support, especially for MSMEs. 

5. Development and Marketing

In this cutthroat corporate environment, it’s critical to begin marketing efforts far in advance of the product's official release onto the market. It provides enough time to adapt successfully to the shifting market dynamics and client expectations. Therefore, it is advisable to begin marketing efforts as soon as the DPR and funding are complete. 

6. Machinery Procurement 

The type of machinery needed by the manufacturing business varies depending on the processes involved. You can choose between manually operated, semi-automated, or fully automated machinery, depending on the scale and expenditure.

7. Plan Layout Design

After placing your order for the machinery, you may begin planning your plant’s design. When the plant is prepared, you can install all of the necessary equipment to start production. 

The location of the factory has a significant impact on the final product’s price, so special consideration must be given while choosing the site by considering things like connectivity, the availability of water and energy, etc.

The business's productivity is based on how well-trained its human resources are. Therefore, in order to maximise their use, new businesses must have professionals training their workforce in a variety of production processes.   

9.  Product Prototyping & First Production Run

You can begin prototyping and testing the products after opening the plant and hiring staff. When prototyping, you will build a preliminary version of the product and test it to see if it lives up to expectations. It helps design the product more quickly and more affordably. 

The first production run should then be carried out to ensure that everything is operating according to plan on the shop floor.
