Areas of Expertise
Start Up planning
The best way to breathe life to a concept is by modeling the next "1 + 5" years of your concept on "paper". This is done by authoring a financial proforma capturing Sales, COGS, Operational, Personnel, Marketing & Real Estate Expenses, CAPEX (Equipment), Pre-Construction & Construction Expenses into a robust spreadsheet to determine the start-up valuation, ROI, and breakeven analysis of your plan. In short, it is a dry-run of your 1 year of start-up plus 5 years of business assumptions that clearly communicate your assumptions to you, your investors and your bank.
Project consulting
Beyond the proforma and funding starts the actual execution of the plan. HRVST has extensive Owner's Representative experience to shepherd through the process. This may include Real Estate feasibility and selection, lease negotiation, Construction design team selection and management, design assistance and coordination, construction team selection, process pipe design, specialty installation assistance, equipment selection and procurement, construction management, commissioning assistance, and brewery commissioning.
process design & controls automation
HRVST has in-house brewery process and controls automation capabilities. This includes systems such as centralized CIP systems, process fluids transfer lines, utility and energy process pipe design (glycol and steam). Custom equipment design for retrofit or unique processes is also within our capacity.
design assist
Beyond the site and building Electrical, Lighting, Mechanical, Plumbing, and Structural engineering disciples (which is usually managed by the project Architect) - exists specialty process systems unique to the integration of the beer process. Interconnecting design details starting from raw materials to finished product, from flow logistics to expansion planning are aspects of facility design often neglected in the permit design process for breweries. HRVST provides design input assistance to the project Architect and building design Engineers for proper design consideration of all process spacial and utility needs.
(Beverage scope) Beer program & recipe formulation
HRVST has the ability to program and design your beer program. Custom beer programs can range from typical ale and lager fermentation to barrel aging, sour programs, brett programs, blending, etc.
(LIFE SCIENCE SCOPE) regulatory preparation
Through the perspective of Real Estate and Production Process project development, pre-design decisions will need to keep regulatory requirements in mind. Our experience in this field will ensure the project is aligned for regulatory requirements such as Installation Qualifications (IQ) Operational (OQ) and Performance Qualification (PQ) protocols and other requirements as identified. (Note: Actual protocol development will be developed by others).
