Cover the fundamentals before you brief suppliers.

  • ·Define capacity, temperature bands and throughput
  • ·Confirm site, power, water and permits
  • ·Choose refrigerant strategy and automation level
  • ·Set redundancy, monitoring and validation targets
  • ·List required certifications (GDP, HACCP, BRC, ISO)
  • ·Agree budget envelope and financing route

Budget factors

What actually moves the number on a commercial cold-chain project.

  • ·Refrigeration plant + refrigerant choice
  • ·Panels, envelope, floors, doors and structure
  • ·Racking, MHE and automation level
  • ·Controls, monitoring, alarms and BMS
  • ·Redundancy (N, N+1, 2N) and validation
  • ·Country, logistics, duties and installation labour
