Product: A comprehensive description of the product, and the addition of available samples, photographs and brochures, as well as a statement of specifications and standards applicable to the product.

• Supply and demand: Determine the percentage of opportunities of local producers and their productive capacities, and determine the quantities imported, their items and products and their estimated market share. The volume of demand can be determined by subtracting the volume of exports from the product from the total sales of domestic producers and imports, i.e. the margin between what was put on the market and Which is exported to know the extent of demand for the product locally, and whether it is required more in the local market or outside, and possible to know this information from foreign trade statistics, and can know the products manufactured locally from the Ministry of Commerce and Industry,Also During the ONYX’s search team, and the foreign partner, if any, but if the project is intended exclusively to the product in a particular area marketing should focus on this region.
• Prices: study and analyze the prevailing price structure of the product in the local market and any other markets related to the project and know the price of selling the product from local factories and the price of import, and then pricing the new product in light of prices and expected production cost.
• Expected sales and market share Estimates of total demand volume (domestic and foreign) on the project’s products, specifications and future expectations for demand and hence the estimated volume of production and production capacity based on its expected share of domestic and foreign markets.
• Competition: Studying the effects of competition and the knowledge of competitors and their strengths is important both internal and external competition in order to reach the ways of firm presence in the market, both domestic and external, there are strengths and weaknesses of each competitor.
• Distribution: Identify sales and distribution channels, develop a marketing strategy and methods suitable for distribution, search for wholesale sales or conclude a marketing agreement, facilitate the product from the factory to the end consumer through the most efficient and low-cost distribution channels.

The technical study is concerned with the definition of the industry concerned, the economies of scale, the factors affecting them, and the sources of technology covering the following aspects:

• Selecting the location of the project: The requirements of the infrastructure are determined from electricity, water, roads, storage, transportation and communications. The most economically and technically relevant locations for the project are examined not only in comparison between city and others, , Where some industrial projects may require special specifications and requirements such as proximity to the project site from sources of raw materials and the availability of regular and equipped means of transport and others.
• Development of a project outline: taking into account all of its facilities needs, possibilities and prospects for future expansion, identification of the land area including the area of manufacturing facilities, production, storage, management, corridors, parking spaces and other areas designated for industrial activities; Spare parts, techniques, sources, raw materials, intermediate and other necessary operating requirements (local and imported), indicating their quantities, sources and prices, and determining the project’s needs of electricity, water, fuel, oil and sewage Indicating the sources or how to provide them and their cost, as well as packaging materials with a statement of sources and cost, and a statement of methods of transport, distribution and storage.
• Machinery, equipment and manufacturing method: The method of manufacturing is studied from the entry of raw materials to the arrival of the final product and if the product has several stages, the study of each stage separately, including detailed steps for the processes of product formation and additives overlapping in the production line. The investor must know the quality and number of machines for the production process and support operations. This involves technical specifications such as the necessary electrical energy, cooling or steam services, air pressure of the machine, and the way of controlling the factory environment such as entering the air and leaving it to control the appropriate temperature or the appropriate air conditioning and the appropriate Humidity. The food industry also needs preventive health needs, and for the toxic gas industry it needs to take safety measures to protect workers and public health. The most important information that must be taken into consideration is the detailed plan, location of machinery and equipment inside the building, places of storage of raw materials, materials under manufacture, finished products, maintenance workshop site, laboratory, etc. Attention must be given to the smooth flow of production and the drawing of an illustration showing the route of the material or raw materials from handling through the various forming processes to packaging, if any.
• Waste treatment, security and safety: Each plant has outputs or residues resulting from the manufacturing process, so it is important to describe the methods of treatment of the waste of the plant, whether gas or liquid and solid to make it conform to the specifications and know the equipment for treatment of unwanted industrial waste (Liquid waste treatment plants and air purifiers). At this stage, a table showing all machines, manufacturing machines and equipment for fire fighting, air conditioning, water treatment, safety devices, backup power generators and laboratory equipment is included and a special table for the internal transport equipment of the factory, such as forklifts, mobile cranes, Under the above item.
• Buildings: In the case of preparation of the study on buildings, the standards and requirements of the building on the site of the Industrial Property Authority must be observed. The general plan of the factory shows the area, industrial buildings, service buildings and the main utilities (sewage, water and electricity). Building drawings for the building components, floors and foundations, brief descriptions of the main features of the buildings, a diagram indicating safety equipment and equipment, minimizing the risks and methods necessary to ensure the safety of the plant and its personnel to protect against fire hazards or any risks resulting from Manufacturing or transport operations.
• Search for sources of materials: means primary raw materials and packaging materials with an indication of its source or alternative sources of purchase.

It includes the estimation of all investment and operational costs and analysis of financial and economic feasibility of the project as follows:

• Capital costs: means fixed assets, working capital and pre-operating expenses, which include expenditures on consultancy studies, travel and transportation, establishment costs, licenses, etc.
• Sources of funding: include the available costs locally and externally and suggest the appropriate sources whether they are fully self-generated or through investment loans or through participation.
• Determining the capital structure (ratio of capital to loans) and estimating the cost of financing in light of the terms and conditions of available financing alternatives.
• Determine fixed and variable production costs.
• Development of project financial statements and expected flows showing total income and net income of the project.
• Analysis of financial and commercial feasibility indicators for the project, including commercial profitability, internal rate of return and recovery period.

• Financial study.
• Marketing study.
• Technical study (raw materials, machinery, labor, fixed and non-fixed assets).
• Competitors in the domestic and foreign market.
• Exports and imports.
• Electrical energy, water consumption, cooling need, air pressure and steam, soil testing work.
• Transportation.
• Direct and indirect costs.
• Finding a technical partner when needed (technology transfer, franchise, technical support).
