Problem

As a relative newcomer to the NZ dairy scene, Oceania Dairy has some pretty big plans. Their new dryer near Oamaru is just the first step. However they were aware that there were limitations on the surrounding infrastructure that may limit their growth path.

Solution

DETA Consulting worked with Oceania Dairy and the local lines company, Alpine Energy, to identify key development milestones for both parties to ensure that the local infrastructure would be available when it was required.

Outcome

Oceania has improved confidence and certainty to continue its plans.
