Technical Due Diligence
Independent assessment of aquaculture investments, operations, and production systems — covering technical, commercial, biological, and operational dimensions. From desktop analysis through to on-site evaluation, structured around what the investment or decision actually requires.
Site Selection & Planning
Infrastructure assessment, site suitability analysis, and production planning services for new and expanding aquaculture operations. Focused on technical and commercial viability — not environmental studies.
Production Modelling
Custom production models that translate biological and commercial assumptions into operational plans, forecasts, and business cases. Existing models — refined across multiple farm operations — are also available and ready to deploy.
Business Plan Reviews & Feasibility
Aquaculture business plan review, feasibility assessment, and investability studies for producers and project financiers. ACMS can also support development of a business plan from the ground up.
Value Chain Analysis & Risk
End-to-end value chain mapping, risk identification, and risk management planning across production, market, biological, and operational dimensions.
Management Services
ACMS can be contracted to provide governance-level management support for aquaculture operations and investments — covering production oversight, data, financial performance, and operational decision-making. Where needed, operators can be placed on the ground.
Financial Modelling & Cash Flow Forecasting
Financial models, cash flow forecasts, and scenario analyses that connect biological production assumptions to commercial outcomes. Covers expansion planning, investment preparation, and decision support at every stage of a project's financial lifecycle.
Financial Due Diligence & Reporting
Financial due diligence for investors and lenders, business plan financial review, and aquaculture-specific accounting and reporting support.
Marketing & Value Chain Development
Market access strategy, value chain commercialisation, and marketing support to connect aquaculture producers to buyers and strengthen routes to market.
Biosecurity, Environmental & Health Management
Biosecurity planning, environmental management frameworks, and animal welfare considerations for commercial operations. ACMS brings certified expertise in best practices across these areas — and critically, helps producers understand veterinary advice, develop implementation strategies, and monitor outcomes at an operational level.
Feed Advisory & Nutrition Services
In-house feed expertise covering due diligence on feed mills and equipment, feed trials, quality evaluation, and formulation review. ACMS also trains feed sales representatives to engage more effectively with farmers — bridging the gap between product knowledge and practical farm application.
Industry & Sector Development
ACMS works with governments, NGOs, and development organisations on policy influence, programme development, industry strategy, and livelihoods initiatives. With an established network of working relationships across the sector, ACMS supports capacity building, upskilling, and community aquaculture programmes — from design through to implementation and impact measurement.
