PRE-BUSINESS PLAN STUDY OF ESTABLISHING A SPECIALIZED TRAINING CENTER IN WARSAW

In this project, WMA conducted a comprehensive study of the feasibility of establishing a specialized training center in Warsaw, Poland, by a major U.S. corporation. The study included an assessment of the current and future market for the training center and the prospects of expanding the operation in Poland and to other countries in the region. WMA developed an operational concept for the training center which included a technical and financial approach. We conducted a financial break-even analysis and cash flow forecast, and we explained how the client could leverage current products and capabilities to minimize the start-up costs. We identified several sources of capital for financing the start-up and assessed the risk, and we obtained the latest tax and license information concerning the conduct of business in Poland by non-Polish companies. Lastly, we identified several prospective Polish companies that would be good candidates for a "joint venture" operation.
