Domestic Water Booster Pumps Manufacturing
Water booster pumps, also known as domestic water pumps, are auxiliary pumps
utilized to augment or sustain pressure in a potable water distribution system. Booster pumps
are most typically used in water distribution systems when there is fluctuating water
consumption. When consumption is low, the booster pump is put into standby mode. The
booster pump is triggered when the water demand is strong, ensuring that the appropriate
water pressure is maintained to meet the current, higher-order.
Booster pressure systems are generally comprised of one or more pumps and storage
tanks, and electronic control devices. Much water pressure is maintained in "mid-rise"
buildings, "low-pressure zones," "high-rise" structures, and facilities with a significant
fluctuation in water demand by installing these systems. Pumps that boost the water supply
pressure are activated when the rate of water use rises, or the water supply pressure falls
beneath acceptable limits. It is common practice to employ circulation pumps in regular
plumbing systems to circulate liquefied gases, specific liquids, and potable water, among
other things. The pumps that circulate the water are generally centrifugal, although they may
also be turbine pumps.
There is a significant potential to construct a manufacturing factory in Oman to
address the growing need for domestic water booster pumps in the country, which is now met
by importing them from other countries in the region. The infrastructure, raw materials,
process, and distribution for the project are all being developed by engineering principles and
other statutory bodies' recommendations. The manufacturing procedure involves various
kinds of raw materials and assembly operations to generate a finished product that is suitable
for usage. Our project will consist of establishing a manufacturing facility capable of
producing one million Domestic Water Booster Pumps per day. Our production plant for

domestic water booster pumps will be located in Muscat, Oman, as a result of market
research and compliance with manufacturing and quality requirements for domestic water
booster pumps. As a result, to achieve the quality standard and manufacturing requirements,
we want to create a specialized team that will search for any forms of compliance relevant to
the business both regionally and abroad.
Market research
Technological tools play a significant part in any study. We will utilize observations,
surveying, interviewing, and the research of present researchers to examine the current
market circumstances of the residential water booster pumps manufacturing industry in Oman
for this investigation. The rapidly rising Oman population (Hereher et al., 2020) has created a
significant need for a reliable water delivery system. This may be accomplished via a
residential water booster pumps manufacturing venture that considers the existing
infrastructure and the requirements of Oman.
In the Sultanate of Oman, WILO Water Pumps have been installed. They are currently
in use in various institutions, including the government-industry, water treatment facilities,
villas, shopping centres, hotel chains, resort towns, healthcare facilities, fishing farms,
irrigation farmlands, corporate headquarters, residences and business buildings other similar
establishments. The Oman Pumps solutions portfolio comprises systems integration,
engineering, manufacture, fabrication, assembling, implementation, commissioning, servicing
of pumps and water pumps, and pump and pumping system management. Modern research
and manufacturing capabilities are established at the Rusayl Industrial Estate to support these
efforts. We have also provided the worldwide experience to the local market via our strategic
agreements with powerful pump brands. By establishing a branch office and service centre in
Salalah, Oman Pumps can meet the demands of its clients across the Sultanate. These are the

primary home water booster pump manufacturing companies operating in Oman.
Nevertheless, their broad range of products does not keep up with the fast-increasing demand
in Oman, notably in Muscat city.
Research on the goods' markets is fundamental before starting any business venture.
We will have a specialized staff who will be actively involved in market research on a
worldwide scale. The team is made up of management, specialists, operations staff, and
members of certain groups such as physicians and chemical specialists. According to the
market study, the demand for the products will continue to expand over the next two years,
allowing the company to generate profitable operations. The current need for home water
booster pumps in Oman is increasing daily. Although these pumps should be manufactured
locally, they are currently imported from numerous countries to suit the market demand. In
addition, the user is under financial hardship due to the importation, which is more expensive
than if the product had been manufactured in Oman.
Globally, only 4-5 countries can satisfy the increasing demand for home water booster
pumps, despite the assumption that there is a significant chance to join the domestic water
booster pump manufacturing industry to meet at least the need of Omani family demands.
The lack of specialist raw materials, including cast iron materials, thermal resistant materials,
stainless steel substances, and plastic materials, is due to a scarcity of these resources.
However, at this time, although adequate quantities of raw materials and the required
standards of quality are accessible, the number of production units has not yet grown to the
point where the complete demand can be met. In Oman, most of the market's need is met by
imports, creating an excellent opportunity to develop a unit dedicated to producing residential
water booster pumps.
Feasibility study

Considering the current water scarcity and the projected population expansion, the
need for the manufacture of water booster pumps has been steadily increasing. In particular,
countries that rely heavily on other countries to supply their wants are under intense pressure
to meet market demand. Manufacturing economies are also under tremendous strain to
manufacture a sufficient number of water booster pumps manufacturing to satisfy the needs
of the Oman population.
Because of the increasing demand, we can go on with our project plan to develop a
manufacturing unit for water booster pumps in Oman. Oman is experiencing an order that
exceeds supply, as shown by the emergence of new families with large populations. In Oman,
population expansion is outpacing the country's ability to meet the growing demand for
household water. Thus, the economic climate in Muscat is excellent for the installation of
water booster pumps manufactured in the Sultanate of Oman.
The raw materials are readily available in adequate quantities. Still, the number of
manufacturing units available to create water booster pumps in sufficient quantities to fulfil
market demand is limited. As a result, we can proceed with this project, knowing that it has a
high likelihood of success and will be lucrative. Muscat has the resources necessary to
construct, operate, and manage a manufacturing facility. These resources are readily
accessible in the city. This will enable our project to be a success when it comes to its real
operations and implementation. To gather more information about the market conditions in
terms of demand for water booster pumps manufacturing, we will conduct a personal
interview and online surveys, questionnaires, published reports, and the most recent publicly
available government documents to conduct the feasibility test.
Objective:

This initiative aims to conduct a feasibility study and recommend the creation of a
domestic water booster pumps manufacturing factory in Oman, with a producing capacity of
at least 20,000 home water booster pumps per year.
Stakeholder Impact Analysis:
In addition to investors and the government, the enterprises have a variety of stakeholders
such as workers and debtors and the communities, suppliers, and trade unions, among others.
The most critical stakeholders in our project are the end-users, the general public, the
authorities, households, suppliers of raw materials, and the firm's workers, to name just a few.
A critical study has been carried out to comprehend the implications for each stakeholder
further.
Users from the households:
Because they require domestic booster pumps regularly to provide a consistent water
supply, households are arguably the most important stakeholders for our project goods. In
recent years, the usage of residential booster pumps has increased due to an increase in the
global population. Domestic booster pump sales increased at a compound annual growth rate
(CAGR) of 4 percent between 2015 and 2021, reaching a market value of US$ 2.52 billion in
2021 (Future Market Insights, 2022). According to the International Water, an expanding
world demographic, steadily rising domestic water supply-demand, higher water utilization,
the escalating emergence of high-rise housing developments, and urban sprawl are significant
factors that will influence domestic booster pump demand through the 2030 Supply
Association (IWA). According to the prediction, growing residential building activities in
places such as East Asia and North America are expected to give favourable possibilities for
local booster pump makers over this time frame. On the other hand, the marketplace is

projected to be constrained to some degree by technical challenges that home water booster
pumps are expected to encounter.
Government:
Government is an external shareholder in all firms and has a stake in their success.
The government is regarded as one of the most critical stakeholders since it collects taxes
from these businesses in the form of corporate income tax and individual income tax from its
workers. As a result, the government's investment in enterprises is represented by taxes and
gross domestic product. It encourages businesses to invest and generate employment, and in
some instances, it even offers tax breaks to corporations operating in specific industries. The
government safeguards the personnel of the organization. In addition, the government
provides enterprises with growth prospects and protection against unfair competition from
multinational corporations (Ennis, 2015).
It enhances infrastructure, which is required to transport raw materials and our
domestic booster pumps from the production site to the market and is subsidized by the taxes
paid by these firms, among other things. Additionally, the government assures that these
businesses will not cause damage to the broader population. As a result, the government
guarantees that every firm complies with these established rules before, during, and after its
formation and during and after its operation. It also ensures that enterprises adhere to ethical
business practices intended to promote fair competition and safeguard consumers.
Employees:
Our most important stakeholders are our personnel, involved in manufacturing
operations, followed by our operational, marketing, and logistics teams, all of whom are
critical to the effective execution of our sales strategy. A manufacturing facility in Oman will
provide work for many individuals who have lost their jobs as a result of the Covid-19

outbreak. This will aid them in overcoming the hard blow of the financial crisis that occurred
during the epidemic and return to an average level of living existence (Crane, 2020).
Project Management Analysis:
Project Scope:
As a result of expanding urbanization worldwide and the growing need for improved
water management infrastructure, demand for pumps for household water delivery has risen
significantly. Residential infrastructure activity has grown dramatically in recent years, and it
is expected to continue in a similar pattern until 2030. As the quantity of residential
complexes grows, so does the need for residential, domestic water booster pumps, domestic
water booster pump systems, and domestic booster units, among other products.
This project will use a new and creative production strategy and the installation of a
new and contemporary machine that will create the most significant amount of product in the
shortest amount of time. Over the last several years, sustainability has emerged as a critical
area of concern. It is projected to significantly impact the potential of domestic booster
pumps markets in the following years. The perception of consumers about energy efficiency
increased research and development for environmentally friendly goods, and other factors are
expected to significantly raise the potential of the domestic booster pump equipment market.
Domestic water booster pump packages and domestic water booster pump systems are being
outfitted with VFD (variable frequency drive) technology to increase their efficiency while
reducing their environmental effect to the greatest extent possible (Menke et al., 2017). Raw
materials (cast iron materials, heat resistant materials, stainless steel substances, and plastic
materials), equipment, engineers, manufacturing space, employees and labourers, financial
resources, and authorizations are all necessary for manufacturing to take place.

Specifically, the project aims to establish a manufacturing unit in Muscat in Oman,
producing domestic booster pumps to meet the local market's demand, including stakeholders
such as the government, households, educational and medical institutions, suppliers, and
employees. At the outset, the facility will install gear that will allow it to manufacture at least
one thousand pumps each day continuously. Later on, it is anticipated that the manufacturing
capacity would be increased to five thousand pieces per day. This will permit not only the
meeting of local demand but also the selling of the manufacturing units to other countries in
the Gulf region.
Quality Aspects:
Domestic booster pump manufacturers should provide quality assurance at the facility
to satisfy global quality standards. According to the manufacturer, the high-quality water
booster pump included in the residential booster pumps standard will improve the household
water pressure by up to 20 psi. Each brass union is connected to a single switch, and it simply
plugs into a standard outlet. The construction of residential booster pumps should be an
efficient approach to improving water pressure throughout your home. The pump activates
instantly whenever the water pressure dips, and it will often increase your water pressure by
35-40 psi in general. It should come with a 6-foot power wire, allowing you to simply
connect it to a standard 120-volt outlet without any hassle. Because the pump is constructed
of stainless steel, it is immune to corrosion and rust.
The water booster pump will be a high-quality motor that will increase the water
pressure in the home. So that it does not get damaged, this self-priming pump will be
equipped with built-in safety mechanisms, such as dry run prevention. It is also quite quiet, so
it will not wake anyone up if running in the middle of the night. The diaphragmatic pressure
tank that is included inside the unit will aid in lowering the number of stars. A control valve, a

flow sensor, and a controller are all included within the pump as well. The water pressure
booster pump is a high-quality water pump that can provide consumers with an extra 50
pounds per square inch (psi) of water pressure. The casings and impellers of the pump are
constructed of corrosion-resistant stainless steel. It will be equipped with the clever Torrium 2
controller, which continuously monitors entering water pressure, enables adaptable
beginning, and offers empty run safety when necessary (Hauber-Davidson & Shortt, 2011).
WBS
When you hear the term "Work Breakdown Structure," you're thinking about how
you're going to achieve a sophisticated, multi-step project plan. It is the practice of breaking
down and conquering large undertakings in order to finish the duties more quickly and
effectively. It enables for effective allocation of work between the many departments within
the company. The scope of the current project has been described as the establishment of a
manufacturing factory for domestic water booster pumps, among other things. Our initiative
is primarily focused on meeting the needs of Oman during the next two years. There are
various components to the current project, including market research, feasibility testing,
planning, resource procurement, infrastructure expansion, plant and equipment installation,
the planning process, approaches, implementation, communication, and evaluation. The
process of producing domestic booster pumps is further divided into numerous stages,
including raw material acquisition, inputs processing, assembly line, testing, packaging,
quality testing, and distribution. The following is an illustration of the project's work
breakdown structure:

Cast iron materials, heat-resistant materials, stainless steel compounds, and plastic
materials, among other raw materials, are introduced into the process of domestic booster
pump manufacture at the beginning of the process. The procedure entails; the manufacturing
process makes it possible to have an active casting phase that lasts 24 hours. In comparison to
other makers of automobile replacement parts, one of the factory's primary distinguishing
characteristics stems from its being one of the few that combines the casting process inside its
own facilities. The injection process will be completely automated and robotized, enabling us
to correctly and efficiently minimize any threats that may be presented to the end product's
quality.
When it comes to machining, this process is equipped with extremely efficient
robotization mechanisms and precise technology that ensures that requirements are met
across the pumping industry. In addition, automated lines are used to enhance productivity in
series with more than 3,000 pieces, and the assembly process has a vast capacity, with the
ability to create up to 100,000 pieces each week. As a result of having more than half a
million water pumps on hand, effective stock management is required in order to minimize
manufacturing costs while still maintaining short delivery times on orders that are made. We,
as a firm, will ensure the quality of our goods throughout the various stages of their
manufacture. Our staff' considerable expertise as water pump manufacturers, together with
the continuous refinement and invention of our manufacturing methods, enables us to
guarantee that our products are perfectly adaptable to every environment in which they are
used. As a result, we are able to verify that the water pumps comply with all applicable laws
regarding their adaptability and functioning.

Time Schedule Analysis:
The project will begin with a research stage to better comprehend market demand,
which will be accomplished by categorizing the stakeholders into distinct groups. Then, from

the time it takes to make the domestic booster pump to the time it takes to complete the
ultimate distribution procedure, everything will take its time. We will utilize the Gantt chart
approach to evaluate the project schedule since it enables for the construction, comparison,
and modification of the schedule in real-time. There are several project management
strategies that are widely utilized. All of the procedures will take a varying amount of time
depending on the step you are looking at in the list underneath.

When a project activity is completed, the next action begins at a different time and for
a different length of time. Although certain actions are continuous, others must be conducted
in tandem with each other in order for the process to be completed successfully, other
operations are one-time only. The Gantt chart below illustrates the entire project process,
including each step and the time allotted for each step. This can help you get a better
knowledge of the project's flow. The project will finish its first manufacturing cycle inside 53

days of its inception, which will include ultimate testing and dissemination as well as the
final assessment and delivery.
Project timeline and schedule
Cost/Budget Analysis:
This is the entire amount of money that must be spent to make a project operational in
order for it to produce the commodities or products that are planned for sale. It has a huge
influence on the overall profitability and viability of a project since it represents the whole
cost of the project. As a result, before to beginning any project, it is vital to develop a budget,
as well as to maintain close supervision over the project's progress. To evaluate the project, a
cost-benefit analysis will be performed. This analysis comprises BEP analysis, cash flow
statement, and PV analysis among other things (Isnaeni, 2019).

It is a technique that offers a full picture of the project cost, which implies that it
compares the costs paid with the rewards that would be derived from the project. It also helps
in the design of strategies, the planning of projects, the execution of projects, and the revision
of processes to ensure that the most advantage is obtained from the resources spent. In
layman's terms, a cost-benefit analysis offers an outline of how much a firm will make after
considering the estimated costs associated with that enterprise (Lin, 2020).
There will also be significant financial investment required to build an operational
business as part of the current undertaking. Amounts already spent on domestic booster pump
machinery, infrastructural developments and acquiring statutory permissions, computer
networks, laboratory machineries, technological expertise, automobiles, marketing and sales,
and working capital requirements to cover daily expenditures will be deducted from the
remaining project cost. The following is an example of a cost analysis for an existing project:

At an initial level, the entire cost of the project is 63,000.00 OMR, which will be
covered partly (50 percent) by the proprietors and the remainder by the Bank of Muscat
(BoM). This would be a term loan, with the goal of having it completely paid off within two
years of the company's activities starting up. Additionally, the cost of the project has been
shown visually in the following chart:
Flow Charts of Production Process & Flow of Material Component for Production:
Flow Charts of Domestic booster pumps Manufacturing:
The production process with the material movement has been demonstrated in-depth
in the preceding section, which primarily shows how raw materials will be placed, then by
the manufacturing procedure, and finally the output. The acquisition of the necessary raw
materials, which includes the selection of lead-free parts, is the first step in the process. The
raw material is scrubbed in preparation for governing the practice in the next phase, and the
process of surface treatment is initiated, accompanied by the manufacturing of basic pumps.
The excess layers of the raw gloves are removed in the next stage by chemical cleaning, and
the pumps are then prepared for the interior coating process. The beading process is
continued by the hardening of the pumps in the following phases. In the last step, the pumps
are subjected to leakage testing in the laboratory, after which the final assessment is
performed out by the investigation committee. After passing the inspection, the units are
packaged and sent to the market for sale to end-users, where they are sold.

Risk Management Analysis:

The study of 'Risk Management' comprises of a number of steps that should be taken
in order to prevent events from occurring or to remove the risk. In layman's terms, it is a
technique for describing each and every activity in order to avoid the risk from becoming a
reality. Planning, organizing, directing, and controlling are the four primary processes in a
risk assessment study, and they are all intertwined. It is primarily concerned with the assets of
the company that have been invested in the business operation. The control procedure
identifies and mitigates the risk when it has been discovered (Peterson, 2020). A number of
hazards are associated with this project, which may be generally categorized into three
categories: 'Process Risk,' 'System Risk,' and 'External Risk.' Process risk may be caused by
omissions, carelessness, or deception. Process risk may be caused by 'internal process
inadequacies,' which might occur as a result of ineffective management. Physical damages to
data storage devices, incorrect maintenance, network delay, and a security vulnerability are
all examples of system risks. Natural catastrophes, theft, vandalism, and power interruptions
are all examples of external risks.

The related risks and their implications for the current project are detailed in further detail
below, with the use of a risk matrix.
Completion Phase:
During the final stage, all project achievements and each action are conveyed to all
stakeholders in a clear and concise manner. Email, text messaging, and a written statement
will be sent to the specified address in order to communicate with the recipient. In order to
ensure adequate documenting of every transaction, a dedicated staff of four workers is
formed, whose only responsibility is to ensure that accurate records are kept for reference
purposes. A contract has also been entered into with the suppliers, which contains specific
terms and conditions on the quality control, amount purchased, price, discount, and most
importantly, a clear description of the circumstances that will result in the contract's
cancellation. Currently, an established enterprise is being managed as a continuing problem;
but, in the event that the company is forced to close, explicit directions and rules have been
established, which include the method for closing the firm as well as the necessary
communications with all stakeholders.
Lesson learnt
This project provides me with an excellent possibility to learn about a variety of
business facets, including how to conduct research, strategize a project before it begins,
allocate resources, carry out the planning, develop strategies, incorporate significant control,
understand why effective influence is essential for business success, and ensure that
employees' workplace environment is stable and secure. I am also learning about how to
ensure adherence with applicable laws and regulations. Nevertheless, there are some

problems and obstacles that arise throughout the project procedure, such as the difficulty in
identifying key resources such as raw materials for the procedures, the difficulty in recruiting
skilled employees, the difficulty in formulating a strategy, and the difficulty in putting it into
action at the operational level. All procedures have proceeded well, with the exception of the
execution phase, which has encountered a few minor obstacles, which have been resolved
with the assistance of strategic technologies, methodologies, and methods. Overall, it is a
really fantastic project that enables me to learn a great deal about business while also
allowing me to get firsthand knowledge of company culture and how it operates.
