Business Model Assessment and Investment Decision Support (Indonesia)

A client planned a large-scale electric-motorcycle rental business in Bali, including potential cooperation with local government. The plan was assessed for ROI, regulatory exposure and market viability.

Context

A client planned to establish a large-scale rental business for electric motorcycles in Bali, including potential cooperation with local government stakeholders.

The project was intended to form the basis for investor engagement and long-term market entry.

Role

Advising the client on business model validation, risk assessment and strategic decision-making prior to market entry.

Scope of Work

Development and structuring of a business plan

Financial modelling and return analysis

Identification of legal, operational and market risks

Assessment of underlying assumptions and market conditions

Strategic evaluation of investment viability

Key Issues Identified

Projected return on investment indicated an extended and uncertain payback period

Significant operational and regulatory risks were identified

Market conditions suggested limited short-term viability for the proposed model

Outcome

Based on the analysis, the client decided not to proceed with the project. This avoided a potentially high-risk investment and allowed the client to reassess alternative opportunities. Subsequent market developments confirmed the identified risks, with several comparable business models facing significant challenges shortly thereafter.
