The PREQAST formula

Immediate liquidity and additional profit from existing asset values.

ZG = (L × r) + (P × ΔE) − K

Calculation of the economic effect of asset purchases, reinvestment in digitalisation (IoT, edge) and smart automation.

What is the PREQAST formula?

The PREQAST formula describes how precast concrete plants can release liquidity from existing production facilities, reinvest it specifically in digitalisation and thereby achieve measurable additional profit over the term of a structured purchase and usage agreement.

The focus is not on a single technology or form of financing, but on the intelligent combination of:
Asset values + continued operation + upgrade package + industrial data intelligence.

L – Liquidity released from existing assets

Many precast concrete plants have high-quality production equipment such as moulds, tilting tables, concrete distributors, circulation systems, batching plants or reinforcement machines, which are often depreciated in the balance sheet but still have a high market value in economic terms.

These assets are monetised through a structured PREQAST purchase and continued operation model.
The plant gains immediate liquidity – without any change in production at the site.

r – Return on targeted reinvestment

Part of the freed-up liquidity is specifically invested in digitalisation and smart automation.
Not as a large-scale project, but in clearly defined, economically sensible steps:
✅ IoT sensors on machines and moulds
✅ Edge computers for local data processing
✅ Dashboards for production and process overview
✅ AI-supported evaluations for stability and efficiency

This reinvestment generates a measurable return on the previously tied-up capital.

P – Production value as an economic lever

The annual production value of the precast concrete plant forms the basis for the effect of digitalisation.
Even small increases in efficiency have an immediate economic impact when production volumes are high.

ΔE – Efficiency gains through IoT, edge computing and AI

The availability of data from machines, moulds and processes results in:
✅ fewer downtimes
✅ more stable processes
✅ better planning
✅ transparent maintenance and usage data

The increase in efficiency is deliberately moderate and realistic – not as a promise, but as a controllable effect.

K – Additional costs transparently taken into account

The PREQAST formula openly calculates additional costs, in particular:

  • Monthly usage rate (continued operation of the system)
  • Retrofit, IoT, edge and software costs (upgrade package)
  • Project-related expenses for implementation, integration and operation

The PREQAST formula is not a marketing promise, but a calculation model that clearly compares benefits and costs.

The result: measurable additional profit

The PREQAST formula shows how the combination of:

Asset values + financing + digitalisation + industrial data intelligence

can generate sustainable additional profit (ZG) over the term of the usage agreement.
Not through radical upheavals, but through controlled, economically viable steps.

PREQAST – a system instead of individual measures

PREQAST does not sell pure financing or isolated technology.
PREQAST combines existing asset values with modern digitalisation to create a system that:
✅ Releases liquidity
✅ Reduces risks
✅ Stabilises processes
✅ Makes economic impact calculable

The increase in efficiency is deliberately moderate and realistic – not as a promise, but as a controllable effect.

 

The legal purchase of the production facilities is carried out by selected leasing and financing partners. PREQAST takes care of structuring, technical evaluation, digitisation and ongoing support.
