The potential cost of upgrading a medicine room to a dispensary, as required by the Pharmacy Act for a pharmacist's assistant to work in, was determined from a case study of a facility within the same district where the research was conducted, and sourced from the non-governmental organization (NGO) which paid for the upgrade.
However, in the case of a single facility and relative short time horizon this task becomes feasible.
In the case of a textile facility, all accounted inputs and outputs, which are present in these processes, can be divided into three main categories: resources (water and materials), energy and waste.
During the Ebola virus epidemic 2014-15, the case of a health facility where two doctors were contaminated was investigated to determine the reality of facts and circumstances that led to the case happening, in order to determine the causes and contributing factors to ultimately propose corrective actions.

Power is supplied from Longyearbyen Power Station, In case of a power outage, the facility is equipped with an uninterruptible power supply and has a standby generator capable of supplying power for two weeks.
The solution, which can be represented as functions of the location of the new facility, is obtained by analytical resolution of a system of equations in the case of one facility in the market or by polynomial approximation in the case of multiple facilities.
