SERVICES

Performance in any industry does not come by accident: it must be built, sustained and sometimes restored.

Be it a project of a new plant construction or lack of performance of the existing operations we provide various types of services 

Project management
New Plant Construction

New plant construction is a complex process which should include carefull planning, modeling, engineering, negotiations with multiple suppliers, personnel training, commissioning. Sometimes companies lack of expertise and global view that's why outsorcing is a way to successful project realisation. We will take care of necessary steps, from initial ideas to commissioning. For many years we use proven over time methodology of Project Management that includes following stages:

 

Project definition- business case creation “what are we up to and do we have a solid business case supporting the project?” This critical phase includes, but is not limited to:

  • Plant sizing

  • Preliminary engineering design (flow diagram/layout/equipment selection)

  • Cost estimate (plant and infrastructure)

  • Revenue streams (sales by product/prices)

  • Financial valuation: NPV/IRR/PayBack

 

Project Planning -turning the concept defined in previous phase into a viable technical solution backed up with realistic cost estimate

 

Project Execution -turning the plan into reality.

 

Project Completion- comisisoning, validation performances versus plan, and hand over to operation

 

Project Evaluation & Transfer

Capitalize experience: what has gone well (or not), what did we learn, structured AAR (After Action Review), what must be kept and recorded for further projects.

Performance improvement

Before granting funds for an investment or construction of a new facility, or in times of capital expenditures limitation, it is often required to demonstrate that the existing facility is operating at its optimum: this is where performance improvement projects usually take place.

  1. The focus areas of performance improvement:

    • Marketing, sales and distribution, including logistics

    • Management and organisation

    • Extraction and mining methods

    • Processing performance and efficiency, including energy efficiency

  2. The method is to scrutinize systematically and methodically all costs and revenues items to improve the financial performance of an operation or a group of operations.

  3. Depending on the scope and targets, those performance improvement projects can range from “limited quick fix actions” to “deep, thorough and fully comprehensive reviews”.

  4. In any case, the outcome is a formalized list of committed actions to be performed by the personnel of the targeted organization and a follow up to actually capture the identified improvements to the bottom line.

     

Maintenance system

To avoid having to spend money purchasing new assets, make sure that you get the best of those you already have

 

Many operations could greatly benefit from simple, hands on, proven in the field tools to develop the maintenance system they need. Not a fancy and complicated system requiring specialized computer software or high profile IT developments. In most cases, simple documents and processes applied by well trained operators can do the job and provide visibility, control, and significant improvements associated with cost savings

Technical Documentation

Be it in paper or electronic form, an adapted documentation greatly participates to the performance of an operation.  

understandable, comprehensive and convenient to search.
