INTRODUCTION
The engineering world is littered with examples of poor shutdowns with massive overruns in costs and problems in resource planning. Performing an effective shutdown is an example of applying many of the principles of good Project Management with some important exceptions, these are outlined in the workshop. This workshop gives you an excellent review of shutdown management from the perspective of someone who has done it from the trenches. There are many case studies of successful shutdown projects to ensure that you get the latest and most up to date information to successfully apply to your next project no matter what position you hold.
WORKSHOP OBJECTIVES
At the end of this workshop participants will be able to:
- Describe typical turnaround management techniques
- Co-ordinate a simple turnaround project from planning to execution and hand-over
- Co-ordinate the personnel in a shutdown and turnaround project
- Apply shutdown best practices and planning
- Build an effective Maintenance project plan for Shutdowns
- Use Critical paths to identify risks and manage these risk effectively
- Plan to meet deadlines and complete Turnaround projects within budget and on time
- Manage resources effectively on a turnaround project
- Develop the personal skills critical to effective Turnaround project management
- Organised and improve performance to create a productive and competent team
- Evaluate and make immediate use of Turnaround Project Management Software packages
