Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops. The process industry is losing over a billion dollars of profits a year due to poor shutdown and startup results. The majority of shutdown and startup lacked strategic focus and front-end planning. In addition, shutdown & startup teams lacked leadership and were understaffed. The major negative factor is the growing gap between higher shutdown performance expectations and rapidly shrinking qualified resources to manage the shutdowns. As a result, the planning effort not only starts late, but it is also ineffective, and typically does not contribute in the shutdown success. This course is designed to bridge the abovementioned gap. It will provide participants with enough knowledge and skills to understand the purpose of the shutdown, to properly plan and manage the shutdown, and to achieve exponential results of their shutdown project. The course will teach participants how to establish a systematic shutdown management processes and procedures that incorporate the best shutdown practices, planning techniques and execution strategies.
