The success of any plant maintenance or shutdown begins with detailed scoping. Drawing on decades of experience across major industries, we recommend equipment solutions backed by data and insight.
Developing a detailed scope
Our aim during scoping is to work collaboratively with you to develop a thorough understanding of your project. This involves reviewing your previous shutdowns for equipment gaps and inefficiencies, and objectively assessing whether the right type and specification of tools and equipment was achieved.
For example, we understand, by industry, what general tooling and assets are required for a team of 50 electricians, 100 welders and 40 mechanics to execute a three-week project on continuous day and night shifts. We then work with your team to identify the speciality tooling and asset requirements.
This detailed process ensures you commission the optimal mix of equipment and support services and allows any future scheduled works to be completed in the most efficient and cost-effective way to reduce downtime.
Unrivalled experience
While industrial maintenance projects are unique, there are some consistent challenges that our customers face. Having supported countless projects Australia-wide, from scoping through to demobilising, we know how to help you minimise risk and downtime to deliver a safe and efficient shutdown.
We also bring valuable insights and lessons learned to enhance the scoping, planning and delivery of your event.
Good planning can make or break an industrial shutdown. Fortunately, Coates has the range and experience to help you efficiently plan and optimise your event.
Partners in planning
While some customers seek support during the delivery phase of shutdowns, far greater value can be realised by engaging us early. By embedding our experienced shutdown specialists in your project planning team, we can help to shape your approach and enhance your project outcomes.
We do this by combining deep industry experience and lessons learned with data and insights sourced during scoping.
Optimising your event
What is the optimal type and quantity of booms for your project? Can your tool store location enhance tool time? How many bolt tensioning tools are enough? Knowing what works well is half the battle when it comes to planning and optimising industrial events.
Coates can help to optimise your event long before you start on site by reviewing past projects, incorporating modernisation techniques and smart tech solutions, and sharing customer and industry insights.
When it’s time to mobilise your site, Coates has a range of equipment solutions and support services to enhance the delivery of your event. This lets you focus on critical operation tasks, rather than day-to-day equipment needs.
Driving tool time
While shutdowns are necessary for maintaining plant performance, any halt in production – planned or unplanned – comes at a cost. Maximising tool time and delivering planned works within schedule is critical to your success.
To support the delivery of major shutdowns, we provide comprehensive on-site tool store solutions supported by a team of tool store controllers, electricians and mechanics. Meanwhile, SiteIQ, our next-gen proprietary management system, will track and improve the utilisation of tools and equipment to improve tool time efficiency.
Efficient execution
Here’s how we support your team to safely, efficiently and cost-effectively deliver major industrial events:
- Detailed scoping and planning ensures all your equipment needs are catered for
- SiteIQ manages all your tools, equipment, consumables and services in real time
- Experienced tool store controllers continually optimise equipment hire
- Proactive cleaning and maintenance keeps tools in safe working order
During shutdowns and plant maintenance, Coates connects you with frequent and detailed reports on equipment hire and services optimisation. We also provide insights into the effectiveness of your project’s planning and execution.
Optimising current and future projects
We understand the value that information can bring to industrial maintenance events.
Throughout execution, our flexible and intuitive approach to reporting gives you all the information you need, whenever you need it. At event close out, we combine lessons learned with holistic event reporting and review to inform your future planning cycle.
The power of information
Access to deep industry experience and critical tooling and equipment data allows you to:
- Quickly scale up the hire of tools and equipment when event requirements change
- Continuously review tool and equipment utilisation to prevent over-hiring
- Calibrate and maintain only the equipment that you need
- Draw on detailed reporting and lessons learned to inform future planning cycle
