with a DENCO shutdown
assessment, which consists of the facilities current operation
and physical assets. Findings and solutions are communicated in
the form of a report to develop the best shutdown strategies that
will promote the best payback and reliability. We provide the training,
tools (DENCO Shutdown Procedures) and experienced qualified Shutdown

Shutdown
Services
Implementing a world class Plant Shutdown is not an easy task. However,
it is not impossible. It requires energy, leadership, vision, courage,
and commitment. Denco Shutdown Services would like the opportunity
to assist your company in obtaining the "Maintenance of Excellence"
Status. The services Denco Shutdown Services provides can bring
you closer to achieving this status that results in cost savings
and returns on investments.
DENCO can provide
a full line of services for your upcoming shutdowns. We have a proven
system that can eliminate costly delays and escalating contractor
costs. We believe that our customer's objectives must to be met
with accuracy and integrity. The main objective is to provide on
time and on budget shutdowns with the following services.

Shutdown Procedures
The
Shutdown/Turnaround Procedures Manual is a reference tool that provides
a “best practice” process for industrial maintenance shutdowns.
It defines a clear direction by establishing all necessary components
in a series of steps that are necessary to obtain best possible
results.
Several situations may be encountered that can easily jeopardize
the success of: maximizing resources, preventing unnecessary costs,
retaining control, staying on schedule (avoid deviation of the “critical
path”) and the effectiveness of getting the job done. For these
reasons, it is strongly recommended that a Shutdown Manager who
is trained and competent in plant shutdown management coordinates
the shutdown/turnaround. In order to do this at a company
(non third party) level, tools and training is required.
Denco Shutdown Services
has developed a tried and proven training and shutdown management
process. Our clients as well as project managers within our own
company are successfully utilizing these processes and practices.
Denco Shutdown Services has proven its process time and time again
in all aspects of shutdown management. Detailed
and customized Shutdown/Turnaround Procedures are available and
include all forms that are associated with the shutdown process.
Using a milestone chart with
over 100 items listed, you are sure not to miss anything that will
lead to delays and unidentified work. All activities on the milestone
chart are a full procedure, which is defined in the Denco shutdown
Procedures manual for reference. All procedures have a clear definition
with the purpose, person or department responsible, time prior to
or after each shutdown.

Training in Shutdown/Turnaround Management Fundamentals
Training provided by DENCO is designed to increase your team's
understanding of the fundamentals and best planning practices. DENCO
offers training specific to shutdown planning and all other aspects
of industrial maintenance practices.
Shutdown Operation Assessment
Our starting
point is to assess the current "snap shot" of the facilities
maintenance planning operational process. The final report produced
by this assessment provides sound solutions and recommendations
that will assist your company in developing a successful shutdown.
The report focuses on key points of the organizational process to
maximize your team's ability to communicate specific activities
in the planning process.

Shutdown Physical Asset Assessment
With the use
of an in depth physical asset assessment, we can determine critical
equipment. This process unveils the "Bad
Actors" that should be inspected for maximizing reliability
and reducing costs that are associated with breakdowns during critical
production time.

Shutdown Restock Assessment
Utilizing your
current parts inventory we can also review the re-ordering point
and "just in time" method. This can substantially reduce
inventory material re-ordering costs. This can be the start of your Inventory
Reduction Process.

Shutdown Facilitation
Plant
Shutdown Management is a very skills-orientated and specialized
occupation. It requires extensive experience in managing all information
and activities prior to, during and after the shutdown. In order
to save time and lost production a process is required.
Our
shutdown managers will assist your organization
in reaching your goals and objectives through experience and knowledge.
We have experienced professionals ready to provide world-class results
through our procedures and training.

Coordination and Supervision
DENCO provides
area-specific or trade-specific coordination and supervision for
your next shutdowns. Organizations with limited internal resources
have used our specialists to coordinate mechanical crews, scaffolding,
wash and vacuum trucks, chemical washing equipment, schedule compliance
Q/A, and labourer crews. All of our coordinators have to meet Denco's
stringent qualification guidelines and follow a specific process
which is customized for each organization. We will deliver with
our
mission statement in mind.

Final Reporting
All of our
customers are provided with a final report that covers the four
phases of the shutdown. Reported items include costs, backlog analysis,
schedule compliance and more. Our shutdown managers will present
your company with an improvement plan that contains solid and proven
recommendations focused on a continuous improvement philosophy.
