Start-up Process
Services to establish an efficient and effective start-up
process include preparation in three general categories:
- Equipment: commissioning so equipment will function
properly
- Business process: defining and designing processes
such as operating procedures
- People: training and organization functionality,
roles, and responsibilities
|
Results of an effective start-up include quickly attaining
excellent performance levels, with capable, enthusiastic
employees. The start-up curve is steeper and non-value
activity is avoided in the process.
Proper planning and preparation are critical for an
effective start-up. Commissioning activities, training
and development of business processes are integrated
into a complete start-up process in order to achieve
initial production success. Using this process, the organization
also establishes a culture that continues to develop
capabilities and improve performance on an ongoing basis.
