Many of our customers come to us for honest advice on their process ideas. We approach each enquiry with a realistic thought process to best support our customers. This is typically around the process itself where all parts of the process must be considered including throughput, by products and their disposal, required site services, CIP requirements, logistics challenges, site layouts etc.
As with any project, cost is always a factor. We can provide estimated running costs for our plants which can feed in to customer payback analysis.
Dependent upon the project, there is a wide arrange of documentation produced to support each phase of the project. During initial designs, this is usually;
Once the project is underway, further documentation can be supplied:
All of this documentation builds a comprehensive design package to ensure that all elements of the process are well considered leading to a solution that works from day one. We work closely with our customers throughout the process to ensure they are well informed and involved in all aspects throughout the project.
We have good relationships with a number of vendors that supply equipment from stainless fasteners to whole milk separators. We are able to supply many types of valving, pumps, instrumentation, automation hardware, electrical hardware and standalone items to best match with what our customer requires.
We have recently become ISO 9001 and ISO 45001 accredited, showing our dedication to Quality and Health and Safety. We have a number of internal systems in place to ensure that we deliver the same, high quality service for every customer.
For all of our on site work we produce job specific Risk Assessment and Method Statements. We follow all on site requirements for site inductions, required insurance levels, recognised engineering body memberships etc. Whilst on site, we work under the required permits.
During site works, we will often have site presence alongside our subcontractor teams. This will be throughout the installation phase and into the commissioning phase. Once the plant is up and running, we will maintain a site presence do carry out plant checks, operator training, performance monitoring and generally provide support to the customer.
For almost any project, downtime is necessary to bring the new equipment online. This can be handled in various ways to suit the customer. For some customers, a block shutdown works best where all of the cut in work can be completed in one go. For others, regular smaller windows can be made available where smaller pieces of work can be completed. Any downtime comes at a cost so we work closely with the customer to provide a strategy to suit their requirements.
For some projects, a phased cutover can also be an option. This is where smaller sections of the larger installation can be bought online at a time. This gives a more progressive changeover and allows time for commissioning and testing of each section in isolation.
With any new equipment, an agreed commissioning plan with specific milestones and targets is critical. It provides a regimented approach to checking all aspects of an installation. Once the new equipment is online, validation of it’s performance insures that it achieves everything expected of it by the customer.
Operator training of any new equipment is critical to achieving a stable, well performing machine. We like to spend as much time as possible with operators to make sure they understand how to correctly operate and look after the equipment. We can provide group operator training, on the job training and operator manuals.
On completion of installation of a project, we issue a handover pack of documentation to the customer. This can include:
