Project Control Traditional Startup withoutProject Control OEE might not even reach the target value due to poor planning during initial phase of the project. Less Effort spent in the initial phase of the project, just delays the effort to later, more crítical and costly phases. Problemsduring the Startup Period will reduce mean value of OEE, which means lost production($) Commissioning costs are typically higher than engineering costs, due to higher rates and overtimes. ($)
Project Control Vertical Startup withProject Control More Effort spent in the initial phase of the project, reduces risks in later phases. Less problemsduring the Startup Period will take OEE to its target in less time.
Project Control Vertical Startup-2nd Project with Project Control and Standardization Standardization will reduce even more the initial effort (i.e. costs) for additional projects
