Decided we needed to: • Become functionally excellent in project execution. • Be one with the business. • Integrated engineering into the business: • Achieved better front-end loading definition. • Reduced redundancy. • Engineering stays current with business conditions and drivers.

  5. Align with Contractor • Integrated contractor into engineering • Developed core competencies. • Eliminated redundancies. • Leveraged resources. • Shared systems. • Built stronger relationships inclusive decision making.

  6. Global Standardization Enabled us to standardize: • Engineering and design • Developing standard packages • Global package champions • Equipment specs • Design packages (bid documents) • Construction strategy • Operating procedures • Maintenance procedures • Environmental issues • People management issues

  7. Centralize Technology • Maintain quality in technology. • Have consistency in technology. • Have consistent end product. • Project technologist centrally located. • Manage change.

  8. Maintaining Global Competitiveness • Replication (PDMS) • More competitive equipment bidding • Global procurement (qualifying suppliers) • Developing better construction bid package • Negotiate better lump sum competitive bids • Benchmark against global competitors • Continual step change improvements
