It sounds like an impossible task, doesn’t it? Designing a new maintenance shutdown framework to manage costs across four sites while respecting and addressing each site’s unique needs. But when you truly understand what it takes to achieve maintenance shutdown success, and have a passion for engaging people, it’s more like solving a complex puzzle than facing the impossible. Minset is on site to assess and redesign the maintenance shutdown processes at our client’s processing plants. What’s really interesting is that several plants are very different, requiring distinct maintenance strategies tailored to their age and condition. The Minset team is excited to work with the various groups across head office, functional support teams, and at each site. We’re looking forward to creating cost-effective, relevant, and sustainable strategies to safely and effectively improve performance. If you're dealing with a complex maintenance shutdown and aiming to manage costs, boost performance, or foster stronger teamwork, feel free to contact Andrew Attrill or Anthony Tarsilli. The Minset team is ready to guide you through the process and offer the support you need. #mining #assetmaintenance #businessimprovement #shutdown #maintenancestrategies

Advanced Work Scoping (AWS) is the simple yet powerful process of analysing and planning critical maintenance tasks before initiating work. It helps you improve maintenance responses, manage risks, enhance performance and reduce costs. As part of your AWS planning, encourage your teams to brainstorm how to complete key tasks in less time, without compromising safety or work quality. Some prompters to get you started. Could your teams: • perform pre-works safely while the equipment is still operating to save time? • relocate equipment and / work activity to an improved working environment? • revise task sequencing so work can progress simultaneously in parallel work streams? • use additional personnel or alternate tooling to increase the work rate? • integrate quality assurance tasks into the methodology to limit the risk of delays? We hope those questions help your approach. Happy brainstorming!

Leveraging shutdown maintenance strategies during a downturn is a proactive way to manage costs, increase revenue, and keep assets in good working condition. A client in Southeast Asia sought our expertise to conduct a holistic and independent review of their shutdown efforts, and particularly their preparedness for an upcoming event. Check out how Minset team undertook a shutdown readiness assessment and helped the client identify, implement, and monitor more than 60 actions to help the team address risks and outstanding tasks to deliver a safe, stable, and on time execution. If you’ve got any questions about how Minset can support your maintenance shutdown journey, please reach out to Andrew Attrill for more information.

Safety is always the top priority when organisations are planning their shutdowns. However, do you budget for extra resources to help you manage and investigate safety incidents quickly? Shutdowns are high-pressure events where everyone is pushing extra hard to complete work and that’s when mistakes are more likely to occur. Having extra resources on the ground means you can investigate and identify issues within hours – not days, identify the root cause, and implement fixes on the spot to keep people safe. If you'd like to learn more about organising additional resources for your next maintenance shutdown event, reach out to Andrew Attrill and Anthony Tarsilli. #safetyfirst #shutdown #assetmaintenance #mining #teamwork 

A leading coal seam gas company needed a clearer understanding of its workforce's productivity. Minset realised that by gathering the ‘right’ data from the field, we could fill our client’s knowledge gaps and help them improve. Discover how Minset found out that workers spent 10% of their time on low-value support tasks and 35% on administrative duties.

Data collection is the foundation that underpins great business improvement decisions. While there are many ways to collect data, tool time studies, also called time and motion studies, is one of the most popular and trusted methods. To find out when to use this powerful method, check out our latest article. Tool time studies is a unique way to help you understand what's really going on in the field by getting closer to the work as it's happening. #tooltime #datacollection #businessimprovement #assetmaintenance https://lnkd.in/dgCsNfmG

Many asset owners face the same challenge on large expansion projects – understanding how ready they really are to begin works. This becomes even trickier when construction happens during a maintenance shutdown. It's a double dose of complexity and risk that asset owners are hesitant to tackle. But with the right approach, it’s possible to handle both successfully. We’re partnering with a gold mining client project team to help them do just that. By reviewing their operational readiness, we’re ensuring they can execute construction more efficiently without negatively impacting the shutdown event. If you would like to know more about balancing complexity and improving your operational readiness by working with the maintenance shutdown specialists, please reach out to Andrew Attrill or Anthony Tarsilli. #assetmaintenance #mining #shutdown #businessimprovement #operationalreadiness
