Large-Scale Project Execution

Major multimillion-dollar greenfield and brownfield projects can be daunting, especially when in-house resources are already overwhelmed handling daily operational tasks and facing budget and scheduling constraints. Facility owners often defer much of the engineering to equipment suppliers and / or engineering, procurement, construction (EPC) firms, whose focus tends to be on the much larger civil, design, mechanical, electrical and structural scope of the project and not so much on automation and controls.

Conflicts of interest can arise if the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of your automation system also designs it. New systems may not interface with existing legacy equipment or don’t communicate properly with field devices. These incompatibility issues can result in changes being made later in the project, adding significant costs and delays. Any large project requires an enormous amount of work, and the risks can be high without the right team of experts and proper planning.

• How do you know who is the best partner to contribute to your project success?
• How do you determine who does what and who can collaborate and coordinate with all the stakeholders?
• Who will help interface your control systems to the field devices with the least interruption, downtime and expense?
• Who truly understands your business and has the bandwidth and domain expertise to effectively and efficiently keep operations optimized?
