Expertise, specialist equipment & experienced installation teams
Planning and delivering industrial relocation projects
Machine transportation, industrial installations and production relocations are complex projects that come with a range of risks. So you should consider the production areas concerned as holistically as possible when making preparations. The effects of the planned relocation on your company's entire production process and supply chains must be taken into account. State-of-the-art production technology is often extremely sensitive and must therefore be transported with care.
In order to successfully relocate production equipment, it is essential for planning to give serious consideration to all the relevant variables. Systematic documentation of production lines helps to minimize risks and develop strategic solutions for different scenarios. This requires technical expertise, experienced project managers and installation teams, and good forward planning.
Structured approach
Expertise in industrial production relocation
In highly technical industrial environments and complex production plants, general experience with projects is usually not enough. A structured approach, comprehensive knowledge of specialized technical equipment and well-thought-out processes are essential to ensure that relocation projects for production equipment deliver outstanding quality, efficiency and cost-effectiveness. In order to ensure that production lines are relocated efficiently and safely, it is wise to involve experienced installation and transportation specialists.
Relocation of production requires client and contractor to be clear about whose responsibilities are whose. The industrial services provider’s project manager, project planning team and relocation team, both at the starting location and the target location, should be clearly identified for the customer. Competencies, interfaces and authorizations must be clearly defined in order to ensure cooperation between companies and installation service providers, machine manufacturers and transport companies runs smoothly.
Ask the right questions
SCHOLPP checklist
Production companies expect industrial service provider teams to ensure they incur no material damage or financial disadvantage. The primary aim is to keep machine downtimes to a minimum and get production back up and running as quickly as possible. For this reason, it is important to weigh up all the site factors and relocation risks in advance. To ensure a successful outcome, any production relocation should be based on clear strategic decisions. When you begin technical and organizational preparations to relocate machines, systems or entire plants, there is a long list of issues to consider.
The SCHOLPP production relocation and industrial installation checklist helps you ask the right strategic questions when preparing industrial relocation projects, to ensure they deliver to a professional standard.
