What Are Turnaround Planning Services?
Turnaround Planning Services are specialized project management activities designed to optimize the planning, execution and completion of turnaround projects. These intensive maintenance operations are commonly undertaken in industrial settings such as refineries, chemical plants or manufacturing facilities. The goal of these services is to minimize downtime and maximize efficiency, ensuring that operations resume as swiftly and safely as possible. Effective turnaround management is critical because, in industrial operations, every minute of downtime translates into major financial impact. As you’ve heard it said: time is money.
