Services FAQ
What are typical timelines for an engineering or optimization project?
Smaller audits and investigations typically run for 2–6 weeks, while full design and EPCM projects can range from 3–12 months depending on scope, data availability and shutdown windows.
What deliverables can we expect at each project stage?
We provide clear written findings, quantified opportunity ranges, design documentation, simulations where applicable, implementation plans and commissioning reports with measured performance.
What data do you require to start?
We begin with available drawings, production reports, utility consumption data and existing control philosophies, then define any additional instrumentation or logging needed for the engagement.
How do you structure pilots or trials?
We agree trial boundaries, success metrics, monitoring periods and reporting frequency up front, ensuring that operational teams are part of the process and that outcomes are measurable.
How is handover and ongoing support handled?
We structure a formal handover including training, documentation and performance baselines, with the option for ongoing monitoring, reporting and refinement support.
What are the typical project phases?
Our work typically moves through pre-feasibility, feasibility, detailed design, implementation, commissioning and post-implementation monitoring with defined gates at each step.
