Operations and Maintenance
Turnaround, Shutdown and Outage Management
Planned turnarounds are hard to manage and unplanned outages even more so, with uncertain scope, hidden work and integrated project activity adding complexity. This course shows how to control scope, manage complexity and deliver work on time and within budget. It combines instruction, guided discussion and practical exercises across the full turnaround lifecycle.
