MY TARGETS WHEN I JOINT NOMAC:

I entered in NOMAC as project engineer/ Maintenance Manager, while the complex was at primary commissioning stage. I defined following targets for the successful take over and efficient O&M of the complex in future;
• To get complete know how regarding all the contractual obligations with EPC, Owner and subcontractors.
• To build professional teams in all maintenance disciplines for proceeding to have a complete knowledge of future requirements for the successful take over and O&M of the complex.
• To have a careful review of all the installations of the complex and in time intimation to the related EPC for corrections according to the contract.
• To evaluate the spare parts requirements in future for successful O&M.
• To review the performance of the plant according to the committed standards and parameters.
• To defined the strategies for the best usage of maintenance team during takeover of the complex.
• To defined the strategies how the warranty issues have to be evaluated and addressed to EPC & Owner.
• To make maintenances strategies after taking over the complex.
• To plan for the continuous up gradation in maintenance performance by trainings, incentives, share of knowledge and experience, thorough review of the O&M manuals, accurate and in time spare parts evaluation and purchase, efficient implementation of maintenance controller ( SAP).
• How to give an effective coordination to other working parties on the complex like operations, planning, HSE.
ACHIEVEMENTS:
• Steadied and achieved the contract details by every angle for proper takeover of the complex and as a result I feel comfortable at the stage where warranty period is over.
• I have built a professional and accurate maintenance team which is performing well with the less manpower.
• I have reviewed the complex installations and intimated to the EPC for additions or replacements i-e, redundant HSU for the LP steam controls to the Dump condensers.
• I have delivered the guide lines to the maintenance crew with proper coordination of stores for an appropriate inventory level of spares.
• The available maintenance team was distributed in a well-mannered shape for covering all the operational areas of the complex during commissioning and plant taking over phase of the complex.
• I have managed the warranty issues by introducing a system where all the parties like EPC, consultant, NOMAC planning, owner remained well aware of all the warranty issues. Several hundred warranty issues were resolved by the EPC.
• I have successfully introduced the maintenance strategies for Day to day, shutdown, scheduled, Preventive, and CBM maintenance programs.
• I have assessed the training requirements for the maintenance crew to upgrade the skills and advised accordingly to the training officer. It has given good results, indeed.
