• Leader of all Polymer plants in Tasnee for both Turnaround & Shutdown events from planning to till execution of each event successfully, currently handling PP Line 1 & line 2, HDPE & LDPE plants.
• Responsibly leading the team to achieve planned Shutdown events & Turnaround events timely and monitoring & controlling planning functions from strategy initiation to till close out of each event
• Leader for 8 members of professional planning engineer successfully handled every year 9 No’s major Shutdown & 3 No of Turnaround events for every 2 years
• Annually among our team internal targets were set to reduce TAM budget 2-4 % by Screening & strongly challenging each equipment carefully by studying with core team about it function & its nature of demand to run a production without any major interruption.
• Enabling team knowledge by consenting and working together in each and every challenges together in order to meet the phase wise time line for ever events and as of now our team successfully achieved & plant started running to production rated capacity successfully.
• Leading the team by absorbing higher management annualize improvement plan for each plant & replicate those direction & create the specific plan for down the level planning team in order to achieve overall corporate year development plan targets
• Major achievements done so far in Tasnee Corporate as a planning Leader, Higher management expecting me to eliminate the Turnaround events to SD events practiced for last 15 years in PP plant
 Toward this goal, started on this effort in 2023 year beginning & successfully accomplished in year 2025 in PPTAM will last TAM events for plant.
 Method developed as per specific plant team culture & plant running history, I have starting from studying each & every PM plan of the plant with Technical core competency team, Applied Challenging process on every single PMs and technically convenience to move it to Normal or Shutdown
 Identify the PP plant shutdown driver & optimize the critical path duration to 50% compared to last PPTAM events (Reason to achieve such huge reduction was possible due to one of Tasnee higher management initiative action on Capital spare strategy give me that leverage).
 Conducted many meeting with Higher management both in operation & maintenance upto GM level & conveyed potentials benefits on my action, Strategically moved the recommendation to Steering committee with upcoming long-standing benefits & value addition on how this will increase production capacity was detailed & final ideas were implanted to their minds of all managements with support my GM.
• Implement strong monitoring & regulatory methods to control the cost with support of planning team as well as with available system in place, ( Achieved 47 % Budget reduced in PP plant by direct cost & duration reduction).
• Lead for these successful completion of 9No’s Major SD in PP, HDPE & LDPE polymer plant & 3no Turnaround events completed upto now in year 2025 & honored to be on this Lead role.
• Guided & monitor the planning crew for creating strong & cost-effective packages which we implemented in all the past SD & TAM events successfully ( Close to 750 Package prepared by my team in 1.5 years).
• Developed & Implemented standard SD & TAM milestones chart for each Shutdown & Turnaround events in order to monitoring & track multiple project at same time.
