Start-up

A structured start-up facilitates the orderly transition of a project from the construction phase to the operating phase.

The start-up activities encompass a structured and consequent review of the constructed facility plant with respect to the contractually stipulated scope of operation. This necessitates accurate planning of start-up procedures.

As part of M.M.E.C's integrated improvement system the feedback from the start-up phase and operating phase is evaluated systematically. Pertinent conclusions are integrated into the design and management processes.

M.M.E.C's services at the start of the operating phase include the following:

• Elaboration and coordination of commissioning, takeover and performance test programmers as well as start-up procedures
• Supervision of commissioning, takeover and performance tests as well as start-up
• Supervision and coordination of trial run as well as takeover of plant
• Acceptance test and pertinent certificates
• Elaboration of operating and maintenance manuals
• Staff training
• Technical consultancy after start-up (e.g.: with regard to ongoing operation)
