Refurbishing

A refurbishment project is always a serious undertaking, particularly when it involves the future of industrial plant; often a key corporate asset. The current challenging business environment is prompting a growing number of production companies to opt for refurbishment of their equipment in order to achieve their corporate goals. If you’re currently considering outsourcing your refurbishment project, take a look at these key considerations which may help ensure you end up with the right people for the job.

Awareness of current industry trends and priorities

It’s vital that whoever works on your project is clued up on what’s happening in your sector and what’s important in the contemporary production climate. Factors such as the increasing need for energy efficient production, new legislation, sourcing difficulties and technological advances are just some of the considerations which may shape the final look of your refurbishment scheme. Use an agency that can demonstrate plenty of recent work in related fields and are clearly aware of what’s important in your area of expertise.

Solutions which work

Highly theoretical solutions or proposed improvements which rely on extensive resources are often of limited use in an industrial environment. There is little room for error and the need to keep production going at all costs means that any refurbishment needs to be implemented in a way which minimises downtime or delays. Skilled industry professionals are required who can use their extensive experience and expert knowledge to come up with effective techniques which require minimal money and time to implement, as well as giving you the outcomes you want.

Flexible working

You may already have sufficient in-house expertise to complete some parts of the project, but could do with some added assistance on particularly tricky or technically demanding parts. The project itself may be easily implementable, whereas on-going trouble shooting, monitoring and evaluation may be better undertaken by an outside agency. The right consultancy to work with will be one that can fit seamlessly with what’s already in place, complementing those parts of the refurbishment refurbishment

project which others have undertaken whilst adding value through their own contributions. They will also be able to engage flexibly "plugging gaps" in expertise where necessary.

Share your priorities

It’s essential that an external consultancy has a good understanding of what your priorities are and is able to share them for the duration of the refurbishment work. Luckily a consultancy that is staffed by ex-industry professionals will be able to relate to what you’re trying to achieve and provide a dependable, reliable resource that can give you the input you need to get the job done properly, on time and within the agreed budget.

Any refurbishment project can be tough, which is why it’s always so useful when there’s external expertise available that you can rely on. Using a skilled consultancy to ensure that key parts of the enterprise run smoothly can often give the results you need to enable your business to thrive.
