In every business, there’s an element of the unexpected. Regulations change, technology advances at an accelerated pace, competition increases, there’s pressure to do more with less – and the list grows year by year. So when it comes to planning ahead and managing risk, what makes the difference between success and failure?
Start with the right framework.
Using the SPMC Integrated Framework, our consultants integrate processes, technology, governance, mindsets and behaviors, culture and capabilities to mitigate risk and create safer, more productive work environments. We can help you improve your business performance by protecting, creating and extracting more value from all of your assets.
In partnership with our clients, we develop tailored, outcome-based solutions that specifically address your risk landscape. We also identify critical, “quick-win” opportunities for risk reduction so you can start seeing immediate results.
To ensure lasting, continuous organizational progress, we prioritize three areas of improvement:
Today, companies are under increasing pressure to improve their operational performance and stay ahead of rising operational challenges, customer demands and global competition. While it may be tempting to focus on a more narrow approach to operational improvements, these fragmented initiatives rarely succeed long-term and can end up wasting valuable time and resources.
As companies try to increase operational efficiency and productivity, how can they ensure they have the right near and long-term plan in place to optimize performance while building resilience and flexibility?
Unleash your full potential.
Addressing the operational pressures companies face requires a targeted, holistic approach. Through the SELAMINA Integrated Framework, our seasoned consultants use their world-class, real-world experience to design an integrated and customized plan that takes your current operational reality fully into account.
Working closely with clients, we start by listening to and analyzing your entire organization to identify critical operational objectives, links, and gaps and better understand and clarify your opportunities for growth. This analysis allows us to help you better embed a best-in-class operation/production structure that addresses your challenges with minimal disruption to current operations. We then go a step further to address and improve the skills, management and cultural shifts that are necessary to drive lasting success in your organization.
Ultimately, our goal is to work with you throughout every stage so that your entire workforce is empowered and equipped to sustain changes. And clients continuously improve upon their gains for years to come.
Here’s what you can expect when you work with SPMC:
Through effective communication and the integration of varied services, we offer innovative engineering and project management support from conceptual feasibility through detailed design, procurement and construction management, commissioning, start-up, operation and maintenance. Here is an overview of our service offerings:
At SPMC, our diverse expertise includes:
You need to start with a plan for the whole project. Before doing anything else, you need to think about all of the work that you will contract out for your project. You will want to plan for any purchases and acquisitions. Here’s where you take a close look at your needs to be sure that contracting is necessary. You figure out what kinds of contracts make sense for your project, and you try to define all of the parts of the project that will be contracted out.
Contract planning is where you plan out each individual contract for the project work. You work out how you’ll manage the contract, what metrics it will need to meet to be considered successful, how you’ll pick a seller, and how you’ll administer the contract once the work is happening. Here is what SPMC group skill and professionalism saves you a lot, both in reliability, cost and time and needs.
The procurement management plan details how the procurement process will be managed. It includes the following information:
The procurement management plan, like all other management plans, becomes a subsidiary of the project management plan. Some tools and techniques you may use during the procurement planning stage include make-or-buy analysis and definition of the contract type.
Our Construction Managers and Supervisors also work closely with our design teams during engineering to ensure that our projects are highly constructible. Too often projects are designed with little or no consideration for construction; this lack of foresight is one of the main contributors to project cost overruns experienced in industry today. One of the hallmarks of a SPMC project is a seamless transition from engineering to construction, with overruns and rework significantly lower than the industry average.
Some of the services our construction management group offers are listed below:
