Shutdowns, Turnarounds, and Outages Seminar

A shutdown, turnaround, or outage can be the biggest and most complicated demand on maintenance resources. Modern project management methods can enable a maintenance professional identify, plan, staff and coordinate the effort of hundreds of workers and their support equipment while minimizing downtime and costs. A review and demonstration of current project management software makes this seminar especially relevant for today's planner, outage, or turnaround manager.
