From Pause to Progress:
Transforming Shutdowns, Turnarounds & Outages into Strategic Wins
The effective management of Shutdowns, Turnarounds and Outages (STOs) is essential for maintaining operational efficiency and financial stability. However, the costs and disruptions associated with pausing operations can be significant. Striking the right balance between ensuring operational excellence and minimizing downtime requires a strategic approach to STO planning.
What if you could transform STOs from costly pauses into powerful catalysts for progress?
In this session, you’ll learn how organizations are leveraging enterprise planning strategies to optimize STO execution—reducing risk, improving forecasting, and aligning budgets with long-term operational goals. We’ll break down how you can move beyond reactive shutdown management and adopt a proactive, data-driven approach that improves coordination, enhances resource efficiency, and ensures every STO event contributes to business growth.
Here’s what you’ll gain by attending this session:
- Maximize Efficiency – Learn how centralizing STO planning across facilities improves coordination and cost control.
- Enhance Forecasting – See how leveraging historical data and conceptual estimating leads to more accurate long-term budgeting.
- Optimize Resources – Align STO budgets with capital and operational expenditures to minimize waste and extend asset life.
- Mitigate Risk – Gain real-time insights that help you prevent budget overruns, delays, and resource shortages.
