Pre-Shutdown Planning & Scheduling
02. Specialist Capability

Pre-Shutdown Planning & Scheduling

Process plant shutdowns operate on strict critical-path timelines where every single hour lost costs mining operations thousands of dollars in production. Our planning specialists work hand-in-hand with mine maintenance superintendents to formulate detailed minute-by-minute Gantt schedules, staging procedures, and contingency protocols.

Key Technical Deliverables:
Critical-path Gantt chart development
Liner delivery and laydown yard coordination
Tooling pre-inspection and on-site positioning
Shift rotation & fatigue management schedules
Integration with overall plant maintenance workflows

Real "Time" Progress Reporting

During a mill reline execution, continuous visibility is paramount. WRS Company Limited provides live real-time progress reporting to plant managers, tracking bolt knock-in rates, liner removal percentages, installation velocity, and safety audits at regular hourly intervals to ensure the shutdown remains strictly on or ahead of schedule.

Key Technical Deliverables:
Hourly bolt and liner removal/install metrics
Live critical-path variance tracking
Instant shift-handover summaries
Digital photographic milestone logs
Immediate alert protocol for unexpected shell anomalies
