OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE AUDIT

Once a facility has passed its acceptance test, it begins operation and generates the revenues needed to pay lenders.  To remain profitable, however, it must continue running smoothly and efficiently.  For this to happen, effective operating and maintenance procedures are essential.

As an independent engineer, we will help the client review project operations regularly.  We examine operating and maintenance data from site records, interview plant operations and submit reports to investors.  We also prepare detailed annual reports, highlighting 12 months of operation and maintenance and significant maintenance milestone for the coming year.  At a minimum, these reports cover:

·
    Electricity and steam  sales revenues
·    Fuel costs
·    Cost of consumables, such as water and chemicals
·    Waste disposal costs, as appropriate
·    Planned staffing levels and costs
·    Maintenance costs and activities
·    Indirect costs (such as taxes and insurance)
·    Manufacturer’s maintenance recommendations compared with actual practice
·    Shutdowns, both planned and unplanned
·    Staff training programs
·    Performance compared with guarantees
·    Future maintenance plans
