Project challenges
The project involved the simultaneous implementation of greenfield and brownfield activities at an existing production site. It involved preparing new production lines, transferring processes, cooperating with an international engineering team, as well as coordinating many subcontractors and suppliers. The client decided to strengthen its team with experienced project managers and experts who brought practical experience in factory start-ups and supported both operational streams and areas related to investment planning and cost control.
Complexity of the greenfield and brownfield projects
parallel execution of construction, installation, technological and organisational works in an operating production environment.
International project environment
cooperation with a global engineering and design team, requiring consistent communication, standards and reporting.
Coordination of many stakeholders
the necessity to integrate the expectations of functional departments, suppliers, contractors and the local plant team.
Targets set
Effective carrying out of the greenfield and brownfield projects
support for the expansion and launch of new production capacity at the existing location.
Relocating and launch of production
ensuring the smooth transfer of production processes and the start of serial production of heat pumps.
Strengthening the project team
experienced Project Managers with practical experience in factory start-ups joined the international engineering team.
Time, costs and quality control
managing subprojects in a manner that ensures the achievement of time, budget and quality objectives.
Solutions implemented
Leading subprojects within an international team
supporting the project manager in planning, supervising and reporting on selected parts of the investment, using a structured project approach.
Management of suppliers and contractors
ongoing coordination of contractors’ work on site, supervision of schedules, risk analysis and compliance of activities with project objectives.
Close cooperation with functional departments
keeping in touch with local production, maintenance, logistics, finance and health and safety teams to ensure that new technological and organisational solutions meet their needs.
