Shutdown, Turnaround & Outage Contract Audits
Access Expertise to Validate Billing Accuracy
Shutdowns, turnarounds, and other outages—whether planned or unplanned—are costly, labor-intensive, and critical components of operations. As with any interruption, the primary focus is to get your plant online and operational quickly, safely, and within budget. While it’s simple to ascertain whether a project has been executed on time, it’s not always easy to ensure the charges billed by contractors comply with agreed-upon commercial terms.
