Don't Let Separate Engineering, Procurement and Construction Services Delay Your
Capital Projects
With the continued downsizing of major corporations,
fewer companies can afford to engineer, procure and then construct new projects in-house.
Negotiated engineering services and competitive bidding construction projects is time
consuming, and can lead to project startup delays, extended completion dates and
postponement of revenue generation.
The need for companies to outsource all or part of such projects prompted the startup of
Master Corporation back in 1998. Master Corporation can provide turnkey solutions from
project conceptualization through design, engineering, procurement, construction and
startup. The Master Corporation staff has designed and completed many types of projects
including treating, metering and production facilities, compressor and pump stations as
well as refinery and petrochemical unit modifications and additions. Master Corporation
also provides all types of design and drafting services, utilizing state-of-the-art
equipment and software.
The advantages of outsourcing turnkey (engineering, procurement and construction) projects
to a single company are:
-
Responsibility is clear. Finger pointing
between engineering and construction firms is eliminated. With all services provided by
one company, there is a smooth flow from design through procurement to construction
-
Cost savings are realized. Obtaining separate
proposals for engineering and construction services greatly increases the owner-provided
man-hours spent preparing bid packages and evaluating proposals. Other costs associated
with the bid process, such as multiple document preparation and site investigations may
also be eliminated.
-
A turnkey project can save a great deal of time.
Drawings to support the construction effort can be developed as required. For example, as
foundation plans are completed, that phase of construction can begin. Pping and
electrical drawings can be developed as the foundation work progresses instead of waiting
for the entire design to be completed before commencing work. Planning your work in this
fashion can accelerate the completion of a project by weeks or months.
The sooner
the project is finished, the sooner our clients can realize increased revenues.
