SMSi Supervision Plus App Release on Google Play

/in /by

SMSi Supervision Plus is an addition to SMSi system. It brings all your shutdowns, turnarounds, and projects within the SMSi system into the palm of your hand.

Shutdown supervisors can use the App to update work progress, capture delays, register incidents, and add their comments.

The App helps supervisors to be more productive. They remain in the field and submit their updates via App. No need to walk or drive back to the office to provide updates anymore! No risk of losing data because it was written on a torn piece of paper!

Ultimately, STO Management gains further visibility and control over the execution of the shutdowns, turnarounds, or projects.

Here is what you will love about this App:

  • Access to all shutdowns, outages, and projects in your App
  • Go through the list of STOs to quickly select your shutdown
  • Go through your bucket of work, open your first job, and start update progress
  • Select delays from a pull-down menu as they occur
  • Register any incidents or injuries as they occur in the field
  • Add notes and easily share them with your teams
  • It’s that simple! And now STO teams will have visibility over progress … thanks to you!

Financial Perspective of Plant Shutdowns

Financial Perspective of Shutdowns

Miners are well aware of the importance of meeting annual forecasts and the impact on organisational value to its owners. Backlog maintenance and shutdown overruns are not uncommon problems for asset management teams. Building buffer stocks provides some protection against unplanned and planned downtime as the primary risk mitigation. While the supply chain constraint remains within the organisation’s processes, increasing plant availability becomes crucial to moving the constraint externally to customer demand where the journey continues.

No one likes surprises

As shutdown management practices evolve, organisations can leverage mobile-enabled digital platforms which encourage standardisation, interface with existing organisation systems and provide the level of visibility at the earliest possible timing of problems and opportunities to close gaps.

SMSi is a digital platform that provides the necessary transformation to both end-to-end shutdown process and how data is efficiently captured and effectively used. The cloud-based software has been designed by shutdown professionals extensively involved in managing and importantly improving shutdown performance.

The decision support tool gives shutdown managers the earliest visibility of how well the teams are tracking to be prepared for the shut as well as any delay triggering events as they are first identified by the shutdown teams on the ground.
