Plexal Group has a checkpoint methodology that ensures financial and other business risks for all parties are minimised.


Our independence ensures that the appropriate technology and design is applied to deliver the desired business outcomes.


Phase 1: Opportunity

Scope	A multidiscipline assessment of the current plant performance and operational costs against business objectives.
Outcome	Identification of opportunities to improve the business with a high level business case.
Benefits	Low cost study that presents the business with either a justification to proceed with further analysis work or the confidence to do nothing.

Phase 2: Select

Scope	A multidiscipline analysis of options to realise the opportunities identified in Phase 1.
Outcome	High level schedule and budget. Recommendation of the preferred option with supporting business case.
Benefits	Low cost conceptual design that presents the business with a justification to proceed into capital expenditure, with expected benefits quantified.

Phase 3: Basis

Scope	To move the preferred option to an approved Basis of Design and Scope of Work.
Outcome	Detailed Schedule and Budget for the implementation. Reconfirmation of the business case.
Benefits	Moderate cost to ensure the economics are sound and the scope sufficiently defined before committing to major capital expenditure. Sufficient detail to go to competitive tender if desired.

Phase 4: Implement

Scope	Detailed engineering, procurement, construction management, commissioning and handover.
Outcome	Implemented and online. Operations trained and maintaining modified system(s).
Benefits	Business case justification realised.

It is a frequent occurrence after an upgrade that further improvements are identified due to greater knowledge of the process performance. Our Support model addresses these opportunities.
