§    Develop maintenance standards according with supplier specifications, plants operation characteristics and safety procedures. Establish standard tasks, related times and costs and measure deviations and rework to follow and improve outage service results. Shorten the length of each maintenance, by performing priority tasks, to enlarge periods between maintenance and reduce costs, following safety standards defined in master plan.
§    Contractors management, evaluation, qualification and selection. Annual average of 180 contractor workers.
§    Develop and manage annual budget according with the goals of the Generation Business Unit.
§    Develop Business Plan for the Outage Unit with goals and targets for one year and forecasting for tree years, following the international standards and adding best practices identified from benchmarking.

Results:
The unit must focus in: select standard activities develop standard times and costs, reengineer the planning unit and reinforced skills of programmers, continuous watching of the budget development, give more responsibility to project leaders, more interaction between planning and execution team, keep informed the outage team of all goal and targets, implantation the Loss Control Management Program (for safety), train a group of workers in combustion turbine maintenance, anticipate the power plant manager needs and maintain then informed of all standard and additional costs.
§    The outage unit start to work process oriented way (instead functional) then the resources were effectively distributed .
§    Develop skills in combustion turbine maintenance so the unit assigned under responsibility to perform outage to gas turbines power plants OAM (500MW, gas turbine simple cycle) plant and IPP Cardon ( 300MW IPP that supplies steam and power to the biggest refinery in Venezuela)
§    Were found that more than forty percent of the outage costs were not standard, instead additional activities that the plant personal ask for (by cost allocation management strategy and continuous support to plant managers, we shortened this value to nearly twenty percent).
§    The standard time delay reached one (1) day per each 365 programmed working days ( the programmed working days were between 400 to 600 per year, that means two or more outages or major repair at the same time).
§    The real costs deviation were fixed around 10% of the planed costs.
§    The overtime hours reduced from 28.000 to 9.000 per year.

The biggest combustion power plant in Venezuela and the most modern one, and the only in EDC system with black start devices. It starts commercial operation in 1993, build to replace an old combustion turbine power plant located in the same place.
As I received the plant in the initial phase of operation I was responsible of developing O&M strategic, negotiate with the suppliers the conditions to receive the equipment and follow the guaranty terms, spare parts purchase and financial specs related to a power plant start up and commercial operation.
Is important to point out that from the start of the project, EDC was on the idea to operate OAM plant like a competitive IPP, to be prepared for a future non regulated market and the principal mission under the plant manager responsibility was to approach these goal, we must make benchmarking with best in class and design a business plan with specific targets and goals put in practice by involving the workers.
Principal activities and responsibilities:
§    Plant start up the and final adjustments for commercial operation.
§    Operation, maintenance, technical support and administration of the plant.
§    Develop budget of expenses and investment.
§    Negotiation, selection and qualification of the suppliers and contractors.
§    Assign goals and targets for costs, efficiency and performance (EAF, FOR; EFOR, NCF, Heat Rate, MW/Workers, Budget execution, etc).
§    Operators training and develop to operate peak technology of gas turbines.
§    Reengineer old organization for new requirements.
§    Purchase spare parts, negotiation and contraction of gas and fuel oil.
§    Keep plant operation under the government legislation and in accordance with labor and environmental regulations.

Results:
§    After three years of commercial operation the overall performance of the plant reached very near to the best in class IPP's (EAF=98%, EFOR=3%, NCF=65% and MW/ worker= 13,5).
§    Train and develop skills of the workers for new technology so the operators could handle the plant in a short period of time from initial start up and run the plant with good performance.
§    Down size from 78 employees to 38, focusing in critical process in the plant and the employees that would better fit in the process. Outplace workers in areas of the company in agreement with their skills and knowledge. In this particular issue was relevant the level of involvement of the workers. Develop multifunctional workers ( for example: operators could perform maintenance and vice versa), was also very important to downsize.
§    Perform a lifetime (20 years) outage plan according with supplier specifications and the site operation, include estimated expenses and investment in components repair, services and spare parts .
§    Develop and implementation a Loss control program according with international standards and Country regulations. This program is based upon 20 basic elements, from ISO 9001, to reduce costs and risks by reducing incidents and accidents to a workers and/or machinery, detection of sub-standards conditions, keep safety records, training workers in safety procedures, avoid impact to environment keeping in control emissions, effluents and noise levels.
§    Develop a three years Business Plan focus in compete in deregulated environment, based on benchmarking , performed with "best in class".
§    Savings for 2.100.000 US $ were obtained by a strong and very good technical support, covered by the guaranty.
