Continuous Improvement: Continuous improvement is a way to compete and stay ahead of the game. Adopting methodologies to continuously optimize processes can help meet targets. Trouble shooting existing processes using various techniques after analyzing the data and fixing the root cause, pays on its own.
Feasibility Studies: Not everything is known in a project. To avoid surprises and hurdles, projects involve studies at various stages. Studies need to make sense and should be based on relevant and valid data and therefore, gathering valid data is most important aspect of all studies.
General Project Consulting: : Project Management processes and knowledge areas are very well known and followed by almost all project managers. However, each project is unique in nature and therefore developing project strategies when initiating a project becomes very important i.e each project has its own implementation or launch strategy.
R&D and New Product Development: When it comes to R&D, many companies rely on their own resources to safeguard the intellectual property. However, there are still some area were a third party consultancy is required e.g design of experiments, piloting, testing of new products in lab and field.
Management Systems: “Knowledge Management System” is something that companies are becoming increasingly aware of, specially in a high turn-over environment. Protecting and safe keeping knowledge, is as important as protecting and safe keeping physical assets. “Portfolio Management System” is important for managing and monitoring group of projects. A well designed and managed “Technical Intelligence System” also keeps you well informed about what others are doing in the field. “Energy Management System ” is also very crucial that involves new techniques to find out energy losses.
Energy Sector: Energy transition from fossil fuel-based energy systems to more cleaner and efficient options continue to be a priority for several countries around the world. Though, primary reason behind this transition is to slow down global climate change and mitigate its effects, technological developments and declining costs of cleaner options is making them more attractive for the utilities in terms of increased reliability, operational performance, and cost effectiveness. Decarbonization of energy systems including power generation, transportation, and hydrocarbon production and use, offer new opportunities for the businesses to invest in technology, automation, and deployment. Innovative solutions are required to help governments and utility companies to take informed policy decisions and to make this transition successful, and for investors to make informed investment decisions.
Sustainability: Many companies are becoming consciously aware of environmental impact they create and trying to improve their sustainability performance. They are directly looking at solutions to improve their LCA numbers from cradle to grave. For example, companies are influencing farmers to buy Enhanced Efficiency fertilizers. Governments are starting to put penalties on nutrient release e.g., Ohio River Valley program etc, and some cases giving incentives to reduce environmental impacts by reducing waste, decreasing water consumption and emissions. Net zero carbon journey is increasingly becoming more attractive, thanks to new technologies and solutions.
