Decommissioning Planning

Siempelkamp Nuclear Services has a broad base of planning capabilities and experience from program planning to task specific work instructions. We approach to decommissioning planning results in the development of immediately usable planning/execution products which eliminate schedule delays, support accelerated closure and cleanup initiatives, and allow the client to remain fully focused on project execution.

Siempelkamp Nuclear Services' Philosophy on Detailed Project Planning:

n D&D projects are unique by nature, requiring analysis and evaluation of low-level details. They require tailored solutions for specific problems.

n D&D projects present interrelated challenges. Multiple solutions must be evaluated, allowing for the selection of the most "implementable" solution.

n D&D projects are successfully executed through consistent and rigorous use of proven planning tools, such as work breakdown structures, logic network diagrams, and detailed task-specific work packages.

Planning Capabilities:

n Comprehensive Sampling and Analysis Plans

n Historical Operations Hazards Maps

n Project Work Breakdown Structures & Logic Networks

n Integrated Baseline Schedules & Cost Estimates

● Cost estimate developed using a "bottom up" estimating methodology

● Detailed work packages define the project scope and form the basis for the schedule and cost estimate

n Project Execution Plans

n Procurement Plans

n Scope of Work Specifications

n Procedures and Work Instructions

n Risk Assessments

Key Success Factors:

n Preparation and assembly of project information prior to activities.

n Adoption of accepted and proven successful project development processes.

● Former Employee/Retiree Interview Process

● Historical Operations Hazards Mapping

● Historical Review Process

n Dedication of project liaisons to work collaboratively to ensure success - Think TEAM!

n Adoption of project development process improvements/lessons learned for application on future project planning.
