Prefab Ready for the Shutdown
A planned shutdown leaves little time for unfinished fabrication. Plan shop work around equipment installation and tie-in dates so field crews have the assemblies they need when production stops.

Work back from the shutdown
Keep each prefab package tied to the equipment installation or tie-in it supports. Plan fabrication, testing and delivery before the plant's agreed shutdown, alongside the other work already committed in your shop.
- The assemblies required for each shutdown activity
- The fabrication and checks needed before dispatch
- The crew and station capacity available before delivery
Finish the tie-in package before the plant stops
Suppose a process-piping package is needed at the start of a planned shutdown. Its welding and shop testing are scheduled behind a package that the site will not need until later.
The planner compares both routes and confirms that reversing their order meets both delivery requirements. The team gives the tie-in package the earlier welding slot and books its required testing before dispatch.
The crew follows the revised sequence, and the tested tie-in package is delivered before the shutdown begins. The later package keeps its agreed delivery date. In this example, the change makes room for the shutdown work without adding another field task to the outage.
Keep readiness visible before dispatch
Review fabrication progress and outstanding checks while there is still time to act. A delivery tied to a shutdown needs a current view of the work remaining, so the project team can address a shortfall before the plant stops.
Bring your next shutdown package
Bring a prefab package, its required checks and the shutdown activity it supports. We can compare its production plan with the delivery date and your shop's existing commitments.
