Would you recommend TCS to others? "Absolutely I would. Dustin and his team met every goal that was given. He also accomplished many things that have nothing to do with the turnaround but was there to ensure the plant was successful in keeping reliable and operating."
TCS supported the planning and execution of a turnaround at a major nitrogen fertilizer facility in Louisiana. The client reported that the turnaround was completed successfully, under budget, and ahead of schedule.
The client noted that TCS exceeded expectations throughout both planning and execution, despite the facility’s unique operating challenges. They specifically highlighted the value of TCS’s database tools, ProAxis and ProDash, along with the strength of the on-site team.
“A successful turnaround was achieved, which was the goal. We came in under budget and ahead of schedule, which was amazing.”
The client also recognized TCS for contributing beyond the immediate turnaround scope, helping support broader plant reliability and continued operations.
“Our expectations were surpassed. During this planning and execution, we had many challenges due to how this site operates, but TCS was nothing but helpful to get through all of them.”
When asked whether they would recommend TCS, the client responded positively and emphasized that the team met every goal assigned while also supporting the plant’s overall success.
As part of continuous improvement, the client identified an opportunity to further streamline budgeting and estimating tools, especially for facilities with non-standard operating conditions. TCS is using this feedback to continue improving its planning and estimating processes.
