The increasing importance of life-cycle costing and risk assessment for key assets require a proper understanding the wide range of technical and operational factors influencing the performance of capital assets. Safe operation is essential, whilst maximising return on capital and minimising operational expenditure. To integrate financial and technical arguments, BHRSolutions carries out site audits and utilises its multi-disciplinary expertise together with specialist software tools and physical modelling and testing facilities to:

• Specify and gather detailed data on the plant, process or system performance at process and component level
• Make objective assessment of the technology used and it's likely capabilities and lifetime
• Model the effects of investment changes using simulation, optimisation and mathematical techniques
• Predict capital maintenance costs and specify best operational practices
• Evaluate risk and efficiency improvement opportunities
• Make operational or design recommendations
• Prioritise reduced budgets, utilising decision support software.

Significant improvements on safety or environmental impact, energy usage, investment or maintenance costs can result.
