INDUSTRIES

INDUSTRIES

When challenges arise, OAC arrives. Industries around the world are becoming challenged to do more with less.  Globalization is resulting in more competition, regulation, and significant shifts in technology; affecting the bottom line. During these challenging times, companies often feel forced to take the standardized approach to maintaining a strong bottom line:

Revert to core services. Manage output. Cut staff. 

But that approach is no longer working. Globalization requires companies to take a completely different approach. That’s where OAC comes in. OAC provides short-term and long-term strategies that ensure our clients’ existing operating systems and maintenance structures are at their peak performance. We support our clients in improving their overall operational reliability, while reducing operational costs.

The result?  Improved Safety. A more effective, efficient and reliable operation. A stronger bottom line.

PULP & PAPER 

With high infrastructure and operations costs, commodity price variability and dramatic shifts in demand patterns, the Pulp & Paper industry is under pressure to achieve complete operational efficiency and cost reduction. Operators continue to contend with competition from imports, growing environmental demands, and consolidation of the industry, all placing additional burden on production teams to reduce variability while maintaining quality and profit margins. Increased regulations have added additional complexity to operations already struggling with a lack of manufacturing efficiency.

OAC helps Pulp & Paper clients by maximizing operational asset effectiveness and efficiency by addressing the systems and processes that determine maximum output. By having OAC maximize the client’s existing resources during shut downs and day to day operations, Pulp & Paper clients increase productivity and decrease inefficiencies; resulting in a benefit to the bottom line and their safety record.

MINING

The Mining sector has experienced significant changes over the past ten years including regulatory process changes, supply and demand challenges, and a change in public perception due to the unsteady North American political climate. It’s because of these changes that the mining sector has to be more prepared than ever to take advantage of upturns in the mining economy.

At OAC Consulting, our experience allows us to support clients in the mining sector in a way that prepares them to take advantage of positive sector swings. Our strategic planning and management services ensure that they are operating effectively and efficiently on a day to day basis; while preparing them to increase operations at any given moment to take advantage of market changes. 

At OAC Consulting, we support client performance improvements throughout all stages of mine development. Whether it be maintenance assessment for mine expansion, improving existing operational efficiencies, or strategizing reclamation; OAC provides our clients with an experienced Project management capability to ensure projects are managed to provide full benefits to the client.

OIL & GAS

Increased global crude oil supplies are creating significant challenges for the Oil & Gas industry. The challenge to maintain profitability during the low-price environment increases daily. As does the public pressure to reduce environmental impacts. These external factor stresses can often result in internal cost cutting to ensure that companies are providing profit to their stakeholders, at the expense of their staff and operations. The impacts of cost cutting can often be seen in upturns in the economy, when shortages within company resources become apparent.

At OAC Consulting our focus isn’t cutting costs. Our values guide us to believe that operational effectiveness and efficiency is crucial to increased flexibility and profitability. OAC Consulting is focused on providing consulting and management services that result in an increased level of operational excellence and cost control for the client during all markets.

CIVIL CONSTRUCTION

OAC consultants provide strategic maintenance management services to municipalities, institutions, and the construction industry at large.

The planning and approval of civil construction projects are multifaceted. Significant capital costs often overshadow the importance of a strategic maintenance cost estimate and an efficient maintenance operations strategy. However, when the importance of maintenance is overlooked, the impact can leave a lasting impression on stakeholders. Especially when it results in major financial losses, or disposition of assets that result in tax increases.

OAC consultants ensure that our clients have a clear understanding of the maintenance costs expected for years to come.  We develop strategic approaches to maintenance, so that our clients know they have the most effective and efficient maintenance management plan for the future.

Clients call OAC before the project is approved. Owned assets stay owned assets, without concern of unexpected costs arising in the future.
