Case Study/Project Management

ACMEPOINT Energy Services

Vertical integration services ranging from solar system engineering development to on-site maintenance dispatch.

Building context/challenges.

In the post-FiT era, solar power generation is returning to basic energy industry thinking and must consider economic efficiency in response to market competition. Evergreen Industries' operational service model integrates vertically from upstream manufacturing and system engineering construction to downstream, offering long-term power plant operation and maintenance services. The challenges faced in operational management include:

The planning of system construction projects, progress tracking, material and equipment management, subcontracting procurement, and other aspects largely rely on manual methods, resulting in inefficiency and difficult management.
The numerous and dispersed power plants require efficient management and scheduling of maintenance and inspection personnel, which directly impacts maintenance costs and service efficiency.
The efficiency and records of service maintenance provided by subcontractors lack effective assessment and management.
The dispersal of equipment, materials, and service records during inspection and maintenance processes makes operational management challenging.
The power generation equipment at the sites is scattered across various locations, lacking a monitoring mechanism for operation and power generation efficiency, making it difficult to grasp in real-time.

Solutions

► Establishing a project-oriented solar energy project management mechanism.

Project Schedule Management: Establish project milestones, develop Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) to estimate or plan construction development schedules.
Cost Estimation and Management: Establish a Bill of Materials (BOM) for the construction of the power plant to estimate construction development budgets. Construct the actual material and equipment information for the power plant based on the design BOM (Construction BOM) to control project costs.
Project Construction Schedule Management: Establish a Gantt Chart, S-Curve, and project progress reports to monitor power plant construction progress and quality at all times.
Project Document Management: Centralize the management of all relevant documents related to power plant construction and development projects, conduct closure handovers, and transition to knowledge management, serving as a vital source for sharing and extracting engineering experiences in the future.
Approval Workflow Management: Establish electronic forms and approval workflow management mechanisms to enhance the efficiency of project-related information and document review processes for various departments and subcontractors.
Issue Management: Centralize the management of all project-related issues, including progress of resolution and solutions, during the project development phase to enhance communication and coordination between internal teams and subcontractors. This information serves as valuable reference material for the subsequent operation and maintenance services of the power plant.

► Establish an integrated maintenance dispatch management mechanism.

Establish the following mechanisms for regular plant inspection, preventive maintenance, and ad-hoc repair service needs:

Work Order Management Mechanism to establish standardization of service record information.
Signature Process Management to monitor the quality of maintenance and servicing operations.
Resource Management (personnel, equipment, materials) to facilitate the appropriate allocation of resources.
Operation and Maintenance Service Record, to provide data retrieval and analysis.
- Work Order Progress Discrepancy Comparison Table
- Power Plant Cost Estimation Table
- Personnel Dispatch Schedule
Outsourced Vendor Quality Rating Form
Integrate internal ERP system for cost analysis and management.
Integrate engineering management mechanisms.
Integrate monitoring and analysis software.

Solar Energy Management

Benefits of implementation.

Enhance project scheduling and cost control capabilities to more accurately estimate and manage construction costs. Establish an effective and efficient communication model between the project team and subcontractors.
The maintenance dispatch mechanism enables real-time transparency of maintenance dispatch information, significantly improving operational efficiency, and reducing labor costs associated with maintenance dispatch.
Developing a diversified and efficient maintenance dispatch service model enhances the scope and effectiveness of maintenance services.
High-quality maintenance services may lead to derived demands for power plant expansion, deepening the cooperation with the owner (customer).
To make the solar energy industry more robust and comprehensive, and to contribute to the long-term development of renewable energy, creating a situation where the government, industry, and customers all benefit.
