Every forward-thinking operation knows that to drive sustainable performance improvement, you have to seek out the root causes of inefficiency. While the first step in this process is determining where the problems lie, the most difficult part is identifying what perspective to take when determining what changes are required to improve. With a Solomon Deep Drill-Down (3D) Performance Analysis, we help clarify your situation by discussing your improvement objectives and designing a custom analysis of your benchmarking data to determine the root cause of your inefficiencies.
You can learn more about this service by downloading the 3D Performance Analysis brochure or contacting Kevin Proops, at +1.972.739.1815 or via email at Kevin.Proops@Solomononline.com.
3D Performance Analysis starts by defining your priorities (operating expense, yields, strategic issues, etc.) and deciding how quickly you need to achieve your goals, then we can start building your custom-designed analysis to generate solutions. Potential performance improvement analysis areas may include:
• Energy improvements
• Maintenance turnaround interval, duration, and effort
• Yield gaps
• Productivity of past capital investment
• Operations staffing
• Catalyst life and cost
.
3D Analysis can:
• Be part of your strategic planning process
• Generate improvement options
• Help you estimate the cost and benefit of each option given the data supplied
• Create a targeted improvement map for 2, 5, or 10 years, depending on your goals

How it Works
We start by understanding your improvement objectives so we can determine what areas of your data to analyze. From there, we create a list of analysis options from which you choose where to focus, ensuring that the analysis output is aligned with your expectations. Then, we compare your data to “world-best” performers for opportunity screening and then turn to custom peers for validation of those opportunities.

The Result
Your 3D Performance Analysis goes beyond defining your potential inefficiencies—it delves deeper into the data to show you specific changes to drive improvement and achieve your business objectives. With 3D, we will deliver a custom analysis that answers your performance improvement questions and supplies you with a clear set of realistic targets.
