Abstract
Owners planning any new facility, particulary one which is a production facility, usually are intent upon that facility being available by a specific date to meet a market goal. Thus, they desire that any activity with the potential to influence that availability be carefully planned and made as efficient as possible. CII Publication 6-3, "Model Planning and Controlling System for EPC of Industrial Projects", describes the procedure for optimizing the process. That publication asserts that while facility startup itsefl must be accomplished in an efficient and orderly sequence, it is equally important that all preceding construction activity be completed in time to support the startup process, and that procurement and engineering be completed to support the construction process. This publication is concerned with the planning of construction to support startup.
