Project Planning Guide

Prepare the site before the container arrives.

A clear site plan makes delivery and connection more predictable. Review access, supporting works, utilities and installation responsibilities alongside the control-house design.

01 / Planning guide

Location and access

Confirm the footprint

Use the approved finished dimensions, including external HVAC and other projections. Allow the specified personnel, equipment service and electrical working clearances around the installation.

Plan support and placement

Have the appropriate project professionals establish support, anchorage, drainage and site-specific structural requirements. Confirm the finished assembly's weight and placement arrangement before delivery.

Check the delivery route

Review road access, overhead obstructions, turning space and lifting access. Assign transport, offloading and rigging responsibilities, then coordinate the delivery sequence with the site team.

02 / Planning guide

Power, connections and startup

01

Provide the electrical design inputs

Confirm supply voltage, phase, frequency, available fault current and grounding requirements. Coordinate incoming power and field cable routes with the approved connection drawings.

02

Prepare process interfaces

Identify motor, instrument and communication connections. Agree which contractor supplies and installs external cable runs, supports, penetrations and terminations.

03

Define readiness for startup

Schedule utility availability, inspections and process equipment readiness. Set the responsibilities for final checks, commissioning, operator handoff and completion of any site-dependent testing.

Keep a copy for your project review, then share the details with our team.

A few useful answers.

Does delivery include offloading?

The proposal states the delivery and offloading responsibilities. Confirm the required equipment and lifting plan before scheduling shipment; freight and site placement are separate activities.

Which climate information should we provide?

Share the installation location, expected ambient conditions, elevation and environmental exposures. Equipment heat loads and those site conditions inform the thermal design.
