• Assisting in Planning: The pre-outage planning stage for steam turbine outages can begin up to 18 months prior to an anticipated outage. This stage involves completing a review of the specific steam turbine generator outage scope and operating history. It will include developing a list of the necessary equipment, tasks, and parts, which should be included in the final outage plan. The result of this stage will be the development of a draft document that reflects the equipment and service needs, objectives to be accomplished, and the parts or materials available and needed for a steam turbine generator outage.
• Performing All Planning Services: Detailed outage planning stage can start 6 to 8 months before the outage begins.

Most parts should be placed on order at this time to avoid delays for long lead time components.
• Reviewing and Critiquing Planning: A post outage review is conducted after the outage is completed for steam turbines and generators. It consists of a comprehensive analysis of the outage and identifies the achievement of milestones, added and deleted activities, parts used, recommendations for the next planned outage, and lessons learned. This review can become a key element when preparing the next outage plan.
