33. Provide lighting, cooling, and heating as necessary to allow all jobs to progress without problems.

34. Plan for effective stores access. Stores may need to be staffed around the clock.

35. Establish a commissioning plan and readiness goal prior to the shutdown.

36. Plan to rotate all spares. If multiple spares for common items are available, rotate one per linestop. Then, build and test the removed item offline.

37. Plan positive reinforcement, based on milestone goals, for a job well done. Celebrate success, even as simply as providing free lunch or coffee.

38. Remember that many plant functions are coordinated with the shutdown. These include information systems upgrades, utility maintenance, special training coordination, and visits for special tours. Fixing the shutdown time is advantageous for the whole plant.

39. Complete longer critical jobs first. Use short, less critical jobs toward the end of the shutdown. The critical chain should drive the shutdown.

40. Install quick changeover connections and latches for many of the routine maintenance functions. Apply mistake proof techniques to eliminate errors on modular replacements. Provide common reference marks or stops so that automatic alignment occurs with modular equipment replacement.

41. Always have a large board visible for everyone to see; the board should update the progress and sequence of the jobs. Hold update meetings each shift change or at least every 24 hours. Keep the board current.
