rk (short term emergency repairs, small scale preventive maintenance, other routine work, etc.) fits into the category of Daily work Craftsmen Daily work Turnaround Total Client $ 8MM $ 2MM $ 10MM Contractor $ 5MM $ 9MM $ 14MM Total $ 13MM $ 11MM $ 24MM Supervisor Total Client $ 1MM Contractor $ Total $ Since the Craftsmen table represents a larger dollar amount than the Supervisor table, it is logical to pursue cost savings opportunities in this area first.  What is the utilization of Craftsmen in the assets? In central maintenance? And for contractors? Assume each area is utilized 100% of the time, 50 weeks per year, 40 hours per week.  How does the labor cost of craftsmen ($24MM) on a refinerysized basis (., $cost / per barrel of crude oil processed) pare with industry averages? Consulting your industry data base shows that costs appear to be about 20% above the average of peer refineries. This is an important question to determine if there is a problem with costs (don’t assume there is, the client may be performing better than industry average!)  Is there any particular reason why turnaround work is so heavily skewed toward contractors? Turnaround work tends to be more cyclical. An external workforce is used to absorb some of this additional work. Keep in mind that both client and contractor Craftsmen are capable of performing any maintenance job at the plant. After further analysis of the tables the key fact that should bee appear odd is the large difference in the cost per unit of labor between your client’s Craftsmen and the outside contractor’s Craftsmen. Often candidates will ask for the hourly wage rates of these two groups. There is sufficient data to calculate these numbers. The calculation is: Annual cost of client craftsmen = $10MM/ ( 11 Craftsmen/asset x 9 assets + 100 Craftsmen in Central maintenance) = $50,000 / year Annual cost of contractor craftsmen = $ 14 MM/ 140 contractor Craftsmen = $100,000 / year Again, this difference should provoke a series of questions to understand the difference.  Is there any difference in the work。
