Turnkey Food Processing Plant & Production Line Suppliers

What a turnkey food processing plant project covers

A turnkey food processing plant project transfers responsibility for the complete design, supply, installation, and commissioning of a food factory or production line to a single contractor. The scope typically includes: process engineering and plant design; civil and structural design input or liaison with the owner's civil contractor; equipment selection, procurement, and vendor management; mechanical and electrical installation; utilities installation (steam, compressed air, chilled water, refrigeration, effluent); control and automation system design, programming, and testing; factory acceptance testing at the contractor's works or at the supplier's facilities; site acceptance testing and production performance proving at the owner's facility; and operator and maintenance staff training. Buyers pay a project management premium for this integrated service but gain a single point of accountability for line performance, and significantly reduce the internal project management, engineering, and procurement resource required.
