Evaluation Report
Title: An Evaluation Report by Pro-active Consultants Inc., concerning technical issues and personnel problems at BAC's power plant.
Executive Summary:
BAC is a company that produces the fertilizers and has plants throughout the country. Due to the higher costs incurred in power plants while the fertilizers price was falling, the company has significant difficulties competing in the markets. Vice-Chair of the Corporation Ms. Paollette Machon has made every effort to identify the problem and has done no work to identify technical gaps and staff issues in the plant, so she contacts Pro-active Consultants Inc., which tends to be an independent advisor. A report was prepared by the Pro-active Consultant to identify reasons for this problem that must be corrected shortly.

1. Introduction
BAC's is a fertilizer producing, distribution and competitive sector because of the cost increase in a power plant, while the global fertilizer market prices continue to be low. This makes it difficult for them to compete on the market. The vice president of the company has visited the power house several times by himself, but the better conclusion can not be drawn. In order to resolve the problem, they contacted an Indepents consultancy named Pro-active Consultants Inc. In order to analyze the issue, the consultant was invited to see Gordontown. The proactive advisors should be identified and an evalution report should be written about the technical problem and personnel difficulties faced by the company.
2. Technical Problems
The main task of pro-active contractors is to recognise technical issues. The major problem in the house of power is to be understood. It should also be remembered that over the last few years the price of fuel has increased to 18%.
The vice president invited Mr. Curt Hanness and Mr. Markham in the house to research and recognize the hot water system and the energy production system.
The reason behind the technical difficulties, the dialogue and the tour with the plant workers across the BAC energy house in Gordonown was discovered while visiting the Gordontown power plant. The issues are listed below.
Insufficient log management, even machine files can not be changed and have not been properly documented if it needs records. The maintenance of equipment files that help to understand the condition of equipment is essential. The understanding that equipment is prone to wear and tear is important. Improper maintenance can cause fatigue and technical difficulties. Information is expected to be registered. This is usually the first issue. Good housekeeping does not necessarily prevent problems with appliances, it is important to keep them.
Boiler and flow metres, which tends to be a main cause for the technical problem, are badly maintained and maintained. For the past three years, flow meters have not been maintained for the production company to serve. The inexact outcome can be given by this poorly held flow meter. This is also a source of technical issues.
3. Personnel Problems:
The statement that Mr Markham is in a struggle or uncertainty of embracing and bringing about the new change is important to understand. This can be the main personnel problem.
Shift engineers tend to maintain the pumps and machinery for the vaccine, but not enough maintenance time has been provided. Rather than preventive maintenance, the organization opts for expensive replacement. This dosage gives plant personnel no room for a significant knowledge and operational update of the equipment.
It should be told that Mr. Markham and Hanness show no interest in a Corland 200 power plant operated by Micro, when negotiating it with them in "Plant Maintenance" and shows eagerness in having technical updates.
4. Summary/Conclusion
It is acknowledged that Mr. Hanness taught Markham well, but he used his old techniques to keep him from impenetrating the new change. But only with the aid of new changes do the problems have to be resolved. The business must provide the young talents with enough time to improve their abilities and also transfer to industry competition with up-to-date equipment and technology. Mr Markham also had to embrace the above-mentioned move, which is allowing the company to farewell, shortly after Mr. Hanness ' withdrawal on the sector.
Recommendation:
With the current technical updates the company needs to be up to date and take decisions to bath in the market well, according to the updates, so as to avoid problems.
