Summary:The life cycle of any paint shop is best expressed in four phases. They are: facility planning and specifications, facility construction, facility start-up/ramp-up, operation through the facility's lifespan. For the user (OEM), there are generally two or three internal sources of expertise and knowledge available in each phase. They are facility managers, production and production support staff, and maintenance staff. Outside the organization, there are many potential sources. Material suppliers, equipment suppliers, maintenance and construction services suppliers are the four major ones, but there may be more. Each one of these is as much a consultant as a supplier, but one word of caution: there are good and bad consultants just as there are good and bad suppliers for each situation.
