Machine Shop Heavy Duty Cleaning – Rural Area (Case Study)

After an unexpected large fire broke out in the paint booth inside the facility, CRUSA was called in to restore the machinery and facility to pre-loss condition as quickly as possible. This facility was in a very rural area adding major complexity as hotels and services were at least 40 minutes away. Upon arrival CRUSA determined that some of the specialized machinery key to getting the business back to production had more soot and damage than expected. CRUSA upped our manpower by an additional 30 members to ensure we limited the downtime they would experience and came up with a 5 stage plan to limit contamination and get key areas cleaned and open quickly.

Full structure cleaning was performed on a daily basis, with the heaviest affected area Boarded up and contained, and focus on the 2 key high profit centers. These two priority areas were complete in the first 7 days, helping the client get back to business faster than they could have expected. The remaining areas were completed on priority over the next several weeks, finalizing everything ahead of schedule, while exceeding expectations even with the logistics complexities.
