Effective shutdown management

We provide full-scope plant shutdown management services for mining infrastructure and operations. Whether it’s a scheduled turnaround or urgent maintenance event, our teams work closely with your stakeholders to ensure clarity, compliance, and confidence from start to finish.

With a high level of leadership experience and a focus on safety, we ensure every shutdown is completed at the highest quality, on schedule and on budget.

Our team’s extensive exposure to different sites across Australia allows us to deliver the most effective approaches for your shutdown or project — providing a smooth transition from commissioning through to plant outage and operation.

Industries we support

Fixed Plant

We manage shutdowns for crushers, conveyors, material handling equipment, and balance machines, as well as overseeing structural remediation and repairs. Our team works closely with operations to align activities with site schedules and minimise disruption.

With a strong focus on safety and efficiency, we handle the coordination of ramp-ups, ramp-downs, isolations, and commissioning. Every job is carefully planned to reduce downtime and maintain the integrity of critical plant infrastructure.
Mobile Plant

We support the safe inspection, servicing and shutdown of mobile fleets across mining and civil operations. Our team oversees equipment maintenance for excavators, drilling, dump trucks, draglines, material handling and more.

The effective management of equipment maintenance is vital for ensuring peak operational performance, minimising downtime, and extending the lifespan of assets. Real-time reporting keeps clients informed at every stage of their maintenance project, maximising its success.
Non-Process Infrastructure (NPI)

From accommodation villages to airports, ports and power, SSS delivers NPI projects with the same quality and commitment we apply to core operations.

To keep mine sites running efficiently, we offer dewatering project support to pipe-laying crews, ensuring that all project phases are conducted efficiently, safely, and with minimal disruption to the overall operation.
Rail

SSS partners with major operators to deliver rail corridor, track maintenance and infrastructure projects in a safe and timely manner.

Our specialists are the critical link between planning and performance, ensuring that rail infrastructure projects are delivered on time, on budget, and without disruption to your broader operations.
