Compare planned needs with confirmed availability
Planning coordination for people, parts, suppliers, and shifts
Use the authorized planning and inventory systems to compare anticipated needs with confirmed availability. If a gap or conflicting assumption appears, raise it through the relevant owner role and record the handoff in the authorized system. The example below is illustrative, not inventory data or a commitment.
Review four resource areas
Coordinate the handoffs; use local systems for current records.
People and shift coverage
Compare planned work windows with role coverage recorded through authorized local planning.
- Identify affected shifts and handoff points.
- Raise a role-coverage gap to the shutdown coordinator and relevant area owner.
Parts and tooling
Check current availability and planned need in the authorized inventory and work systems.
- Record the required planning window and owner role.
- Route a supply gap to the responsible maintenance or materials owner.
Supplier interfaces
Coordinate supplier timing, affected work packages, and the receiving owner role.
- Record delivery and shared-window dependencies in the authorized system.
- Carry unresolved timing conflicts into the interface review.
Staging and access dependencies
Identify where staging assumptions intersect with shared access, other packages, or shift handoffs.
- Name affected area owner roles.
- Escalate local access questions through the approved site route.
Illustrative resource dependency
Fictional example only; not stock, purchasing, or confirmed availability data.
| Example need | Planning window | Owner role | If a gap appears |
|---|---|---|---|
| Seal kit associated with a planned maintenance package | Before the package's scheduled planning review | Maintenance planner | Check the authorized inventory record and route an unresolved supply gap to the responsible materials owner. |
