1) Model & Priorities
Industrial Gas Leadership = Safety × Uptime × (Unit Economics + Partner Reach + Decarbonization)
- Safety First — process safety management, leading indicators, disciplined MOC
- Uptime & Reliability — ASU/PSA availability, telemetry, preventative maintenance
- Unit Economics — mode-of-supply fit, LTV:CAC, cost-to-serve, energy pass-through
- Partner Ecosystem — EPCs, OEMs, distributors, integrators, key accounts
- Decarbonization — power mix, efficiency, logistics, capture/offsets
Tip: Choose the right supply mode (on-site/pipeline/bulk/cylinder) early—this drives margin and reliability.
2) Diagnostic Ladder (score 0–10)
Safety & Compliance
- 0–2: Reactive; incidents underreported; overdue actions
- 3–4: Basic PSM; lagging indicators only
- 5–6: Leading KPIs tracked; MOC in place; audits on time
- 7–8: Near misses analyzed; bowtie barriers monitored
- 9–10: Proactive risk mgmt; zero overdue; culture embeds safety
Reliability & OEE
- 0–2: Frequent unplanned downtime; no telemetry
- 3–4: Planned PM; limited sensors
- 5–6: OEE tracked; RCAs closed
- 7–8: Predictive; spares strategy; remote support
- 9–10: >98% availability; continuous improvement system
Commercial & Contracts
- 0–2: Commodity pricing; no take-or-pay
- 3–4: Basic ToP; weak energy clauses
- 5–6: Indexed clauses; mode-of-supply fit
- 7–8: Mix of on-site, bulk, cylinder; portfolio ROCE targets
- 9–10: Structured pricing; best-fit mode + pass-through excellence
Decarbonization & Cost
- 0–2: No baseline; diesel-heavy routes
- 3–4: Baseline set; ad-hoc projects
- 5–6: Plan for power mix & efficiency
- 7–8: Logistics optimized; capture pilots
- 9–10: Portfolio-optimized abatement & reporting
3) 12-Month Roadmap (2026)
Q1 — Stabilize
- PSM reset: leading KPIs, MOC, overdue = 0
- Reliability baseline: availability, OEE, MTBF
- Contract health review: ToP & energy clauses
Q2 — Optimize
- Predictive maintenance pilots
- Mode-of-supply re-fit of 3 customers
- Distribution routes re-optimized
Q3 — Scale
- Partner tiering (EPC/OEM/distributors)
- Licensable training + SOP packs
- Decarb wave: power & logistics
Q4 — Lead
- >98% availability on critical sites
- ≥50% partner-sourced growth
- Portfolio ROCE uplift vs 2025
4) 90-Day Ops + Commercial Sprint
Days 1–30
- Safety: near-miss capture + MOC discipline
- Reliability: top 3 bad actors RCA
- Commercial: ToP & energy clause template
Days 31–60
- Predictive PM on critical assets
- Rescope 2 customers’ supply mode
- Route time cut by 10%
Days 61–90
- License-ready training pack
- Partner co-marketing launch
- Decarb plan v1 signed
5) Operating System (PSM • S&OP • DMS)
- Daily: safety brief + critical alarms review
- Weekly: reliability board (A/P/Q, OEE, RCAs)
- Monthly: S&OP (demand, production, distribution, inventory)
- Quarterly: portfolio ROCE & decarb review
Make problems visible; fix in-process; document in SOPs; teach & license.
6) Metrics That Matter
- Availability (%) • OEE (%) • MTBF/MTTR
- On-time delivery (%) • Product loss (%) • €/ton-km
- ToP compliance (%) • Indexed price realization (%)
- Energy intensity (kWh/unit) • CO₂ baseline & abatement (t/y)
- ROCE • EBITDA margin
7) Scripts & Templates
Mode-of-Supply Refit (client email)
Subject: Reliability & Cost Optimization for {{Plant}}
Hi {{Name}}, based on your usage (avg {{Nm3/h}}, peak {{Nm3/h}}) and uptime needs, we recommend {{mode}} to improve reliability and reduce €/unit by ~{{x}}%.
If you agree, we propose a 30-minute review to validate data and model scenarios. — {{Signature}}
Energy Index Clause (proposal snippet)
Price is indexed to {{index}} with energy share {{e%}} of base price. Adjustment = Base × (1 + EnergyShare × ΔIndex%). Floor/Cap {{-x%}}/{{+y%}}, review quarterly.
8) Interactive Tools
9) Risks & Anti-Patterns
- Wrong supply mode (margin leakage, poor uptime)
- Weak energy pass-through (erosion in volatility)
- Unplanned downtime due to spares/PM gaps
- Empty backhauls; poor route density
- Decarb targets without baseline or economics
10) Next Steps & CTA
Now: Run the tools above (mode, contract, OEE, distribution, energy, decarb, safety).
Then: Pick one 30-day booster and set the weekly cadence.
