UHT SYSTEM INSTALLATION
PROJECT MANAGEMENT
FoodBowl / Synlait Milk Ltd
The Project
Synlait Milk had identified FoodBowl as the ideal facility to relocate their pilot-scale UHT system for continued R&D operations. FoodBowl required assessment of their existing facility infrastructure to determine necessary upgrades for accommodating the UHT system whilst maintaining regulatory compliance and continuing day-to-day operations. The project also required integration with existing aseptic filling systems.
Our Approach
Foodscope conducted a detailed facility assessment for FoodBowl to evaluate infrastructure readiness and identify the required upgrades. We managed the project, coordinating multiple contractors through quotation, design, and installation phases for the service upgrades. Coordination was also required with third party installers for the UHT placement and system integration with existing aseptic filling equipment. Our project management included stakeholder communication protocols, installation sequencing, and coordination of plant downtime and room penetrations to ensure minimal disruption to ongoing FoodBowl operations.
Results Achieved
Managed the successful integration of the UHT plant with the existing aseptic filler and infrastructure through service upgrades including steam, compressed air, potable water, and cooling system enhancements. Coordinated multiple stakeholders and contractors through the installation and commissioning phases whilst maximising operational uptime for existing FoodBowl users. Delivered a fully operational processing system that is now sucessfully conducting R&D operations.
