Overview
Why Attend

The Transition from Construction to Operations Training Course, within the Engineering, Maintenance and Operation Training Courses category and Operations Readiness and Assurance Training Courses specialization, provides a structured framework for managing Construction Handover from project delivery into operational ownership. The course focuses on handover planning, EPC coordination, commissioning interfaces, documentation, asset readiness, operational acceptance, and transition planning.

Participants learn how to coordinate construction completion with commissioning and operations requirements while establishing effective communication between project and operations teams. The course addresses handover documentation, punch-list management, systems completion, readiness verification, training, procedures, and operational integration to support a controlled transition from construction activities to safe and reliable operations.

Course Objectives

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

  • Understand the principles and stages of Construction Handover.
  • Develop effective transition planning strategies for construction-to-operations activities.
