IntroductionIntroductionIntroductionIntroduction
• Pfizer – The world’s leading producer of pharmaceutical products . . . With Kalamazoo, MI as it’s largest global manufacturing facility (Formerly known as Upjohn and Pharmacia)
• Armstrong International – A 104 year old, privately held, global company focused on delivering Intelligent System Solutions for Steam, Air and Hot Water Utilities. (Providing Products to Providing Utilities)

DefinitionDefinitionDefinitionDefinition
• Program – A plan for a coherent sequence of incidents (A start and stop!)
• Process – A progressively continuing operation that consists of a series of controlled actions systematically directed toward a particular result

• In 1980’s, trap testing eliminated from the maintenance budget as a well intentioned cost savings (6000 steam traps) Program Ends!
• Armstrong performed pilot study (5 years later) with resulting economics justifying a budget from management

Process vs. ProgramProcess vs. ProgramProcess vs. ProgramProcess vs. Program• Armstrong assisted testing and replacement
of all 6000 traps and provided software for steam loss measurement
• First year savings: $479,000
Production time improved in some areas
• First year investment: $110,000 (all costs)
• Management created budget for future years from “fuel saved”
(The Process Begins!)

Process vs. ProgramProcess vs. ProgramProcess vs. ProgramProcess vs. Program• Subsequent years Pfizer staffed one person to test
and monitor traps
• Every year management realized a net positive cash flow from the “Process” (annual savings $50,000 - $100,000)
• Due to retirement, Armstrong provided the on-site technician for last 3 years with similar financial results
• Armstrong’s on-site technician also provides total steam system troubleshooting
• Over 10 years Pfizer/Armstrong have recognized more than $1,000,000 in savings from just this “PROCESS”

• Armstrong has gone on to provide complete steam system audits at Pfizer’s Puerto Rico and Italy facilities
• These audits have recognized an additional $1 million dollars in energy conservation projects
• Armstrong also conducted a turnkey implementation of heat pipes for “free” cooling for HVAC make-up air in Puerto Rico

Concluding Comments Concluding Comments (cont’d)(cont’d)
• Develop Processes not Programs when dealing with energy initiatives
• Because many energy projects have attractive paybacks, form partnerships with vendors that can stretch your resources and accomplish your cost reduction objectives
• Remember . . . Low-hanging fruit . . . Grows again!
