Boost the overall performance of your projects
Specifying your projects to meet needs spot-on, identifying the best possible solution, continuously optimising and controlling risks.

Controlling quality, cost and deadlines for a project requires:
- An understanding of the customer's actual need and a formal document recording this need, which is understandable and can been easily shared
- A guarantee that design decisions meet the need spot-on while identifying the best possible technico-economic alternative
- Risk control over the entire project life cycle
- A continuous estimation of the cost of a project for management purposes.
Orano engineers applied:
- the Minimum Technical Solution methodology, based on a functional analysis involving customers in the execution of a project at the earliest possible stage. This approach ensures that the requirements applicable to the definition of the architecture are reconsidered and that the customer obtains the maximum possible value;
- the Design to Target Cost policy to track costs and identify opportunities helping to achieve the target.
A risk assessment can be run for the project to complement these two approaches.
These approaches are supported by cost estimates produced by Orano experts.
- Using the Minimum Technical Solution (MTS) methodology via Orano engineers
- Implementing a Design to Target Cost (DTC) approach with the technical teams
- Assessing risks, while considering Orano feedback on projects if necessary
- Estimating costs
Cost killing initiatives for internal Orano group projects save approximately 30% when using the MTS method and 10 to 15% when using the DTC method.
Orano benefits from its experience and that of its engineers when assessing the cost of a facility.
Orano has deployed this type of approach for waste conditioning and collection projects (HAO silo, HAPF, RCB, MAU, MAPu, pool densification, hydrofluorination) for the Orano group and for client such as CEA (UCC2, UCC3 facilities).
- A guaranteed optimal solution designed to meet actual needs
- Less development iterations
- Risk control and costs at completion
