Systems of Plant Engineering and Management

For performing any function, a systematic way is to be first established. The systematic approach not only enhances the efficiency of the work but also provides a good environment, builds up good relations, demarcates the responsibilities and authorities. A good control over the men and their operations also are contributed by following an appropriate system. (The managers of systems school of management thought believe in the principle that "Set up an appropriate system, it will in turn set you up to in correct path").

As mentioned above the most common systems adopted for PEM are:

• Centralised Plant Engineering System (CPES).
• Decentralised Plant Engineering System (DPES).

Depending on the suitability, feasibility and the requirements an organisation will adopt one of the systems or in some proportional combination of the two.
