As utilization increases, the safety and environmental performance of a plant decreases.
Bottle Mix complexity plays a
role too

Appendix A: Timeline
Year 1: Begin shutting down WA plan – put it up for sale (or rent); Start preparing CA for safety plan; Redistribute NC to closest suppliers ; begin looking for best base oil suppliers in CN.
Year 2: 80% of WA should be completed – Decide whether selling or renting would be more profitable; Officially introduce safety plan to CA -> begin implementing; solidify excess NC to near plants; choose CN supplier
Year 3: Evaluate effectiveness of SP – if effective, start with slightly below average plants; completely terminate operations in WA; begin supplying base oil from CN
Year 4+ Measure results, make changes as needed – start with quarterly measurements and if no incidents, then branch out to biannual measurements
Appendix B: Underlying Assumptions
LOBPs are machine-focused
(automated)
Greater utilization leads to lower
safety
(502) distance from CN to OH vs OH to
LA (965)
18-wheeler tanker carries 8550 gallons
& 18 wheeler van carries 3000 gal
Ohio reduced price = $3.80
Per gallon cost for rail - $15 and rail is
