Planning and executing a new crane

New Crane Projects — From Requirement to Commissioned Crane

A new EOT crane decision is easier to get right before procurement than to correct afterward. We work through the requirement, specification, vendor comparison and drawing review before you commit budget — then stay engaged through installation and commissioning.

When you need this

Situations This Covers

  • You are budgeting for a new crane and need a defensible technical requirement before approaching vendors.
  • You have multiple vendor quotations that look different on paper and need a like-for-like technical comparison.
  • You need someone to check general arrangement and structural drawings before fabrication starts.
  • You are adding a crane to a new bay and need runway, headroom and approach clearances checked.
  • You need independent technical support during installation and commissioning, separate from the supplying vendor.

Why it matters

Risks This Addresses

  • Specifying capacity or duty class that does not match real operating cycles.
  • Selecting a hoist, drive or control system unsuited to the application.
  • Committing to a vendor quotation with unclear technical scope.
  • Structural or clearance issues discovered only after fabrication.
  • Commissioning gaps that surface as problems in the first year of operation.

Technical scope

What This Work Covers

Requirement & Duty Study

Operating cycle, load spectrum, ambient conditions and duty classification established from actual usage, not assumption.

Capacity, Span & Lift Definition

Safe working load, span, height of lift and clearances defined against the building and process layout.

Hoist, Drive & Control Specification

Hoist type, long travel and cross travel drive arrangement, and control philosophy specified to the application.

Structural & Runway Review

Runway beam, rail alignment and column loading reviewed against the proposed crane's wheel loads.

Vendor Technical Comparison

Vendor proposals normalised into a single comparison covering capacity, duty, components and exclusions.

Drawing & Documentation Review

General arrangement, electrical and structural drawings reviewed for compliance and completeness before fabrication.

Getting started

Information We Collect

None of this is required to start a conversation — it helps us move faster once we do.

  • Building layout, bay dimensions and existing runway details, if any.
  • Load types, weights and handling frequency.
  • Ambient and environmental conditions — temperature, dust, corrosive exposure.
  • Any existing vendor quotations or drawings already in hand.
  • Target timeline and budget range, where available.

Working process

How We Take This Forward

01

Requirement discussion

We walk through the application, load profile and constraints with your team.

02

Specification development

Capacity, span, duty, hoist, drive and control requirements are documented.

03

Vendor comparison

Quotations are normalised and compared against the specification.

04

Drawing review

General arrangement and structural drawings are checked before fabrication proceeds.

05

Installation coordination

Site readiness, alignment and installation sequence are coordinated with the vendor or erector.

06

Testing & commissioning support

Load testing and functional checks are witnessed and recorded before handover.

Deliverables

What You Receive

  • Documented crane requirement and technical specification
  • Vendor technical comparison sheet
  • Drawing review report with flagged items
  • Installation and commissioning checklist
  • Commissioning record and handover file

Technical background

One Example From the Founder's Broader Experience

Steel & Heavy Engineering

Heavy-Duty Dual-Hoist EOT Crane

75-ton main hoist with a 25-ton auxiliary hoist

Configuration
Double-girder EOT crane.
Scope
Application review, duty and load-path assessment, specification coordination, maintainability review, installation planning and commissioning oversight.

This reflects equipment type and scope from Karanam Srinivas's wider industrial and EOT crane career, not a client engagement contracted directly through Pari Solutions. See Selected Project Experience for the complete list.
