Shutdown Starts Before Shutdown: Planning a Better Cleanroom Reset

Episode Overview

Shutdown success starts long before the cleanroom goes offline. In this episode of Inside the Cleanroom, Christina Adkison and Dave Nobile discuss how pre-shutdown walkthroughs help teams identify issues, review environmental monitoring trends, prioritize repairs, and build a clear plan before work begins. They also cover why fresh eyes matter, how to assign owners and accountability, and how cleaning and maintenance decisions made during shutdown can strengthen cleanroom operations after restart.
