Projects:

Translating of the clients’ requirement, operational needs and constraints into the language of the technology needed for the project.

Defining the project requirements, including scope , quality and overall budget as well as the schedule of work.

Preparing project policies and procedures. This includes, but is not limited to, advising the client of decisions required in relation to legal and insurance considerations and assisting the client in respect of the approved process with statuary authorities and procurement of requisite permits.

Structuring the project into manageable sub entities. This includes pre-qualifying, recommending, selecting and negotiating contracts with consultants.

Managing the design for conformity with the agreed project requirements and budget as well as administering design changes. Suggesting and evaluating alternatives when needed and assisting the client in the selection of the appropriate design as to best meet the needs of the client in terms of scope, quality and cost.

Identifying dates when user requirements and decisions or approvals by the client are required and documenting them. Advising the client of the effect on the project of delayed decisions / approvals.

Identifying to the client the impact (scope, time, quality, cost) of proposed changes so that the client may make well informed decisions whether to proceed with the proposed changes.

Arranging and coordinating the procurement and quality control of all required materials, equipment and services, including those supplied by the client.

Procuring construction/implementation, including pre-qualification, tendering, contract negotiation, contract administration and expediting the process as appropriate.

Managing construction /implementation for conformity with the approved design, including detailed scheduling and coordination, management of inspection, administration of construction changes, approvals of progress claims, completion certificates, management of deficiency and warranty work, commission, operating manuals and record documentation.

Assisting client with start up and/or operating procedures including staff training

Consultancy:

Offering services in terms of project turnarounds, PMC role in support the client.

Management of Design :
We feel that it is important during the design process to maintain an open dialogue with the client during this process and to obtain client concurrence at various stages of the design process of the project, including design interpretation the design where necessary to ensure clarity before final approval. This is achieved by the implementation of systems of quality assurance in the design process to determine whether the design is adhering to the specified design standards as well as the implementation of an effective system of management controls on the design change process to promote adherence to the project intent, scope and budget When required the expertise of additional consultants will be utilized on various phases of the project to provide specialist technical advice, inspections and assistance.

The Design Process Includes: :

The project organizational structure and methods of operation of the consultants.

The generation and evaluation of various alternatives to meet the project intent and the translation of the best alternative into technical documents for tender.

Due consideration to value engineering and life cycle costing to the appropriate degree that is required by the client.

Assistance in the pre-qualification of bidders for construction and supply of materials and equipment.

Evaluation of bids once received.

The coordination of design between the various disciplines of the design process.

Due consideration to the constructability of any design.

The review of shop drawings submitted by successful bidders as normally undertaken.

Inspections during construction as appropriate.

Adequate means of ensuring prompt resolution of and response to site conditions, design and production problems, coordination and clarification questions.

The review of operating and maintenance manuals.

The preparation of As Built drawings at the end of the project.

Work with the client to prepare a design brief outlining the client’s requirements, forming a basis of selection of consultants including prequalification requirements and consultants staffing requirements.

Select consultants, either alone or in conjunction with the client.

Negotiate fee structure, terms of reference and responsibilities for the consultant with respect to the project team.

Brief the selected consultants on the client’s requirements and the project scope of work.

Professional / Chartered Engineer: The core of the engineering team will consist of professional / chartered engineers who will ensure compliance to all aspects of the engineering and design criteria.

The EICS team works either within a project environment to deliver integrated EICS scope, or on standalone tasks to deliver electrical, instrument and control systems solutions and expertise.

Within the customer organization, the team also provides staff to work within multi-discipline projects or on specific EICS tasks and solutions. Many within the team have the experience and flexibility to function effectively across all the disciplines within the group, for example providing E&I or I&C support to the customer. Where a fulltime site presence is not required, part time resources can be provided, with continuity of personnel being assured wherever possible.

The team is experienced in the application of statuary regulations and other standards and provides total solutions that reflect the requirements of IEC 65108.

On projects with safety case constraints, the engineering of safety requirements into EICS systems, the related design justification /substantiation and their impact on workflow are well understood.

Nominated personnel may act, for example, as design authority or responsible engineer for a customer.

The EICS team provides technical specialists to customers to enable them to independently assess vendor proposals and to ensure that the solutions meet scope at best possible cost.

Provide input to the design and review the contract documents regarding constructability and cost.

Provide input to the project schedule regarding construction activities.

Recommend tendering strategies and procedures up to and including the selection of tenders (including tenders for pre purchased equipment).

Call, receive, review, evaluate and compare tenders , recommend contract awards , and award contracts for construction where authorised

Mobilize and manage the construction site. This will include arranging for the provision of temporary facilities, organizing site logistics, (including materials storage and storage off site for pre purchased materials and equipment ), site safety and security and statuary requirements and arranging for site clean-up.

Mobilize contractors and review their schedules , proposed personnel , equipment selection and methodology.

Provide day to day coordination, scheduling , and superintendence of construction.

Expedite the submission and review of shop drawings.

Administer contracts with contractors, issue field instructions and field work authorizations as necessary, request.

quotation for changes and issue change orders as necessary. An important part of this process is to ensure that reasonable measures are taken to control situations that could lead to claims by maintaining sufficient records to both protect the client from unjustified claims and to permit recovery on client claims against others.

Promote satisfactory labour relations and assist in resolving disputes.

Ensure that reasonable measures are in place to monitor and control progress and costs and that these are reported to the engineer.

Call for inspection and correction of defective work.

Certify contractors request for payment, including progress certifications, substantial completion and final completion. Monitor compliance with applicable construction legislation.

Arrange for client to receive items such as built drawings, operating manuals, and operating instruction , as specified and legal surveys of the completed project.

Administer the correction of faults during the warranty period
