ETP HV-LV Renewals & HV-62A Switchboard

The Safety Management Plan developed at the beginning of the project defined the critical risks associated with the scope of works. Principles and procedures using the Melbourne Water Agreed Framework Safety Behaviours were developed to address and control the risks. Upon mobilisation and commencement of the project the risks were re-assessed based on the site conditions and construction methodologies to ensure all risks were addressed.

Several safety in design meetings were conducted along the design process to enable the project team to assess the methodology and deliver a constructable asset in a safe manner.

A dedicated HSEQ advisor ensured all legistlative and company procedure information was available so that the project team could ensure the safest possible environment for the construction team and any stakeholders on site.

COVID-19 presented some unique challenges for the team. Increased work space was allowed for whilst also ensuring DHHS recommendations and requirements were exceeded.

Drawing on the diverse experience of the project team, quality construction was a significant focus. All team members contributed to the variety of knowledge, maximising the product quality delivered.

Project deliverables were manufactured to engineering drawings and specifications were monitored by qualified personnel, with quality inspections and audits conducted to ensure products met the specifications.

ITPs are developed by SFP for self performing construction deliverables, and also developed by subcontractors for all manufactured / subcontractor deliverables. ITPs form the basis for review and acceptance and are reviewed by qualified SFP personnel.

Products and services identified as non-conforming were identified and reported for immediate corrective action to ensure there was no impact to the project’s schedule or cost.
