Why You Need a Past Projects Register
Make sure your company has a good system for storing and listing past projects. It must be easy to use and be available to all staff. It must also provide all the key information that future projects need.
Inspection and Verification of Construction Works
Inspection and verification of construction works is important. Ensure the inspector is independent and readily available for witnessing of works.
Reliability Builds Trust
Do what you say you will do, and do it when you said you will do it. Report to the client regularly and clearly. Keeping people informed significantly reduces project problems. Be reliable.
Do Safety in Design Properly
Do safety in design properly. Ensure your project and company have well developed systems to ensure it is done properly. Document your safety in design checks properly.
Fences Required Around All Construction Work
Install safety or security fences around physical works areas. Do a safety risk assessment to determine the type of fence required. Allow enough budget.
Allow Costs for Safety in Design (SID) Compliance
You must allow time and budget to do safety in design. This will reduce the structure’s safety risk and your, your designer and your companies legal risk.
Time Forecasting System
A good timesheet and labour forecasting system should make the task of budget forecasting much more efficient and accurate, saving time and money.
Single Source of Data
It is best to have a single source of data in your storage system for all information on a project. It should be easy to use, accessible to all staff, and remove the need for storing documents or information all over the place.
Verification Systems (Quality Assurance)
Ensure your company and your project have good, easy to use verification systems (Quality Assurance) in place to ensure that your project delivers to the quality expected by your company and by the client.
You Need a Good Suppliers List
Save time and money with a well organised list of suppliers and contractors that can be contacted for work to help deliver your project.
