5 Construction Activities and Quality Management Present Environment for Construction Tasks & Projects Training More ES&H Presence and Resources Hazard Analysis Expanded Use of the Work Notification Permitting Requirements Integrated Safety Management (ISM)

6 Construction Activities and Quality Management Laboratory Expectations (Our Mission) That work (construction projects and tasks) be performed in accordance with applicable drawings and specifications (the contract documents), completed on time, and within the approved budget; That there be flexibility in design with the appropriate authorities and approvals; That there is consistency and standards in dealing and interacting with laboratory construction subcontractors.

7 Construction Activities and Quality Management Laboratory Intent Reduce the number of T&M tasks. Develop a well defined scope of work for projects and tasks. Allow for and work for a more competitive environment. Attain more control of the construction projects and tasks we perform.

8 Construction Activities and Quality Management Learning Objectives Define Construction Activities Distinctions Between Construction Activities at Fermilab Responsibilities – TM & CCs Contract Documents

9 Construction Activities and Quality Management Learning Objectives (cont.) Subcontractor’s ES&H Plan Subcontractors Quality Control Plan Fermilab’s Construction Quality Assurance Program Building Authority

10 Construction Activities and Quality Management Construction Activities Any combination of engineering, procurement, erection, installation, assembly, or fabrication activities involved in creating a new facility or altering, adding to, or rehabilitating an existing facility. It also includes the alteration and repair (including dredging, excavating and painting) of buildings, structures, or other real property, as well as any construction and excavation activities conducted as part of environmental remediation efforts. Projects defined as maintenance projects under the Davis-Bacon Act definition may be considered construction projects under this definition.

11 Construction Activities and Quality Management Construction Activities (cont.) At Fermilab construction activities include all projects and tasks performed by subcontractors for the purpose of creating a new facility or altering, adding to, or rehabilitating an existing facility. A facility includes the buildings and surrounding properties, all underground enclosures, beam lines and detector halls, utilities, and technical equipment normally handled and installed by subcontract labor, such as magnets, cable tray, and shielding.

12 Construction Activities and Quality Management Construction Activities (cont.) Electrical Carpentry Rigging Piping Systems Sheet Metal Roofing HVAC Concrete & Masonry Drilling Excavating Tunneling Operations Painting Insulating Conveying Systems Mechanical Systems Survey & Alignment Structural Work Fencing & Landscaping

13 Construction Activities and Quality Management Distinctions Between Types Of Construction Activities at Fermilab Direction of Labor by the Subcontractor; (i.e. Fixed Price) Direction of Labor by Fermilab; (i.e. Time & Material)

14 Construction Activities and Quality Management

15 Work Activities of Task Managers and Construction Coordinators Direction of Labor Design Drawings, Sketches, & Specifications Design Reviews Meetings Project/Task Schedule Documentation and Records ES&H Permits Procurements Code Compliance Environmental Inspection Daily Work Instructions and Assignments Field Directed Changes Testing Payment Authorization Conflict Resolution Quality Control & Assurance Controlling the Contract

16 Construction Activities and Quality Management Design, Drawings and Sketches, and Specifications Construction Coordinator Provided by Design Group Task Manager Provides expertise, design or input to design. Applies the “Work Smart Standards”. Provides specifications for work performed, materials, and equipment. Obtains DP-18 Review

17 Construction Activities and Quality Management Design Reviews Construction Coordinator Participates in design reviews of contract documents (drawings and specifications) Task Manager Initiates design reviews as necessary or as required by his/her division. DP-18 Reviews are required!

18 Construction Activities and Quality Management Purpose of Design Review Bidability Constructability Operability

19 Construction Activities and Quality Management Purpose of Design Review Bidability Ensure that the contract documents provided to the bidders are free of ambiguities and errors.

20 Construction Activities and Quality Management Purpose of Design Review Constructability Review the ease at which the design project can be built and; that the contract documents can be understood, administered, and enforced.

21 Construction Activities and Quality Management Purpose of Design Review Operability Review the contract documents for the ease at which the project/facility can be operated and maintained.

22 Construction Activities and Quality Management DP-18 Review A single line of management will be established for each construction project regardless of the number of phases involved and/or crossover of organization lines. Where different divisions/sections are responsible for individual phases of work, a memo of understanding will be generated by the organization holding the budget, clearly establishing line responsibilities and interfaces for project management and oversight including ES&H.

23 Construction Activities and Quality Management DP-18 Review Unless the director delegates the responsibilities to another organization for a specific project, FESS shall have the responsibility for all construction activities. Professional architectural and engineering principles shall be applied to the planning, design and construction of facilities and other structures at Fermilab. Contractors and Subcontractors shall be monitored by FESS personnel, or others as delegated by the director, to assure compliance with all applicable Fermilab policies and procedures, including ES&H requirements. The ES&H Section will independently oversee the performance of construction contractors and provide support to the FESS Construction Task Managers. The Associate Director for Operations Support will review all proposed building construction and modifications for sustainability and compliance with building and safety codes. The director or his deputy will review all modifications for aesthetic considerations. Building modifications are defined as any modification which modifies any structural element of the building, adds or removes additional interior walls, or modifies any of the existing high voltage electrical, HVAC, fire protection, sanitary sewer, potable water, or industrial water services. Review of technical equipment modifications is not included in this definition unless it necessitates modifying one of the above. FESS's Engineering & Planning Group will review any proposed modifications and report to the Associate Director for Operations Support.

Audits the subcontractor’s work activities to his plan. Assures subcontractor’s performance to the contract documents. Task Manager Responsible for quality per the contract documents and the “Work Smart Standards”. Documents the quality of the work performed.

70 Construction Activities and Quality Management Monitoring Quality “Three Phase Assurance” Preparatory Phase Initial Phase Follow-up Phase

71 Construction Activities and Quality Management Monitoring Quality “Three Phase Assurance” Preparatory Phase: Performed prior to the beginning of work on each definable feature. Each applicable paragraph in the specification is reviewed along with the contract plan. Assure that all materials and/or equipment have been tested, submitted and approved. Assure that all labor, materials and/or equipment are procured and available.

72 Construction Activities and Quality Management Monitoring Quality “Three Phase Assurance” Preparatory Phase “Checklist” assures: that the subcontractor understands the requirements of the contract, that there has been a flow down of information to sub-tier contractors, and that the subcontractor and sub-tier contractors are ready to perform the work.

73 Construction Activities and Quality Management Monitoring Quality “Three Phase Assurance” Initial Phase: Performed at the onset of work on the definable feature. Preliminary work must be checked. Compliance to the contract must be verified. Level of expected workmanship is established. Differences resulting from the above actions should be resolved. Review ES&H issues to assure compliance to the hazard analysis.

74 Construction Activities and Quality Management Monitoring Quality “Three Phase Assurance” Follow-up Phase: Performed after the work has been completed. Daily checks of work progress to assure compliance to the contract requirements. Progress checks are documented and made a matter of record. All deficiencies are corrected prior to moving on to the next phase of work.
