Abstract
The article describes the importance of construction supervision by a Developer (EPCM Contractor) as an effective tool for reducing potential risks when implementing investment and construction projects. In general, the paper describes the practice of hiring construction supervisors, the need for an integrated, systemic approach to the work acceptance process. The proposed integrated verification supervision method includes Contractor’s laboratory data confirmation in order to optimize and improve the control functions. The method was analyzed using existing statistical techniques. The paper suggests ways for determining quality and quantity characteristics of sampling (verification supervision) from the general totality (Contractor’s initial supervision) while observing the representativeness condition.
Highlights
When implementing various investment projects in the Russian Federation, regardless of funding sources, a Developer is obligated to carry out construction supervision using its own resources or to get a specialist organization to do the job
We offer to work out the methodological normative and technical base for Construction Supervision Service, taking into account the functions of the geodesic center and testing laboratory to validate the quality and quantity of materials, components and finished products for construction
Assume the final general totality including set of homogeneous facts of measurements of a controlled parameter of construction products performed in a laboratory of the General Contractor, allowing assessment and usage thereof in the executive documentation
Summary
When implementing various investment projects in the Russian Federation, regardless of funding sources, a Developer is obligated to carry out construction supervision using its own resources or to get a specialist organization to do the job. A Developer, not being a specialist on industrial and civil construction, in accordance with the requirements of the Town Planning Code, has to authorize the specialized EPCM contractor’s service (a legal entity or an individual) to perform control on its behalf of all construction and investment process, from preparation of detailed design documentation to final commissioning. It is in the interests of an EPCM contractor that the authors of this paper have decided to develop an integrated construction supervision technique, one that would allow the control function to be optimized and improved.
