Transport - Construction Supervision
Construction Supervision is necessary to:
ensure the works are constructed in accordance with the design and
specification, safeguard the quality of construction, oversee the
safety of the works, and when required, to provide a
cost-monitoring service to the client. The role varies
depending on the contract e.g. re-measure, Design & Build
(D&B), Design, Build, Finance & Operate (DBFO), and Early
Contractor Involvement (ECI) and whether our client is the Employer
or the Contractor.
Where our client is the Employer Scott Wilson
is engaged to administer all aspects of the contract in force
between him and the contractor. Where our client is the
Contractor, Scott Wilson will undertake an auditing role to ensure
compliance with the design. The range of services offered is
tailored to match the scope of works and the client’s
requirements. They may include:
- Provision on site of a: Resident Engineer,
Employer’s Site Representative or Designer’s Site, Representative
augmented by other engineering and environmental staff as
necessary,
- Auditing the Contractor’s construction for
compliance with the design and/or specification,
- Limited modification of the design,
- Quality and Environment Management,
- Construction Design Management (CDM)
statutory compliance,
- Technical inspection of materials and
workmanship,
- Monitoring of contractor’s planning,
programme and progress,
- Advice to the Employer on matters of
contract, payment and liability,
- Reporting and As-Built records.
- Maintenance and Defect Period Monitoring
The supervision role may also include acting
as the Designer and/or the Engineer and frequently this requires
Scott Wilson to have in place additional office-based resources to
support the site team.
The global structure of Scott Wilson enables
us to offer the most appropriate and cost-effective team for
supervising infrastructure projects in the rail, road, airport or
maritime environment. Regardless of geographic location,
language or culture we can place specialist international staff or
local experts on short or long-term assignment.
