Project & Construction Management
A construction plan is developed and outlines how construction will be achieved, controlled and managed. The construction plan key elements are communicated to all key personnel, subcontractors and employees in a pre-construction meeting. As the project precedes task planning and construction meetings are used to communicate expectations of the project to key personnel, subcontractors and employees. All personnel engaged on projects (supervisors and employee / sub-contractors) will be prompted of their responsibilities and accountabilities that contribute through the induction process. The effective implementation of construction programs, drawings and technical specifications will be the responsibility of the Operations Manager, Systems Manager and supervisors to see that the Ward Bros crews and Sub Contractors assume their responsibility.
