1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
1.1. Objectives
blueVisions is pleased to submit this demonstration of capability in delivering major projects.
The fundamental benefits of blueVisions’ capability are highly advanced methodologies, supplemented with innovative use of data technology and employee expertise, providing unmatched risk aversion, budget adherence and schedule improvement. These assets are capable of providing world class Mineral Resource Project Management while maintaining industry leading lean labour costs.
The use of a SharePoint central gathering repository for all document sharing, combined with blueVisions’ advanced data management systems offer unparalleled project forecasting, monitoring and control. No competing rival offers these advanced metrics management tools at this level of cost implementation.
The key benefit that SharePoint provides as an online, web based tool is that it allows all project stakeholders and personnel to log-in from anywhere, at any time, and view project data, access blueVisions software tools, work on tasks or interact in project communications. This is truly an asset in today’s diverse working environment.
The use of blueVisions’ Shared Services Group is a key asset in driving project costs down. Instead of assigning full time staff to every project need, blueVisions utilises free man hours internally to accomplish activities based on a lower hourly rate than the typical project consultant brings when assigned directly. This flexibility allows for instant staffing in urgent need times when demand ramps up quickly and there is not time for a standard employment interview process. All members of the Shared Services Group are experts in their field and are available due to gaps between projects.
The company employs only as many project management staff as are vitally necessary at each stage of its projects. This philosophy of lean project staffing ensures that budgetary goals are stringently adhered to. The only way this can be accomplished is through the use of highly advanced data management systems, a deep corporate knowledge base and by the employment of expert professionals.
The commitment blueVisions makes to every client is that it places the client’s needs before its own. The blueVisions legacy was built one project at a time, and through the burgeoning referrals which followed. The corporate success record it has established is a valued asset that it dedicates itself to protecting on each new venture.

5. METHODOLOGY.
5.1. Background
blueVisions is an international project services organisation involved in the identify, select, define, execute and operate phases of projects in the Construction, Hydrocarbons, Minerals and Metals, Power and Infrastructure industries.
The services provided cover a range of activities: Detailed & Maintenance Engineering, Project Management Services, Procurement & Contracts, Logistics, Quality Control, Construction Management, Safety, Commissioning, Operations and Maintenance.
Characterising all of blueVisions’ activities is a strong focus on the use of its standard systems in conjunction with an approach based on deep relationships with clients and joint venture partners. The systems described in this section form the basis for the application of these tools at all levels within blueVisions. Although project delivery systems are interrelated and co-dependent, it is recognised that the skills and processes required to operate these tools will vary according to the context.
It is important that Project Managers are aware of the functionality of these project delivery system tools and are able to work with skilled operators to obtain the outcome required for the effective management of their projects. This guideline will attempt to provide the background information required for the Project Managers to be able to effectively use the blueVisions business systems to run their projects.
5.2. Project Management Process
The Project Management Process provides a common framework for project execution which is intended to be applied to all project activities throughout the organisation. This is a risk-based process for developing (and supporting) a Project Execution Plan that is suited to the needs of the project. They key determinants are:  Project Risk Classification;  Phase of Project;  Scope of Services.
PM Process aligns with the Project Delivery sections of blueVisions’ Integrated Management System and. as appropriate, references the procedures, guidelines and forms contained within IMS. Whilst the Project Management Process is consistent with and references IMS, it is not intended to override or replace IMS. It is still essential that IMS is referred to and complied with as appropriate.
The majority of the blueVisions’ Project Management Process content is useful guidance on project delivery best practice. Application of this guidance will be at the discretion of each project manager. It is not intended that the content be slavishly followed in a 'cook book' approach. It will continue to be expected that project personnel will apply best judgement regarding the extent of application of project management systems, depending on specific project circumstances.
Mandatory elements have been kept to a minimum and are clearly designated as such. The process has been designed to be scalable as a function of project size and risk. The larger, more complex projects would be expected to employ more of the Management Process elements than the smaller, more routine projects.

In other words, all projects are expected to be performed in accordance with the blueVisions’ Project Management Process, but much of the process is intended to provide guidance and serve as an aide. The requirements that are mandatory and auditable have been kept to a minimum.
Each project is required to have a Project Management Plan (PMP) and the requirements specific to the project will be captured in the PMP, including all mandatory blueVisions’ Project Management Process requirements. It is the PMP that is then auditable. The blueVisions’ Project Management Process is based on a phased / toll gated project life cycle model, consistent with the staged project delivery process.

5.4. Shared Services Group
The Shared Services Group (“SSG”) supports the core project leadership. This is an internal program designed to implement the full sophistication and technology of the blueVisions’ Project Management System into the early stages of project initiation through to the final stages, at cost effective rates.
The methodology that supports this is the blueVisions philosophy of maintaining strict control over Client billable hours at each critical initial stage, while still allowing flexible capacity to comfortably shoulder unforeseen burdens that arise.
This fluid, reactive method of staffing follows throughout the project life and allows blueVisions to provide much lower project overhead costs than industry standard. This asset is particularly crucial for projects which require significant project oversight to satisfy requirements, yet lack the greater structure to provide needed manpower on an ad hoc basis.
An additional benefit the Shared Services Group provides is full use of internal computer systems, project control software, bVToolbox, and other intellectual assets blueVisions maintains internally, during the early stages when the project office and management structure is not yet fully mature.
Example Project Shared Services Group needs:  Expert engineering  Oversight & monitoring  Planning & Cost Engineering  Document Management  Lifecycle IT needs  Financial & Accounting support  Design, implement, & monitor financial controls  HSE plan, and oversight  Safety Management  Quality Control of materials, installation, & construction  Contracts Management – Expert review of all goods & services contracts  Construction support roles  Human Resources  Recruitment of key position atrophy  Access to consultants familiar with the project

6. BLUEVISIONS’ DATA MANAGEMENT.
blueVisions use a selection of highly advanced data management tools to manage projects. These tools have a specific function to perform in the overall project management process.
Objectives  Project Deliverables Realised  Delivered on Time and Budget  All variances managed, explained, approved  Smooth predictable delivery throughout  Final Project Outcomes predicted well in advance
Most projects require the cohesive use of all these systems to ensure a positive outcome with certainty. The key risk that threatens potential success of this project is a lack of oversight into the cost and time performance of the contracts. If proper project management protocol is followed, most projects can be guided to a positive outcome.
It is vital that project owners minimise safety, environmental, litigation, late material, poor quality, failed contractor and contractual issues. Should these issues arise; the ownership group will be most protected by the security of the advanced integrated data management systems provided by blueVisions.
The key benefit we offer is early and accurate assessment. blueVisions’ unique model of proposed project management software systems will offer clear and proven cost savings over the project lifecycle. Utilising blueVisions Project Management Consultants means also utilising its valuable data resources.
Sharepoint is an exciting benefit of blueVisions. The complete data integration methodology the company promotes is of instant utility initially in the form of Sharepoint. This tool provides an immediate repository for organizing and controlling the growing document mass generated by new projects. Early implementation will prevent spiralling paperwork and data management problems. The combined software suite manipulated by blueVisions’ expert Project Managers will offer the key stakeholders unparalleled certainty, risk mitigation, and control.

The essential benefit that Sharepoint brings is the ability for diverse Shareholders in many different locations to maintain communication with the project, and to have 24 hour a day, 7 days a week access to live, up-to-date reporting. The combination of blueVisions’ advanced project cost control and forecasting software with the universal access and structure of Sharepoint, will bring the highest degree of visibility into the project that is possible using today’s technology.
blueVisions innovative, progressive project management methodology is enhanced by the use of these highly integrated methods of viewing data. What this means is that no data is lost, or ignored, and that all forecasting is based on current, nearly real time cost, finance and budget information. This high degree of interrelated efficiency eliminates the lag between when an crisis occurs, and when the project management team reacts to it. There will be no more spiralling out of control projects, with no answer as to reason, when using blueVisions uniquely modern approach.

8. DESIGN INTEGRITY & SYSTEMS
8.1. Safe and Sustainable Engineering for Asset Lifecycle (SEAL)
A key element of the execution strategy is to deliver a design that can be detailed such that it is safer to build, safer to operate, safer to decommission I dispose of and provides an appropriate sustainable solution.
The blueVisions SEAL model and underlying principals will be utilised to deliver this objective and reference shall be made to the SEAL documentation in IMS for this.
The SEAL model is comprised of the three distinct and interrelated processes; Technical Integrity (TI), Safety in Design (SID) and Sustainable Design (SD).
The foundation elements are a committed and common culture, strong safety, risk and environmental leadership and professional development of the people
Technical Integrity
Technical Integrity (TI) refers to activities undertaken during project design that ensure the design conforms to customer requirements and the relevant internal and statutory design codes and requirements. Conformance with these requirements typically results in operational and technical parameters that provide a reasonable or minimum acceptable level of safety.
A key task centred element of this is the checking and approval processes and the Peer reviews, design reviews and audit activities of the project.
Safety in Design
Safety in Design (SID) is the set of activities defined under an overarching process that include the integration of hazard identification and risk assessment methods early on in the design development. This creates opportunities to eliminate or minimise asset lifecycle risks through design efforts and ultimately deliver safer design solutions. Safe design should also incorporate human factors and consider human error and ergonomic principles.
The actual approach to managing the hazards and risks will vary from situation to situation but, in general, attempts should be made to eliminate or minimise the source of hazard rather than place too high a reliance on control and mitigating measures. This is termed inherent safety.
Key elements of the safety in design process will include the range of safety studies and design activities listed (e.g. HAZID, HAZOP, fire and explosion analysis, as well as the associated activities of the other disciplines such as safety system design, electrical fault current calculations and hazardous area design issues). The documentation of safety in design principals and philosophies to be applied for each discipline shall form part of the disciplines "design philosophy' documents which will also act to inform individual engineers and designers of the safety in design controls they are to implement.
SEAL principles are aligned with the following key contributors for achieving a safe design.
Persons with Control - Engineers, designers and decision makers have a broad awareness of the hazards and risks early on and are able to promote health and safety at the source. This creates significant opportunities to provide an inherently safer design particular during early stages of design.

35
Asset Lifecycle - Design efforts consider every stage in the lifecycle from conception through to disposal, i.e. Design, Manufacture, Construction / Installation, Commissioning, Operation (normal, abnormal and emergency), Maintenance, Future Modifications, Decommissioning / Abandonment and Disposal. Consultation with individuals or groups involved in the lifecycle of the product is essential e.g. procurement, construction, operations etc
Early Hazard Awareness and Systematic Approach to Risk Management - Hazard identification and risk assessment processes are applied early on and active throughout the project. Planning of detailed safety studies, assessments and design reviews to provide timely and balanced input into the design. Risk registers are considered to be a significant design driver and design goals used to inform hazard management strategies.
Informed Decision Making -Decisions are open, transparent and soundly based. Decision basis for design decisions that may have an impact on safety are appropriate. Safety goals used to discriminate between competing concepts and inform decisions.
Design Knowledge, Capability and Communication - Competent engineering and design staff work to unambiguous procedures with effective cross discipline coordination.
Sustainable Design
During the design phase of a project, decisions are made that affect the sustainability of the client’s business and the natural environment. It is essential that design decisions consider the full lifecycle of the asset and designers and engineers have an adequate understanding of the asset lifecycle hazards and risks (environment and community) relating to their design efforts. As such environmental risks will be considered in risk activities and design execution.
