Construction Planning and Scheduling At the tender / contract development stage, TME will review the Client supplied Schedule, to ensure that our constructability schedule will align with the schedule agreed to with the Client. Where there is a change in milestone dates, TME will immediately discuss with the Client any material effect this may have on the Project, and if so, what the requirements are to ensure adherence to the timeframe as outlined in the original schedule. The TME Capital Works Supervisor, in conjunction with the Team Supervisors, shall compile daily work records, which shall be aligned with the schedule, and presented at Client Progress Meetings.

72. Our Delivery Approach (continued) Quality Assurance As part of the construction process, TME shall develop a Project Quality Management Plan, which will operate in conjunction with the Project Execution Plan. Both plans shall be submitted to the Client or approval prior to implementation, and all relevant personnel shall receive a comprehensive briefing as to the content and operation of the plans. TME has achieved and operates in accordance with ISO 9001:2008, and ensures strict compliance with the relevant Australian or International standard or code for work procedures. All document control is managed in accordance with the above standards, and is kept both on-site and in a central, off-site location for back-up and security purposes. Any variations to the original Scope of Works or Contract shall be approved prior to commencement of the task, with copies of all approvals being submitted as part of the invoicing procedure. Cost Engineering TME has the capacity to secure the best value from a project by considering the whole range of cost and risk inputs. We bring an inherent understanding, gained through experience, of the costs of particular projects, from our experience in project delivery. TME utilise Project and Cost Engineering personnel to ensure that all project costs are captured. TME provides full transparency for reimbursable contracts, during which our Cost Engineer will monitor all captured costs, and manage this on behalf of the client. Document Control TME maintains our Document Control section to the highest standard, with our Document Control Manager ensuring that full levels of traceability are available, in accordance with both our quality procedures and the client’s specific requirements. TME’s document control system ensures that each project is maintained with the appropriate levels of authority so as to enable full client confidence that both security and uniformity have been maintained. TME uses a modern document control management system, allowing the TME Project Document Control Specialist to remain the Gatekeeper of project documentation, so that the flow of information is controlled, recorded and has fast delivery.
