Partnering WSP – NCC – Swedish Transport Administration
36. THE BASIC IDEA OF PARTNERING
Based on shared values and objectives creates client, contractor and the
designer an integrated project organization with clear incentives for all
parties. If the targets are met, a win-win situation is achieved for everyone.
The project may be a creative environment with constant information and
knowledge exchange, leading to a more efficient design and construction.
The end product has a higher quality at a lower total cost.
37. DEVELOPMENT OF THE INDUSTRY
The constant information and knowledge exchange, leads to commitment
and a learning environment in which all parties to develop and improve.
The common aim is always to make things "more efficient".
This leads to the development of industry and gaining respect / trust in
society and future generations of society developers.
38. DESIGN IN COLLABORATION
In partnering, the contractor actively participate in the designers work to
create construction documents for the selection of the design methods and
technical solutions as well as review and comment on the documents.
This gives the contractor early a good understanding of the site and the
ability to add a "production thinking" in the design.
39. WHY PARTNERING IN THE CITY LINE PROJECT?
Complex layout
Complex connections with the underground lines
User impact, noise, vibration, shutdowns
Hotel
Existing tunnels for cables and water & sewerage
Cultural interests
Overall, a very large risk exposure
40. WHY PARTNERING IN THE CITY LINE PROJECT? (cont.)
The preliminary design was performed by three different consultant
companies with varying degree of completion.
The conditions for the contract were not clear and contained numerous
uncertainties and inherent risks
Unclear requirements made it difficult to design rigorous and consistent
construction documents
In order to balance project risks and keep the option to continue optimization
and still obtain competitive tenders, the partnering model is a prerequisite.
41. BENEFITS OF PARTNERING
Early start of construction of large complex projects with built-in risks or
uncertainties
Possible to process / optimize / streamline during construction
Learning and development process
All three parties feel a shared responsibility for the construction documents
42. DESIGNING FOR A MORE EFFICIENT PRODUCTION
IN THE CITY LINE PROJECT
Success factors:
Important to man with the right resources. The whole concept of partnering
is based on mutual trust. If we don’t have trust, the cooperation will be
difficult.
The client must have a competent design manager with mandate to make
decisions and has experiences from production.
Good and clear communication with the audit organization and supervisory
parties.
The contractor's design developer must have experience in both design and
construction.
If the planning and production are carried out in parallel, careful attention
should be paid coordinated delivery and production schedules.
43. DESIGNING FOR A MORE EFFICIENT PRODUCTION IN
THE CITY LINE PROJECT
Continued ..... Success Factors:
Construction documents, which only present requirements and / or clarify the
requirements in relation to the recommendations.
Transparency and teamwork between the parties is of utmost importance.
Individuals who can not make it, must be replaced.
Informality in collaborative problem solving. Hard to call, but important to get
an optimal technical solution.
Co-location simplifies the daily information and knowledge exchange. The
extent of this co-location will be dependent on the type of project.
Useful tools were developed and established, e.g. drainage strategy,
grouting strategy and intrusion
44. DESIGNING FOR A MORE EFFICIENT PRODUCTION IN
THE CITY LINE PROJECT
Continued ..... Success Factors:
Surrender meetings, where the designer presents the documents and clarify
the essential requirements and risks.
Adding a lot of energy on communicating the message of collaboration in the
mission early in the project.
The management of the assignment and the Project management must
accept the interaction message to 100%.
Collaboration efforts must support the need for production planning must be
gradually revised.
Designing has been conducted according to the “Observation method” EN
1997-1 (Eurocode 7). This approach provides maximum leverage in this
approach "design in collaboration“.
