11. Strategic Framework : Health & Safety Priority Theme
Preventing accidents, raising the bar
Safe working - ODAs number one priority
Set a standard
Leadership - SHELT
Briefings, black hat conventions, stand downs, recognition for good
practise
and promoting health
Park Health – occupational health and treatment services, such as
health checks for every worker by nurses and other trained staff
through an on-site medical facility
Monitoring dust and noise levels to prevent any negative health
impacts on workforce and local residents
Education programme across the boroughs to teach local children how
to stay safe near construction sites
13. Delivery Partner
• Rapid mobilisation of delivery capability–
given the time constraints, the ODA would
not be able to build the requisite
organisation internally, or have the
required flexibility to match the programme
needs with the required skills.
• In August 2006, following a competitive
dialogue process, the ODA appointed CML
– a consortium formed from CH2MHill,
Laing O‟Rourke and Mace as delivery
partner.
•Programme and project management of
scope on the Olympic Park, including
integrated commercial management of
ODA supply chain with programme and
project controls .
14. DP : critical factors
• ODA intelligent client
• Clarity of roles and responsibilities
client and DP
DP and contractors
• Building the partnership
