Umfang:

Bilfinger UK's Wind Power department were awarded a Framework Agreement Contract with the client for the supply of technicians to cover multiple services for all of their UK offshore and onshore wind farms.

We were asked to assist with the repair and maintenance of lifts and cranes as the incumbent supplier was falling behind in regard to undertaking both inspection, repair and maintenance elements. The client was under pressure to have these assets working appropriately, so to enable the many other contractors that needed access to the wind turbine generators to undertake their particular scope of works.

Requirements

Complete the campaign with zero incidents
Integrate working with the incumbent supplier
Clear a back-log of M&R which was only at 10% completed at the time
Complete the full M&R campaign scope within the baselined schedule duration
Maintain the scope within the approved budget

Leistungen:

Given the variety of the inspections required by the client, Bilfinger UK completed the scope utilising a small multi-skilled team consisting of NDT-ANDT, Coatings (NACE qualified) Technicians confined space/rescue trained to fulfil the all scopes. The reason we were able to complete the scope on time with so few personnel, was due to Bilfinger UK having a large pool of highly trained technicians from which to deploy. The client stated that this scope in the past was undertaken by three different suppliers.

Added value:

Zero incidents reported throughout the project
Scope completed within the allocated time
One supplier completing multiple scopes resulting in less interfaces for client
Less inductions for client to undertake
Cost savings
Consistency of teams/personnel
