Prime contractor

On the other hand, the NDT service business has evolved towards a more open market, in which the prime contractor requires a transparent access to the data provided by the supplier, in order to ensure the comparison of data obtained from different sources and at different periods of time. Existing fomiats are most of the time proprietary formats released by instrument manufacturers, generally dealing with a unique NDT method and not including complementary information on the acquisition consequently, they fail to meet these requirements.

No matter if subcontractors are working for a general or main contractor or working directly for the client, when two or more prime contractors conduct activities at the same worksite, it is prudent that a common basis for health and safety rules and controls be established. Wlien one contractor performs an intrusive activity that increases the hazard level for all workers at a worksite, that information should be communicated to other contractors to permit them to plan and control their activities accordingly.

To make sure that all contractors and subcontractors maintain a minimum level of safety performance, the client, or general or main contractor, should establish standards for compliance. During the project planning stage, affected prime contractors should have an opportunity to provide input and resolve differences. Cross-cut committees are encouraged to allow prime contractors to standardize or normalize such essential elements as procedures, permit systems, and training. 

Medical surveillance programs range from support contracts with local hospitals or physicians to full-scale on-site occupational health organizations that include physicians, nurses, and technicians who are employed by prime contractors. The option selected depends on the size of the project, the nature of the hazards involved, the capabilities of local facilities, and the resources available. 

Although we will be providing the site and site location, we will not be identifying prime contractors or sub-contractors. 

The prime contractor s SSAHPs for Sites D, E, and G and the subcontractor s SSAHP for Site I did not contain detailed discussions of specific work tasks to be performed by employees or the hazards associated with those tasks. As a result, SOPs associated with each job or task had not been prepared. 

At Site I, the prime contractor s SSAHP required daily site inspections, the documentation of safety and health deficiencies, and the abatement of deficiencies. Records of site deficiencies, however, were kept intermittently, and hazard abatement was not documented. The subcontractor s SSAHP did not address site inspections and hazard abatement, but its TSCA permit application included requirements for site inspections. Inspection documentation, however, was not available on site, and the site manager was unaware of these written requirements. The site manager did, however, indicate that he conducted site inspections using a mental checklist and that he conducted inspections of remediation equipment before each use. 

The regional contract administrators (purchasing department or others, depending on the structure of the organization) will provide the prime contractor flow-down provisions for incorporation into solicitation and subcontractors purchase orders. 

The confluence of sharply rising Operations and Maintenance (O M) costs. NRC requested Individual Plant Examinations (IPEs) and increased personal computer capabilities gave rise to the R R Workstation. Its uses and maintains-current PSA models and databases for individual plants to perform O M planning and scheduling, and uses the PSA in IPE models to identify plant design, procedure and operational vulnerabilities. The Risk and Reliability Workstation Alliance was organized by EPRI to support the R R Workshop in order to achieve O M cost reduction, plant productivity and safety enhancement through risk-based, user-friendly, windowed software louls (Table 3.6 8). The Alliance, initiated in 1992, includes 25 U.S. utilities and four international partners from Spain, France, Korea, and Mexico. SAIC is the prime contractor for the R R Workstation, with participation of five other PSA vendors.

Project cost control procednres and contract incentives should be included in every CDP contract as a proven means of reducing and controlling costs. Indnstry practices have shown that better project performance is achieved when incentives are positive and when they flow down, that is, when they are shared by the prime contractor with snb-contractors, suppliers, and in appropriate cases, individual managers and craftsmen (CII, 1992).

Laboratory Techniques. In addition to the previous research programs which address the personnel and management information needs of forensic science laboratories, the National Institute is funding research to improve instrumentation and analytical techniques applied to the analysis of physical evidence. The Aerospace Corporation of El Segundo, California, and the Law Enforcement Standards Laboratory of the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) have served as prime contractors to the Institute in the laboratory technique area. Although space does not permit a complete discussion of all projects underway at Aerospace and NBS, I will describe two project areas which are of great interest to forensic science practitioners and researchers.
