WE OFFER OUR CUSTOMERS CONSTANT SUPERVISION OF CONSTRUCTION SITE AND STRICT ECONOMIC CONTROL AT EVERY PHASE OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF BUILDING CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS

The expertise we deploy in this  area ensure our customers constant supervision of the construction site during each phase of project implementation, and allows us to carry out rigorous financial and economic control so that the objectives and results identified during planning and design are met.

Work supervisor assists and supervises the progress of the project on site, ensuring the smooth execution, in accordance with the design and standards, giving appropriate instructions when necessary. In fact, during the execution of the work, the client has the right to “supervise the progress of the work and check its status at his own expense” (Art. 1662 of the Civil Code) and this right can be exercised personally or through a professional appointed and defined as work supervisor. 

His role is central to the execution of works and its task is to verify the exact execution of works, the quality of materials and workmanship. To do this, he can make use of digital information management methods and tools: the BIM approach, in fact, allows them interoperability with tools related to computerization of works accounting management. Our long experience and expertise in this area therefore allows us to offer the Client (or the contracting station) so-called “4D” and “5D” digital information modeling, which takes into account the chronological aspects and those related to the accounting of works.

The work supervisor, in fact, is responsible for the technical, accounting and administrative control, as well as the execution of the intervention so that the work is carried out in a workmanlike manner and in accordance with the project and the contract. In addition, he/she talks exclusively with the executor regarding the technical and economic aspects of the contract, checking and verifying compliance with the execution time of the work indicated in the schedule attached to the executive project and subsequently detailed in the work execution program.

During the execution phase, the duties of the construction supervisor include:

• acceptance of materials
• verification of compliance with company’s obligations
• accounting of the works
• management of variants;
• management of reserves
• suspension of work
• claims management.

Depending on the complexity of the project, in order to assist the construction manager, a construction supervision office may be established, consisting of one or more operations managers and site inspectors, to which other professionals with expertise in information technology may be added.

The construction supervisor may be assisted by:

• The Operations Manager is an assistant to works director with whom he or she collaborates to verify that the work to be carried out is carried out regularly and in compliance with the terms of the contract. He or she must see to the updating of the general and detailed schedule of the work, assist the director of works and the inspectors during acceptance operations, review and approve the schedule of acceptance tests and commissioning of facilities, and, finally, direct specialized work.

• The site inspector is responsible for supervising the works in compliance with the requirements established in the special tender specifications. In addition, he or she may carry out a range of activities such as inspecting supplies of materials and, prior to commissioning, verifying that materials, equipment and facilities have passed the testing stages prescribed by quality control, applicable regulations, or the contractual requirements under which they were constructed. It also supervises the activities of subcontractors and the proper execution of the work (with regard to drawings and contractual technical specifications), as well as assisting with laboratory tests, acceptance of the work, and commissioning and acceptance tests of the facilities. Last but not least, it manages the preparation of accounting records and execution of measurements once instructed by the construction manager and provides adequate assistance to the execution coordinator.

We also carry out the activity of Safety Coordinator in the Design Phase (CSP) and Safety Coordinator in the Execution Phase (CSE) according to D. Lgs.81/08 as amended.

Accounting of works is carried out using  specific electronic tools (computerized work accounting), which use interoperable platforms by means of non-proprietary open formats, in order not to restrict competition among technology providers. These tools ensure maximum authenticity, security of the data entered and its provenance from the relevant parties.
