Project Management
At M3FLOODTEC we understand that flexibility is fundamental and a “one size fits all” does not provide best value. Each project is bespoke and our technical staff together with project management will work as a seamless delivery team with our Clients - be it the EA or a major UK or International contractor.
Client Liaison
Scheduled Client meetings are essential to effective project management from feasibility through design and to construction completion. In the case of community projects experience confirms that early stakeholder involvement is fundamental to successful delivery.
M3FLOODTEC will engage with our Clients to develop a community liaison plan as a key deliverable against the project milestones.
Client Progress Reporting
Effective communication is a key driver to any project and our staff have extensive experience from past construction projects both small as well as large all around the Globe. Commitment to providing accurate information, on time is a priority driver for our project management staff.
Survey, Installation & Testing
For commercial and infrastructure projects advanced surveys may be required, M3 Floodtec in conjunction with specialist designers are able to arrange this to ensure all of the potential risks are considered to protect against the effects of a flood.
Surveys
Our surveys will identify the areas of risk and the mitigation measures available, some of which may use off the shelf products and others may require a bespoke design. In all cases our technicians will seek to develop passive solutions where minimal intervention would be required to manage the risks of flood inundation.
Installation
M3 Floodtec management are able to oversee installations and to ensure that products are constructed and installed to the correct specification and have developed comprehensive onsite testing procedures to demonstrate the correct operation of all product under flood conditions.
Site Management, Training & Maintenance
Site Management
We appreciate the importance of efficient site management in both the successful delivery of a project and the management of client expectation.
M3 Floodtec will dedicate a single point of contact on all projects to maintain the strong lines of communication at all stages of project delivery and to maintain continuity between the different elements in the overall development from initial concept to final handover.
Training & Maintenance
The distinct advantage of passive flood mitigation is that active maintenance is minimal, often only requiring a yearly inspection.
Our specialist technical staff will ensure that clear and concise explanation on all products is delivered as part of the overall project plan as well as providing detailed technical documentation and specification literature on all products. To ensure effective long term operation of each product appropriate maintenance undertaken in accordance with the recommendations is crucial.
Typically a maintenance regime will be developed at design stage and incorporated into the overall project plan and safety case. Our technical staff will provide the necessary data to support this.
Quality Standards
We place great importance in ongoing client care, although a comprehensive training and education program will have been implemented our commitment is to maintain communication with all Clients as the whole lifecycle of a project develops, as and when required.
Health & Safety
M3 Floodtec will provide the necessary technical data for incorporation into the Construction Phase H&S plans, Risk Assessment, Method Statements, to provide CDM compliance at all stages of the project.
Quality Control
Only products holding Kitemark PAS 1188-1:2014 are used where possible or where products have got a Kitemark scope that can be used.
Quality Management Systems
M3 Floodtec will work with existing Quality Management Systems to ensure that correct procedure is maintained at all times.
