What is EPC project? How to do a good job of EPC project management?

Introduction: What is the EPC project?What is the meaning of EPC project? How to do a good job of EPC project management? In order to let you have a clearer understanding of what is the EPC project, the world factory network editorial will be popularized in the following a little about the EPC project management of some basic knowledge. What is the EPC project from the Baidu encyclopedia: EPC English meaning: Engineer, Procurement, Construct head of the alphabetical abbreviation. EPC project in Chinese means that a project is responsible for the "design, procurement, construction", and usually referred to as general contracting meaning similar. EPC project that is, general contracting enterprises in accordance with the contract, undertake the project design, procurement, construction, commissioning services and other work, and the contracted project quality, safety, schedule, cost is fully responsible for. The design here refers to the design of the mechanism and process of machines, equipment, devices, systems, etc. according to the scientific and engineering principles of manufacturing and processing. It is not the design of the space and function of the building. In layman's terms, EPC project is equivalent to a project all done outsourcing. How to do a good job of EPC project management Knowing what is EPC project hair, then how to do a good job of EPC project management?EPC project procurement management is a series of management activities taken to achieve the project objectives under the conditions of limited resources. Generally should be considered from the owner's point of view of EPC construction mode, you can start from these three aspects: (1) the owner's purpose and professional ability, if not professional, EPC mode is a viable model (2) EPC and the advantages and disadvantages of the traditional DBB mode (3) cost and control of the project. This is a strategic level consideration, and the tactical level also needs to be considered. In addition, these problems are encountered in the construction design of EPC projects: (1) 1. Selection of design unit When selecting a design unit for an EPC project, the design unit is generally based on the actual situation of the project location and the implementation plan determined by the preliminary market research to consider comprehensively, and to select an appropriate design partner. (2) Convergence with local specifications The best way should be to combine Chinese and local design institutes together, **** the same design, and settle the differences and disagreements in the primary stage of the design through negotiation, instead of completing the design in Chinese design institutes and modifying it after the local design institutes have found out the problems. (3) Convergence with the implementation program determined in the research stage Since EPC projects generally determine the implementation program before proceeding to the construction design according to the local market and other conditions, it is necessary to consider how to converge to the determined implementation method and construction program during the design, and facilitate the construction as much as possible while meeting the functional requirements. (4) Confirmation of materials and equipment in the design The construction design of the EPC project should be approved and confirmed by the owner or the owner's authorized unit. Material Procurement Implementation to Pay Attention Material procurement is one of the important steps in the implementation of EPC project, which directly affects the implementation and cost of the project.The key procedures of material procurement for EPC project include: formulation of procurement plan, determination of quality standards of materials and equipment, selection of suppliers, and arrival of materials and equipment. In addition to the necessary human resources, the execution of project procurement must also have the corresponding equipment, facilities, raw materials, parts, services and other material resources. In terms of material procurement, EPC projects are different from construction general contracting projects in the following two points: first, there is no Party A supplying materials. Part of the procurement which is the responsibility of Party A in the usual construction general contract is the responsibility of the contractor in EPC projects, and this aspect of procurement and installation needs to be considered in advance. On the other hand, the determination of quality standards and design is interactive, compared with the general contracting project, the choice of materials and equipment has more space.
