Industrial Project Management Requires Commitment And Knowledge!

Industrial Project Management seems like a lucrative term and indeed it is however it requires deep knowledge and expertise. While we may think that because it is our project, who else will know it better than us but when you actually start doing it, the need for full time dedication arises. The conception of a project happens when you think about an idea post which you need to give proper shape to it.

Tasks such as estimation and allocation of resources, scheduling, project task coordination, procurement assistance, and mechanical and electrical bid requests are a part of the project management process. While doing a project you also need to do risk management and take care of the quality management aspect. Apart from this you are required to control the project execution, implement a management information system, forecast future trends through the project and instill ways of preventing defects.

Electrical and design controls is a separate area altogether that includes responsibilities of process control, doing single line diagrams, preparing layouts, programming and peripheral equipment interfacing. Some on-site services also need to be taken care of such as field management, equipment check-out and systems start-up. Site selection and market research are two other areas that require expert guidance and complete dedication.

An important aspect of project management is information about subsidies being provided by the government. That's because a project demands huge capital and if you have someone to pay up to 50% of your expenditure, then what else can you ask for! The government has introduced various subsidies and schemes to promote growth and expansion of various sectors. Some of the existing benefits in the manufacturing and industrial sector are of up to Rs. 40 crore each in Plastic, Textile and Leather Park. You can also avail a help of up to Rs. 60 crore for Industrial Park and up to Rs. 17 crore for Small Scale Industries.

Another activity that asks for time, effort and knowledge is the process of taking the required approvals. This includes industrial zoning, water and power approvals, and approvals equivalent to Industrial Development Corporation. Along with this you also need to concentrate on land development and acquisitions if that's the requirement. Registration, taxation and funding are few other duties involved in this process.

Not to be forgotten, project management process also involves the project marketing activity. Here you need to do tasks such as gap analysis of demand and supply, market share and revenue forecasting, pricing and penetration strategy, and option creation and evaluation for marketing mix.

While some of the activities talked about above may sound very simple and easy going however even one miss can cost a lot as every aspect of industrial project management has huge relevance. So a full time committed team is a must for a successful project, especially when you spend so much on it.

The Importance of Safety Training Programs for Contractors and Developers

Rapid globalization means more construction projects are going up every day. In turn, more contractors and developers are venturing into the construction industry. If you are interested in doing the same, it is important for you and your personnel to receive the corresponding OSHA training courses.

Why are safety training programs important?

Most people think these courses are only good to ensure the security of the workplace. This is only its primary and most obvious benefit. It is also important for a range of other reasons. The following are some examples why you should engage in such activities.

Increased Competence

Many startup firms are venturing into the construction industry. Increased competition can result in fewer projects. This is when OSHA certification becomes especially important. Official certification puts your firm a step ahead of the others. Such courses also contribute to the streamlining of operations. A certified workplace is something to brag about and is a major card when marketing your firm to provide construction services.

The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 requires workplaces of all sizes to take action towards ensuring a safe work environment. Although this is the case, OSHA training courses are voluntary and not required by law. Prove reliability to your customers simply by having expert personnel who comply with standards.

Cost Effectiveness

Workplace accidents may cost you a great amount of money. With insurance premiums skyrocketing, you need to avoid mishaps at all costs. Having personnel who are aware of the different risks will help decrease the possibility of potential incidents. Although you still have to invest in insurance, a well-informed team is your first safety net against accidents.

Training is also cost-effective in the sense that you do not have to send every employee. You can send a group to receive training, get them certified, and have them provide future programs for other employees.

Training Program Categories

There are two categories for Occupational Safety and Health Administration or OSHA training courses: the 10 and 30-hour classes. Each of these will provide your personnel with the necessary information. You can seek such programs directly from OSHA or through training specialists. These specialists undergo extensive training before receiving authorization to provide services to others. Some reliable firms offer other kinds of safety training programs as well.

The 10-hour classes covers the basics. It includes discussions regarding safety, health hazards, and accident prevention. Certified instructors teach courses specific to two different areas of study: general industry and construction. These safety training programs are best suited for onsite personnel - especially construction workers, and consultants.30-hour classes go into more detail, as it examines various policies, procedures, and standards. These are more pertinent for supervisors and project managers.

Choose training providers who cater specifically to your field of work. Extensive experience in the industry is important because safety training is a serious issue. Tenured providers will have more insight, and training from them may be more informative. Go for trainers who teach more than just safety. Check online for a comprehensive listing of providers in your area.

Another great means of finding one would be to ask colleagues in the industry. Areas of specialization to look out for include scaffolding setup and dismantling, as well as other onsite safety training programs. Be a better contractor or developer simply by getting the right safety training.

Tips for Cleaning Up Your Construction Site

As winter gives way to spring, you can be sure that there will still be some tough weather and storms to overcome. After all, we are not out of the woods yet. Early spring storms will still roll in and make a mess of any working construction site. And whether you a construction site crew member or it is your job to keep everything running and moving smoothly, inclement weather during a construction job can prove to be incredibly stressful, annoying, and tedious. While you have many things on your professional plate at any given time, one of your main concerns should be construction site safety.

The first step to having a safe working construction site is to make sure the grounds are clean and free from trash and garbage. While this may seem trivial, it is an easy step to secure and it can make a big difference in the running and completing of the construction gig. And remember, this isn't a one-man or one-woman job. Involve your entire construction crew and everyone on-site to assist in the clean up. Once it is clean, remind everyone to pick up after themselves throughout the day and before they leave for the day. This ensures that your construction site will remain clean and not become something like a garbage pit again.

The second part of protecting your construction project and your crew is to teach and review all procedures, policies, guidelines, and rules that need to be followed on your site. Talk about what to do if there is an accident, spill, excess pollution, or an injury. Preparedness will only help you and your crew stay safe and your site remain in compliance. If you ever feel that your crew is not following the official policies and procedures, do not hesitate to hold another meeting. The more you do, the better they will remember that information in the future. And if they don't, another meeting is on the way. That alone should entice their strict compliance.

Next, make sure your construction project has the necessary equipment, which is more than just the large machinery. It also includes curb and inlet filters. These necessary and beneficial filters stop debris and unnecessary sediment from clogging drains and from getting into unfiltered water supplies. With these three steps, you will be sure to have a safer construction plan put into place. Construction site safety is not something to be taken lightly, especially with all the potential fines and lawsuits. You are in charge of your site & your crew, and this is one way to keep them safe and properly cared for, not to mention your business reputation.
