VolkerStevin was selected by the Environment Agency as one of only seven Contractors to undertake its National Capital Works Programme NCF 1 throughout England and Wales. We were one of only two contractors re-selected for the second term NCF 2, which runs until 2015.
The individual projects are allocated directly based on performance and generally comprise:
The programme is being administered using an open book approach with NEC Option C - Target Cost with Activity Schedule.
Our role includes Early Contractor Involvement during the design development and PAR preparation stages by functioning as an integrated team with the Client and Consultants giving advice on construction techniques, logistics, Quality, programming, environmental impact, Health & Safety mitigation measures and risk analysis.
We have also played an important role with the development and implementation of the Key Performance Indicators, which were tailored to suit the requirements of the programme. A detailed performance measurement system is in place, which is linked directly to both project Commercial and Programme level Incentivisation.
