Greensborough & Keon Park Substation Prefab Buildings

Project Name: Greensborough and Keon Park Substation Prefab Buildings
Location: Melbourne

Scope of Work

The project involved the design, manufacture, delivery, and onsite erection and installation of prefabricated buildings for the Greensborough and Keon Park substations. The scope of work included the complete fit-out and pre-commissioning of all internal equipment, as well as the design, delivery, and installation of surrounding platforms, handrails, and cable supports.

Project Details
  1. Design and Manufacture:
    • SRS Power was responsible for the comprehensive design and manufacture of the prefabricated buildings.
    • This included ensuring the buildings’ weight was safe for lifting, handling, transportation, and final placement on site.
    • Design and supply the skirting panel all around the building.
  2. Offsite Fit-out:
    • Part of the buildings’ fit-out was completed offsite to streamline the installation process.
    • Pre-commissioning of all internal equipment was conducted to ensure operational readiness.
  3. Onsite Activities:
    • SRS Power completed all onsite activities in accordance with the construction program, accommodating any changes as needed.
    • Interfaces with civil contractors and other necessary parties were managed to ensure seamless integration with existing site measures and requirements.
    • Installation of skirting panel onsite.
  4. Design Reviews and Changes:
    • SRS Power allowed for costs associated with design reviews until Issued for Construction (IFC) status, including minor design changes post-IFC to avoid constructability issues.
  5. Material Handling and Responsibility:
    • SRS Power managed the handling, storage, and installation of all supplied materials, taking full responsibility for these materials upon receipt.
  6. Transportation:
    • The contractor accounted for all transportation costs, including compliance with VicRoads and council requirements, ensuring safe and timely delivery.
  7. Site Delivery and Installation:
    • The Greensborough substation building was delivered and installed successfully. 
    • The Keon Park substation was delivered and installed successfully.
Outcome

This project showcased the SRS Power’s proficiency in handling intricate prefabrication and installation processes. The prefabricated buildings were successfully delivered and installed on schedule, fulfilling all specified criteria and enhancing the operational efficiency of the Greensborough and Keon Park substations.
