1.0 Introduction
1.1.1
This document sets out the scope of services for the
Programme Partner in
working with the
Employer to deliver the Programme to the functional,
technical, time, cost, safety, quality and environmental requirements as set
out in the Project Development Agreement (PDA), the Crossrail Act and the
Industry Partner Agreements. Terms in capitals in this document have the
same meaning as used in the PDA unless defined otherwise in this
contract.
1.1.2 The
Programme Partner will work with the
Employer to form a seamless
and highly professional, integrated Programme delivery team. This
integrated team will work together to manage the delivery of the
Programme including those elements being delivered by other parties. The
Programme Partner and the
Employer will have common aims and
objectives, and will work to a common management plan to enable the
successful delivery of the Programme.
1.1.3 The
Employer is also procuring the services of a Project Delivery Partner
who will be responsible for the successful delivery of the central section
Project. This document needs to be read in conjunction with the scope of
services for the Project Delivery Partner to ensure that the split of
responsibilities between the two Partners is understood and that the
interface between the two is managed effectively and efficiently without
duplication. The
Programme Partner will be required to work in a supportive
and collaborative manner with the Project Delivery Partner.
1.1.4 The
Programme Partner will provide the additional resources needed to
ensure that the integrated team has the overall capability and capacity
needed to fulfil its role in delivering the Programme. Key aspects of the
integrated team’s role are:
i)
the organisation and management of the various elements and related
interfaces;
ii)
ensuring the effective integration of all parts of the Programme to
deliver the railway transportation system;
iii)
the provision of a single point of responsibility for the delivery of the
programme by the due date and within the budget set; and
iv)
managing safety, quality and the environment.
1.1.5
Part A of this Scope sets out the duties and support services to be
undertaken by the
Programme Partner from the outset of the contract and
that must be covered in the first Service Delivery Plan. In summary, the
key areas for which the
Programme Partner is required to take
responsibility are:
i)
Development and implementation of Programme controls;
ii) Planning;
4
Appendix 1 - Scope
__________________________________________________________
iii) Schedule monitoring and analysis (design, procurement,
implementation, testing and commissioning);
iv)
Costs monitoring and analysis;
v) Risk
management;
vi) Change
management;
vii) Systems
engineering;
viii) Interface management; and
ix) Reporting
1.1.6
Part B sets out further activities that the
Programme Partner may be
required to provide assistance to the
Employer during the course of the
contract. In defining these activities, the
Programme Partner should note
that the Project will be delivered by the Employer assisted by the Project
Delivery Partner. Therefore, the scope for the Programme Partner on the
Project is, at the outset, limited to oversight of their activities, along with
those of the other Industry Partners and their respective delivery partners
(including those for Rolling Stock and Depots).
1.1.7 The
Programme Partner will not have direct responsibility for managing the
activities of the Project Delivery Partner other than by providing staff to
work under CLRL’s control.
1.1.8 The
Programme Partner will only potentially become directly involved in the
delivery of the Project in exceptional circumstances where the
Employer takes back, in full or in part, responsibilities contracted to the Project
Delivery Partner.
1.1.9
In developing Crossrail to the current position the
Employer has established
some organisational arrangements, strategies, systems, and processes to
support the ongoing delivery of the Programme and Project. The
Employer has also established effective working arrangements with a wide range of
stakeholders and interested parties. Where the existing arrangements and
relationships will be continuing, the
Programme Partner will be required to
provide a fully supportive and committed approach in taking them forward.
The
Programme Partner will also be required to identify any gaps in the
current arrangements and systems and to set out proposals for ensuring
the successful delivery of the Programme.
1.1.10 The resource requirements of the Programme delivery team in terms of
skills and capacity will vary over the duration of the Programme delivery.
The
Programme Partner will need adequate flexibility in its management of
resources to ensure that the appropriate resources will be available at the
right time.
