REPORT

PROJECT: Construction of 4-lane RAILWAY OVER BRIDGE in lieu of LC


no.6 (Jagatpur) on Chandlodia Khodiar Railway Line section connecting
Chenpur to Godrej Garden City- S.G. Highway at Jagatpur, Ahmedabad.

CLIENT: AHMEDABAD MUNICIPAL CORPORATION


CONTRACTOR: AWADHOOT PROJECT PVT. LTD.
PMC: CASAD CONSULTANT.

INTERVIEWED PERSONNAL:
 VIPUL GANDHI, PMC Project Engineer, has described his site
management strategy. According to context mentioned by him, quality
control and quality assurance should be priority of every construction client
and implementing DIGIQC on their site would be beneficial for their site
management.

 ILESH PATEL, Senior Engineer, shows his interest and praised DIGIQC,
also shared all the drawings and project details, also described the quality
procedures and checklists (pour cards, RFIs, pre concreting stage clearance)
followed on site.

 MAULIK VYAS, Project Engineer, AMC: described the efficiency of


currently working contractor company and also shared his experience
throughout these years. Although being a government official, shows his
interest in DIGIQC and went through some sample checklists.

 HIREN OJHA, Assistant Engineer, AMC: contexed different aspect of site


and also described QAP and Quality certificates, also described third party
laboratory tests and on-site tests.
 JAY PATEL, project engineer, Awadhoot project PVT. LTD.: shared past
experience of government tender process and also previous project
completed under AMC. He shows his interest in DIGIQC, as many works
are still on hold position due to delay in quality approvals from client.
According to him DIGIQC will resolve this delay process and could also
help in transparency between client, consultant and contractor.

OBSERVATIONS
As I visited site which are following old conventional manual method of quality
control and quality tests instead of any technical application. Some of the points
are listed down mentioned specifically by on-site in charge.
1. There has to be more technical aspects in provided checklists provided by
application.

2. As application is in beginning phase so it consumes more battery, also


network issues which can be generally noticed on site because in India most
of the construction works are done in remote or out station location.

3. During construction phase many structural/specification changes occur due


to client requirement that could simply affect the checklists provided by
DIGIQC.

4. Apart from this, in government projects like bridges, railway work:

 80% (reinforcement test, soil test and other construction material


tests) of quality tests are done by recent NABL guidelines.

 Rest 20% of tests like compaction and density tests are done either by
government recommended laboratory or third party.
