Projects that have the potential to impact the possession handback to Network Operations are required to complete a project handback assessment form which will ensure contingencies are in place and can be initiated if project timelines are not met.
Project handback information and any specific requirements that are identified prior to the WCM are discussed and plans made to ensure that all contingencies and requirements are considered to ensure scope delivery. The following requirements are discussed and planned:
Early possession start requirements
Early possession protection requirements – staged to meet critical scope times
Early High Voltage/Low Voltage power isolation permit requirements
Early access to track and/or work trains – staged to meet critical scope times
Track access locations
Project Managers must submit their handback assessment form (AMD-ASD-FOR-015) no later than 8 weeks prior to the possession which also identifies any critical project milestones that could affect the completion of their work within the allocated possession time.
