Commercial The Commercial Department’s core responsibility is to provide measurement services for Gammon’s Tendering and Project teams. Specific activities include checking quantities, the preparing of bills of quantities for design and build projects and resolving sub-contracting enquiries, plus ordering materials and conducting final measurements for main contracts and sub-contracts. The Department also evaluates variation orders and provides measurement services for Group business partners. Ultimately, our Commercial Department functions as a small professional quantity surveying firm providing professional support services for tender submissions and settling projects’ final accounts. All measurements produced by the Commercial team fully comply with industry-standard SMM calibrations. The team’s use of pre-developed standardised measurement templates simplifies and speeds up taking off, while uniform layouts and systematically structured worksheets streamline the administration and review of measurements and bills of quantities.

DesignThe Design division of Gammon Shenzhen incorporates a branch office of Lambeth Associates Limited of Hong Kong, also known as Lambeth (SZ).

In addition to providing design support for Lambeth (HK), Lambeth (SZ) also handles in-house design projects. The team’s many recent activities include the underpass design for Singapore’s Upgrading of the Woodsville Interchange Project and the design of the connection for the Hong Kong Convention & Exhibition Centre extension. Lambeth (SZ) also designed the structure for the steel-roofed restaurant area at Pacific Place Mall in Hong Kong. Lambeth (SZ) is particularly strong in structural steelwork and has worked closely with Gammon’s Construction Services Department on a variety of high-profile projects, including Macao’s North Atrium and The Venetian Macao-Resort-Hotel.

Plant and EquipmentThe Plant and Equipment Department is responsible for designing various equipment for the Gammon Group’s operation departments such as Foundations, Building, and Civil Department… etc. Specific capabilities include preparing 3-D drawings, models, animation and fabrication drawings via state-of-the-art computer generated imaging software. The team’s ultimate aim is to enhance time & cost effectiveness of equipment fabrication by eliminating any component dimensional errors and performing pre-production 3-D model structure checking.

Shenzhen BIM Centre

The BIM (Building Information Modelling) Centre in Shenzhen was established in early 2009 to aid project teams with BIM-related technologies and achieve project goals such as E&M coordination, quantity checking, design option studies and virtual construction simulations. The main uses of BIM are to

1. assist in identifying the various critical events and paths in the proposed construction programme;

2. illustrate different construction sequences for different construction scenarios due to site constraints and difficulties, while achieving better communication and safety with site workers;

3. demonstrate the relationship between site formation works and building works for construction planning and working space analysis; and

4. coordinate the fabrication components with the in-situ RC works all in a single BIM platform.

ProcurementThe key objective of our Procurement Department is to collaborate closely with all parties from sub-contracting partners to Gammon customers in order to achieve ‘Best Value and Sustainable Supply Chain Solutions’. In addition to delivering cost-and time-effective solutions in the supply chain, the Department also adds value in the areas of quality, safety, environment and logistics.

In striving to source efficient and cost-effective products and services for the Gammon Group and its customers, the Shenzhen Procurement team has established a China Vendor Base of leading manufacturers and suppliers. Focusing on low-cost and top-quality sourcing from China, our management of these manufacturers adds value for our business and our customers by providing greater cost benefits while satisfying the growing demand for increasingly sophisticated quality and delivery standards.

The Department’s ‘Best Practice’ supply chain management process spans the evaluation and selection of China manufacturers to ensuring compliance with international standards and customers’ specifications. The Procurement team also works with China manufacturers to continually develop and improve production planning and quality control, and health, safety and environment standards. Other key departmental capabilities include assessing and managing risk; overseeing the supply process until delivery for installation; and monitoring trade, customs, shipping and logistics arrangements.

Our Procurement professionals possess extensive knowledge of the technical specifications and international requirements for a wide range of materials, plus a solid understanding of China’s customs, tax and trade regulations and

logistics arrangements. By engaging with architects and customers at the design development stage, they also provide effective design and fabrication advice for manufacturers.

Experienced Quality Control engineers from the Shenzhen team conduct factory inspections and audits to assess management systems in terms of production planning, quality control, safety and environmental compliance. The Department also works with manufacturers in balancing environmental, social and economic impacts to ensure sustainability, as well as conducting product inspections to ensure technical compliance with specifications and agreed delivery programmes.

Effective supply chain co-ordination is demonstrated via various high-profile Gammon projects, including the Tamar Development Project.
