Sticking to process management to create safe and reliable projects
Implementing local construction safety standards strictly We hired local professionals as safety management personnel. Before the start of each project, the safety management personnel would examine the construction plan to decide whether the project could be launched. During the construction process, the safety management personnel would conduct on-site inspections. If any safety hazard or incompliance with the construction plan was found during the inspection, the construction would be immediately stopped and would not be resumed only after passing the reassessment. Formulating strict safety management methods
Due to the poor local security, the field project department has formulated a set of strict safety management measures (including on-site safety emergency plans). For example, the local defense force is hired to guard the factory gates and dormitory gates for 24 hours; the project staff takes turns to work at night and imposes a strict morning and evening work schedule; it is forbidden to leave the factory area without authorization and swimming at the seaside is prohibited. As the largest power project jointly constructed by China and Venezuela’s governments, the Project of 600MW Central Power Plant, completed 168 hours of trial operation 83 Enhancing safety education for expatriate employees days ahead of schedule. The groundbreaking project has become the first power project that was developed by a foreign company ahead of schedule in Venezuela. It has created a precedent for the industry and established the benchmark for CMEC. At the same time, Because there were a large number of installation personnel for civil engineering when Venezuela was in extremely short supply of electricity, the No.6 unit was put into op- and most of them are in foreign countries, there was a larger possibility of mass eration three months ahead of schedule, providing electricity that made up more than 5% Hours incidents. Therefore, the domestic project department had repeatedly required 168 of the total power system of the country, which greatly eased the problem of local electric- ity shortage.

Since the Chinese trains were put into use, the transportation cost on the San Martín Line has been re- duced by 40%, and lost customers have re-selected railway transport. The most direct change is speed. The average speed of new trains can reach 70 km/h. Train drivers’ working environment, with com- fortable operating equipment and air-conditioning for both cooling and heating, is incomparable to that in the past. The most important thing is that, the safety of railway transportation has been greatly improved with the introduction of electronic equipment, which has strengthened communication and monitoring functions.

Scientific management of logistics
Substations under the Construction of Associated Lines with Soyo Combined Cycle Power Plant Project in Luanda Region, Angola, scattered widely around the region, and as there were multiple construction sites operating simultaneously, the project department faced huge challenges in transporting precision equipment such as transformers to the construc- tion sites. Therefore, CMEC hired a professional software technology company to design a BMS (warehousing and logistics) QR code management system based on the characteristics of the project to accurately track the logistics information and usage status of each cargo at Multiple voltage classes Various types of lines any time, which greatly facilitated the efficient management and distribution of cargos.
