Quality- Driving Efficiencies in the Offshore Wind Sector
The UK Government’s post Covid Build Back Better initiative will aim to accelerate the transition to net zero. The Offshore Wind Sector is looking strong in Scotland by pushing the boundaries in terms of reducing costs while innovating new technologies and Quality plays an integral part in this. We know that learning from the oil and gas industry has helped accelerate floating offshore wind development and cut costs. (https://www.windpowermonthly.com/article/1665801/oil-gas-sectors-lessons-floating-offshore-wind).
Sandaig Engineering delivers industry best practice in management systems and strategic quality programmes within the energy sector supply chain. We have experience of delivering consultancy and operational support for Oil and Gas operators and Tier one Contractors where there has been a large focus on defining service criticality, supplier assessment and supplier auditing.
However, here at Sandaig Engineering, we believe our approach to QA and QC consultancy services in the Oil ang Gas industry can be equally applied to the Offshore Wind Sector. Our specialist knowledge has been developed from years of experience of helping companies get it right first time to reduce expensive outages and downtime. This approach strengthens supply chains and drives up performance.
At Sandaig Engineering we can work with clients from the early-stage development to provide QA/QC support through the full supply chain cycle from tendering to installation and can cover all major commodities. This ensures a culture of quality is built into the organisation, adding value and getting it right first time which in turn drives up efficiencies placing our customers at the top of their game.
Services can include:
- Gap analysis on engineering, projects, supply chain and operations processes and management systems
- Implementing engineering and supply chain processes either in isolation or as part of a full management system
- Managing the QA and HSE portions of major supplier evaluation and ITT processes
- Vendor technical and management system auditing
- Management of inspection and test plans and vendor/third party inspection programs
- Root cause analysis
- Implementing and managing NCR processes
