Study On Machine-Electric Project Process Control In Hydroelectric Engineering Based On The Concurrent Engineering

Hydroelectric machine-electric engineering project is characterized as high precision requirement, involving many parties, great difficulty in organization harmonization. Now these cases commonly exist in traditional serial 'throw over wall' mode, such as focusing on the result not the process in management, inefficient information exchanges and harmonization , which leads to great and frequent changes in design, common overdue and overrun, poor quality and the dissatisfaction of project owners. Therefore, this thesis introduces the ideas of Concurrent Engineering (CE) and the theory of process control into hydroelectric machine-electric engineering project management. The main work includes as follows:On the basis of CE, the process re-engineering is studied, which transforms the serial 'throw over wall' mode into concurrent mode. Combined with the theory of process control, the total quality process control in the hydroelectric machine-electric engineering project is highlighted.Since the information exchanges and organization harmonization ineffectiveness in traditional project management organization cannot satisfy the project needs, based on the ideas of the organization re-construction and Integrated Product Team (IPT), a virtual project organization mode is presented. Furthermore, the harmonization management and its support environment of the virtual project organization are described.As for the Critical Chain Scheduling (CCS), known as the breakthrough in the field of project management, the underlying assumptions and fundamentals are thoroughly analyzed. The way how to effectively and rationally apply this method into the engineering project management is discussed. Finally, the practices and experiments of CE, quality process control, project organization harmonization and CCS scheduling in the GongBoXia hydropower station is briefed. In a summary, the thesis helps to construct an efficient project organization bonded by the contracts, in the core of the owner and in the goal of the project common goal, to harmonize the project parties, to control effectively all the processes in the total life cycle, so as to achieve the rapid, high-quality, low-cost setup of the machine group in hydroelectric machine-electric engineering project.
