**London**: Costain has secured a 10-year professional resources framework aimed at enhancing project management and engineering for the Sizewell C project. The initiative will focus on key areas such as quality assurance and delivery integration, aiming to create a sustainable future and benefit local communities.
Costain has been awarded a significant professional resources framework aimed at bolstering the project management and engineering capabilities for the construction of the Sizewell C nuclear power station. This framework, which has a duration of 10 years, is designed to deliver essential engineering and commercial human resources across three critical areas: delivery integration, quality assurance, and engineering integration.
The scope of this framework encompasses various job roles including cost controllers, risk managers, quality engineers, quality delivery managers, and project engineers. By engaging in these roles, Costain plans to leverage its expertise to guarantee superior performance in several domains such as health and safety protocols, programme management, and quality control.
In comments regarding this new framework, Bob Anstey, the sector director for defence and nuclear energy at Costain, stated: “This project is a vital part of creating a sustainable future. We have a long and successful track record in delivering for our civil nuclear customers, with a highly qualified and experienced workforce that consistently works to the highest safety and quality standards.” Anstey further articulated that a crucial aspect of their endeavour would be to ensure the project leaves a positive legacy. He expressed anticipation about collaborating with Sizewell C on various social value and employment initiatives intended to enhance the lives of local residents and provide enduring benefits to communities in the region.
The framework is expected to foster a close partnership between Costain, Sizewell C, its delivery partners, and the local supply chain, enhancing the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the project. With the Sizewell C nuclear power station poised to play a vital role in the future energy landscape, this partnership underscores a commitment to integrating best practices in construction and community engagement over the next decade.
