Work stages

Meeting

It’s a starting point to meet your requirements, where we confirm main stages of work, terms, designing process and construction of your future protective resort (bunker).  These conditions, after having been verbally agreed, are being implemented through the following steps, described below.

Aiming to create a technical requirement for your project, we:

1. Send you a questionnaire on all main points of the future project (e.g.: if there are any documents of the land survey, geological investigation, number of people you want to shelter, their gender, etc.).
2. Carry out a detailed analysis, make all necessary clarifications and corrections if needed, as a result we find the best layout, equipment and engineering solutions.
3. After all arrangements have been agreed, send you an elaborated technical requirement with a complete calculation of the design, as well as the construction.

As a final step of this work stage we create and sign a contract price protocol on all forthcoming tasks.

Our company guarantees absolute confidentiality; with us you can be sure that the installation of your safe room is kept under close wraps!

There won’t be a single person to have noticed the construction process –  we sign a non-disclosure agreement with all team members.

Inspection, specification and approval for basic data

After having elaborated the first stage, if necessary, we arrange an appointment with you (onsite the construction of the future project) to get more information:

• From the local office of MES (Ministry of Emergency Situations) of Russia and other authorities involved.
• Sort out and carry out engineering and geological site investigations, assess and fix up possible configurations of house communications.
• Specify and arrange all final technological solutions confirmed within the technical requirement.

All steps of the second stage are on a paying basis. The price is set out in a contract price protocol, as well as in an agreement for the tasks performed.

Project works

After you have approved the technical requirement, we conclude an agreement for developing design estimation paperwork in stages P (planning documentation) and W (working documentation).  It may be implemented as separate contracts for each stage of the work being carried out. Thus, this is the third stage of the project.

It’s optional that the design estimation paperwork may be given to corresponding organizations for performing expert analysis – as a whole document or in separate parts on any stage of the project. 

Price of project works can be defined only after the first and second stages have been accomplished and is set out by an agreement. Our financial standing is following: 30% as an upfront fee (after having signed an agreement), 60% payment after having handed carried out works and all related financial documents over to a customer), 10% after expert analysis has been performed (alike with other possible arrangements).

Contract obligations

All stages of work performance, from construction to installation, are carried out by the accomplished team in our company, whether according to our own elaborated project or other ones. Depending on facility remoteness there may be other reasonable solutions to be worked out, as agreed with a customer.

To provide full safety and thoroughness we note that assembly work of specific equipment, starting-up and adjustment works as well as acceptance testing are to be carried out by the specialists of our company at any account.

Construction works

On this stage our construction team starts work. When installation of critical structures is to be held or concealed works are to be done, you or your representative is called to a location in order to monitor the progress of the works, which is followed by signing an acceptance act.

All projects are carefully followed up by our technical supervision service with full control upon construction workers as well as precise coordination with a foreman.

Project handover

All works are accomplished according to requirements of constructing guidance documents along with designing and signing all corresponding protocols as a final step.

Upon constructing completion all as-built documentation including leak-proof test protocols, low air setup regulation as well as efficiency of life-supporting systems specifications is given to a customer.

It’s optional to create operational flow charts (see figure) and other documents of that kind. At the customer’s request our company provides personnel trainings on efficient usage of a constructed module.  

Maintenance

Due to specific nature of a project, the use of advanced technologies and special equipment, a proper periodic maintenance is of high priority.

Upon your request, we conclude an agreement for such following periodic maintenance as well as further repair of special equipment and engineering systems.

Thus, we take on responsibilities on your safety.
