Our Quality Management Solution was developed to ensure accurate execution of field work by requiring field crews to submit photographs and documentation upon completion.
During our extensive review of 500kV insulator replacements, our team identified a troubling mistake‚ contractors consistently installed the anchor shackle with incorrect orientation. Each improperly secured anchor shackle threatened the longevity of insulator hardware and opened the door to potential asset failures that could have devastating consequences.
Improperly installed anchor shackles pose an imminent threat to asset reliability, so our work bundling team immediately called back crews to rectify the issue and provided feedback to field supervisors to properly educate crews on placement.
Quality Management swiftly addressed a potential hazard to ensure the longevity, reliability, and functionality of our client's infrastructure while encouraging accountability and continuing education for field crews.
