Background
- Service: Mechanical supervisor
- Industry: Aquacultre
- Country: Norway
At Plant Supervision, we understand that even the most well-planned projects can hit unexpected roadblocks.
Our client, who was constructing a landbased salmon farm in Northern Norway, faced one such challenge when their electrical supervisor needed to take a four-week summer vacation during the project’s critical phase.
They came to us with the task of identifying a supervisor as a summer vacation replacement, with the main assignments including coordination of the electrical sub-contractors and ensuring a smooth handover to the returning supervisor.
Challenge
Our client faced a major dilemma as they were unable to find a suitable replacement for the specialized and critical role at such short notice. The location, project duration, and summer vacation season further narrowed the pool of candidates.
As a result, the electrical installations would be put on hold, potentially risking costly downtime and project delays if the position could not be filled by the right supervisor.
Our solution
This is where Plant Supervision stepped in. Our supervisors are not only handpicked for their experience and technical abilities in their respective fields, but also for their agility and willingness to travel abroad for projects of varying durations. Within two weeks of receiving the client’s brief, we had identified the right supervisor with the necessary experience and mobilized him to the site in Northern Norway.
Our Norwegian branch office took care of all compliance and administrative tasks, including obtaining a valid D number (Norwegian ID number) for the supervisor as well as a HMS card from the Norwegian Working Environment Authority.
Throughout the project, our supervisor provided detailed reporting on the progress of the electrical installations, ensuring transparency and accountability at every step.
