Thameslink Sub-Contractor Technical Interface Review

Summary

Ensuring physical interfaces were allocated, coordinated and completed correctly first time on site by subcontractors during the London Bridge Station Redevelopment project. echnical design and assurance standards supported the design development process up to approved for construction status (AFC).

Early construction stages identified interface issues that arose between subcontractors’ packages. Best practice for technical assurance would be to engage sub-contractors at, or before, the interdisciplinary design coordination or review stages (IDC/IDR).
