Kinsley Group recognise and understand first hand the essential role that site surveillance activities provide during the construction delivery of any project in allowing the Superintendent to exercise their functions under the Contract.

Further to this, we also recognise that site surveillance ensures that the product and services being delivered under a particular Contract meet the project scope and quality requirements.

We have undertaken site surveillance activities for our clients on a range of rail and road related infrastructure projects. The extent and frequency of our site surveillance activities on a given project generally depends on a number of factors including the size of the project, the project complexity, the experience of the Contractor engaged to perform the works and the individual engineering skills/disciplines required to deliver the project.

Our services include:

• Confirmation that the traffic management implemented is in accordance with the approved
  traffic management plan.
• Ensuring that the traffic management implemented is suitable for the conditions. In some
  cases, we have requested that additional traffic management be provided following site
  inspections due to safety concerns.
• Ensuring that the works are being carried out in accordance with the Contractor’s SWMS and
  a copy of the SWMS are located on-site and have been signed by all members of the project
  team.
