Kunz Kunath AG, Weinfelden, Switzerland

The exi­sting con­trol system and mecha­nics from 1970 was con­ver­ted during run­ning ope­ra­ti­on. For such a refur­bish­ment ope­ra­ti­on at the “open heart”, an over­all pro­ject manage­ment was para­mount. As part of the pro­ject manage­ment, we coor­di­na­ted the pro­ject par­ti­ci­pan­ts such as pro­duc­tion, pro­cess auto­ma­ti­on, elec­tri­cal instal­la­ti­on and plant engi­nee­ring. Sta­ging work­shops were orga­nis­ed and car­ri­ed out, sche­du­les were drawn up and con­ti­nuous­ly updated, and mee­ting minu­tes were taken. In addi­ti­on, we were respon­si­ble for the rea­li­sa­ti­on of the pro­cess auto­ma­ti­on and elec­tri­cal instal­la­ti­on scope. We invi­ted ten­ders for the elec­tri­cal instal­la­ti­on on behalf of the cli­ent and sub­mit­ted a ten­der pro­po­sal to the cli­ent, who award­ed the work to a local con­trac­tor. We super­vi­sed the instal­la­ti­on as the client’s representative.
