Modernisation of electricity networks of a military harbor

Project presentation

The client, a public establishment in the defence sector, is in charge of the modernisation of the electricity networks of a military harbour.

This public entity has competencies in terms of construction, property maintenance, administrative and technical management of assets on behalf of a ministry.

In line with redesign operations already launched, the project to modernise the electricity networks includes the following operations:

The creation of 5 50Hz and 3 60Hz HV loops
The creation or adaptation of HV/LV stations distributed over these loops (80 stations)
The finalization of a power source (HTB/HTA part)
Extension of the control system to new installations
The creation of a new rescue centre
Removal of replaced installations

In this context, the client has mandated Assystem to work on the redesign of the HV electrical distribution system in the military harbour as part of a global project management.

Project Scope

Assystem is responsible for all the project management tasks of the project, from design to realisation:

Design and implementation follow-up (Diagnostic, Feasibility Study, Draft/Preliminary Design, Detailed Design, Project, Tendering, Support for the granting of Works Contracts, Visa, Management of Works Contracts Performance, Assistance with Acceptance Operations, Perfect Completion Guarantee)
Project management / PMO (Contract, Planning, Costs)
Implementation of a systems engineering approach

This project management mission covers the following skills: complex project management in a constrained environment, HV/LV (High Voltage - Low Voltage) electricity - instrumentation and control systems, cyber defence (management of the certification process), nuclear safety and operational safety, civil engineering, structure and RMN (Roads and Miscellaneous Networks), HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning) - Fluids, lightning studies, fire safety / Coordination of Fire Safety Systems, environmental issues.

Client benefits

Fast launching, good understanding of the client's unexpressed elements, removal of any uncertainties that may remain during the first few years of the project thanks to a good knowledge of the client's methodologies and needs
Continuity of operation despite the works (design and follow-up of operations)
Standardization of processes, improvement of project management performance
Anticipating risks by implementing system engineering methods in the early stages of the project
