hi all
We can be in agreement with Gee Cee and all the guys who support the logic of taking the progress photos/clips and i am really concerned with the way Mary is trying to avoid this requirement as we found that taking pic/clips as a monitoring job which is usually done on weekly basis but no harm in doing on daily basis or on some particular events thats happening on sites, i see no reason to back out from this responcibilty and as a matter of fact it helps in updating yourself on daily basis. on the contrary it is not advisible to allow anyother personel to do this requirement as his perspective may not be in line with the planners, thus creating the conflicting views.
In the end it is the relationship with the site team which matters most and to keep the site atmosphere healthy it should not be a problem to take this additional job without any problems,as it is a matter of organisizing oneself to carryout such requirement and it can be done first thing in the morning and last thing in the evening.
hope it helps and all the planners thinking in the same wavelenght agree with me
cheers!!!!!!
Hi Mary,
Infact,we are using Video clippings to study/demonstrate the actual cycle times of plant & equipment vs the planned ones,apart from recording progress.
It all depends how you look at the job.

Guys
Cant these (PICS AND VIDEO CLIPS ) all help in the event of an EOT claim which will make the planners life easier on a later date...
Cheers

Hi Mary,
Bills advice is spot on. The planning engineer has either got to do it, or prove to the site manager why it cant be done. If the site manager has got it fixed in his head that this should be done by the planning engineer and the planning engineer hasnt got time, then paid overtime or an assistant looks to be the only solution.
