of the reason for the lower
productivitity results from
the complexity of building a
plant next to one id operation,
changes in union agreements
and scarcity of skilled
tradesmen.
Mr. Jackson said Lummus'
performance and costs are
reviewed by Ontario Hydro at
regular 'meetings between
senior management of both
companies. Meetings are held
every six weeks to review
progress.
The last meeting was July
Lummus was awarded the
contract for the second and
third heavy water _plants at
Bruce because of the quality
of its performance in building
the first plant.
During 1976, the A plant
achieved a capacity factor of
91 ,per cent, 'far above the
performance of any other
Canadian heavy water plant.
"Lummus has had more
experience in design and
construction of heavy water
plants than any other com-
pa'ny in the world, and the
outstandingerformance at
plant A testifies to that." Mr.
Jackson said.
The contract with Lummus
for the B and D plant was
aWarded on a costbasis plus a
fixed fee to the company.
"This is different from ,a
standard cost plus contract
where the higher the cost the
greater the profit to the
• cpntractor. This
arrangement protects the
interests of Hydro and its
customers." Mr. Jackson
said.
Tight construction
schedules, requiring
simultaneous work on
engineering, procurement,
and construction made it
impossible to obtain a fixed
price contract for a large part
of the field work.
Lummus undertook much
of the structural and pipe*
installation work at cost using
its own resources, Mr:
Jackson said.
The main problem areas
identified in Hydro's audit of
the project included em-
ployee relations,
procurement, planning
scheduling, material control,
priiductivity and safety:
"Lummus is devoting all it
resources to meeting the
improved performance
. standards by our November 1
deadline," Mr. Jackson said.
If it becomes necessary to
cancel all or part of the
Lummus contract, Hydro will
consider completing the job
With its own forces.
