Cost Savings Avoid Rework Mistakes

2108 - Summary/Objective
2109 -
210901 - Submitted ref DIT 1 0000 with analysis of cost savings developed
210902 - on 940927, ref SDS 13 6639, and then discussed this with Bill.
210903 -
210904 -     [On 941004 Bill cited cost savings advantage of SDS. ref SDS 15
210905 -     8899]
210906 -
210907 -     [On 941010 reviewed with Chris Snyder. ref SDS 16 1377]
210908 -
210909 - This is an example of cost savings by avoiding the cost of rework.
210910 -
210911 -     [On 971008 received report from U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
210912 -     showing procedure for calculating cost savings from avoiding
210913 -     mistakes that cause "rework." ref SDS 19 1273]

2112 - 1438 discussion with Bill
2113 -
211301 - Cost Savings Potential for PG&E - $100K
211302 -
211303 - Bill said he called Kevin Coffee, and Kevin does not recall the scope
211304 - of "Line Protection" as set out in the contract.
211305 -
211306 - Bill said "Line protection" includes the relays and transfer trip
211307 - system on the tie lines (this is reflected in the schedule for SLO
211308 - Hydro and Casmalia).
211309 -
211310 - Ordinarily PG&E would install any work in its facilities, such as at
211311 - SLO Substation and Santa Maria.  Since the transfer trip system mainly
211312 - is built in the CDWR facility and it requires telephone service, which
211313 - CDWR is providing, it is unclear at this time why CDWR would be
211314 - responsible for providing phone service, which is part of the transfer
211315 - trip system, yet was not intended to construct the other parts of the
211316 - transfer trip system in its own facilities.  There is nothing in the
211317 - contract about CDWR making separate arrangements for telephone service
211318 - to support the "Line Protection" system.
211319 -
211320 - A straight forward interpretation that the contract intends for CDWR
211321 - to install the transfer trip, as part of "Line Protection" in its own
211322 - facilities, is consistent with CDWR's understandings as explained in
211323 - the analysis yesterday. ref SDS 13 6639.
211324 -
211325 - Bill said PG&E began designing a transfer trip system based on
211326 - requirements from its standard handbook.  However, the contract says
211327 - that "Line Protection" should be constructed to PG&E design standards,
211328 - so the existence of standards in a handbook, does not speak to
211329 - contractual responsibility for performing the work.
211330 -
211331 - Bill indicated that Jivat may have information on the authority for
211332 - PG&E undertaking this work.
211333 -
211334 -      [On 940929 discussed with Jivat at ref SDS 14 9558.]
211335 -
211336 -
211337 - Clarifying this matter may offer further opportunities for PG&E to
211338 - meet its schedule and budget objectives, since the Transfer Trip
211339 - system is approximately $100K.
211340 -

251101 - He feels now that the work done in shaping the revised Schedule will
