AGFMA Newsletter

August 2017 – issue 009

Welcome

Welcome to our 9th edition of the AGFMA Newsletter packed with

information that we hope you will find useful and informative. As

previously requested, please continue to send in your feedback on the

type of content you would like to read so we can continue to deliver

articles that are of interest to you.

The South Australian Government is committed to improving the energy

efficiency of the buildings it owns and occupies. In 2015, the

Government of South Australia established the Government Building

Energy Efficiency Investment (GBEEI) program, following on from the

revised 2013 Cabinet Government Building Energy Strategy. This

program requires all government departments to investigate cost-

effective energy efficiency opportunities for government owned

buildings. We are pleased to confirm that agencies who engaged in

this initiative early are now close to completing their first projects and

will soon start to see the benefits of their efforts in the form of energy

efficiencies. Nicky Will and Julia Smethurst from the AGFMA section recently visited the Energy Efficiency Expo

& Seminar – Adelaide, to learn more about the latest energy saving strategies. See Page 12 for more details.

Have you taken a tour of the New Royal Adelaide Hospital? The AGFMA unit were lucky enough to get an

opportunity to take a tour of the inner workings of the New RAH in June. Everything relating to this facility is on a

scale never seen before, check out our article on Page 5.

There are a number of safety related articles in this edition. Safety was one of the key government objectives in

establishing the AGFMA back in 1998. The article on Page 3 - Person Conducting a Business or Undertaking

(PCBU) aims to help clarify roles and responsibilities to ensure the safety of workers who are in, on and around

government facilities. There will be more in the next Newsletter on this important topic.

Later this month agencies will receive their Spotless (Nominated Assets) Condition Reports, this will be the 4th

iteration of condition reports. Please take the opportunity to go through your report with your Spotless FM to ensure

that your critical assets receive the attention needed to meet your business needs.

Quality Assurance

Spotless Work Health & Safety Audit

Each year DPTI, via an external Auditor, undertakes a

WHS audit of Spotless.

Spotless WHS practices are audited in terms of

compliance with the approved Operating Strategies and

legislation.

As in previous years, the External Auditor familiarised

themselves with the Facilities Management Operations

Strategies (FMOS) document which has been developed by Spotless to describe how Spotless will achieve their

contractual requirements.

A testing program was developed using the FMOS documented obligations and the Work Health and Safety Act

2012 (and regulations).

The External Auditor found that Spotless had complied with their contractual and legislated requirements.

Job Claims for Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

It is expected that all Trades have the required and appropriate PPE to undertake normal daily activities.

Trade Rates include a component for PPE. Accordingly claims for PPE cannot be made in instances where the

PPE is commensurate with a specific trade and required to undertake work associated with that trade.

Claims for PPE will be made in instances where the Tradesperson undertakes work that is in keeping with their

trade, but the work is not in an environment or building location that the Tradesperson would reasonably be

expected to work in the normal course of events.

For example, if a Plumber is required to work at height on the external of a building to

install, repair or alter plumbing pipework and a harness is required to ensure safety,

then a claim for the hire of the harness would be appropriate.

It is considered, in this instance, that a safety harness is additional to the normal PPE

that is commensurate with the Plumbing trade.

Safety

There are many varied aspects related to ensuring safety of

workers who are in, on, and around government facilities. An

important part of the WHS Act1 relates to who is the “person

conducting a business or undertaking” (PCBU) when

discussing who owes the duty for health and safety of

workers. Before launching into that discussion, a bit of

background is important:

All government Agencies as operators of facilities

fit within the definition of PCBU.

A worker is: A direct employee; a contractor or a

subcontractor.

Duties owed to workers:

• Workers are provided with safe systems of

work, appropriate to the risks that they may be

exposed to arising from the work that they

perform and the environment in which they

perform it.

• Such systems are maintained, i.e. consistently deployed, reviewed for effectiveness etc.

• Workers carry out their work in safe workplaces.

Who owes duties to a worker?

Depending on the situation, there may be multiple parties including;

• A PCBU that directly employs the worker

• A PCBU that engages a worker or causes that worker to be engaged

• A PCBU that manages and controls a workplace in which the work will take place

• A PCBU that is carrying out other works in the workplace that may affect the health and safety of

those nearby.

Key factors that will determine which party or parties owe a particular duty to a worker in a given arrangement

include:

• Which party or parties has management and control of the workplace

• Which party or parties has the capacity or ability to direct and influence the workers

• What is reasonably practicable

• Contractual arrangements (as long as they don’t contradict the above).

1 Work Health and Safety Act (SA) 2012

4 of 16

In a multiple stakeholder contract arrangement such as the AGFMA, there is a chain of responsibility comprised

of any and all PCBUs involved in commissioning or carrying out the work or managing the workplace where the

work is carried out. The specific duties owed (some may be shared) will be determined by the PCBU’s “place” in

the chain. All PCBU’s, regardless of their place in the chain must take whatever steps are reasonably

practicable to discharge these duties.

Those further removed from the actual work (i.e. those at the “end of the chain”) may have less direct influence

and control over the work and the workers, however these PCBU’s still have important responsibilities in

seeking assurance that systems to ensure worker safety are in place further down the chain and functioning

effectively.

There are certain specific requirements around construction projects but the basic principles mentioned above

are the same.

What does this mean for each Agency and workers under the AGFMA?

As discussed, this is a complex area and often determined by particular facts of each site, worker and task.

Broadly speaking;

1. Spotless and Facilities Services have responsibility for engaging capable and competent contractors

and the workers that they use under the AGFMA,

2. Workers must take reasonable care for their own health and safety and others who they may affect,

3. Each agency must manage and control its facilities in relation to entry, exit, induction, specific site

procedures, notification of hazards etc.,

4. DPTI Facilities Services and DPTI as principal under the AGFMA contract must influence and

control WHS matters by way of contractual arrangements such as mandating SWMS, JSAs,

appropriate training, PPE, reporting, BIRs etc as well as monitoring performance of the effectiveness

of safety systems in place.

The full range of duties owed to a worker will often be shared between the various PCBU’s involved in the

arrangement and depend on the specific circumstances

DPTI’s responsibilities are clear: to ensure that contractors with sufficient capacity and capability to manage the

safety of their workers are engaged, and that these systems are effective.

Agencies, where they are the PCBU with management and control of a workplace also have clear duties to

ensure that all workers, contracted or otherwise, are provided with safe workplaces.

All parties to the AGFMA have a duty to consult, coordinate and cooperate to ensure that the safety of

contracted workers is managed appropriately.

AGFMA - Tour of the New RAH

On Friday 23 June a group from the AGFMA team was given the opportunity to get a glimpse of the inner

workings of the New RAH. The tour was arranged by Spotless who will be the FM for the new flagship hospital of

SA Health.

Everything relating to this facility is on a scale never seen before in this State and there were some jaw

dropping and eye popping moments as we were shown around the plant and equipment located in the various

plant rooms. Here are some pictures to illustrate the point:

Michael Alliston from the AGFMA team standing next to one of several 220kW motors (weighing 2 tonnes each) used to circulate water in

the thermal plant. By comparison, a domestic pump is less than 1kW!

The Yorke chillers used to provide cooling to the Hospital

The big conversation stopper however was the AGV’s (Automated Guided Vehicle) that will be transporting an

array of goods around the hospital. These clever little transporters with their own dedicated elevators will be a

major change in the way goods (and meals) will be delivered and are sure to create a lot of discussion amongst

health staff. There is already talk of giving them unique names!

AGV parked in standby mode AGV manoeuvring into its dedicated lift

Watch out! AGV responding to a request Service corridors long enough to park 28 Metro Buses!

Although the team was impressed with the scale of plant and equipment, the overall and lasting impression was

not that of a traditional hospital with corridors and wards and even appeared small due to the innovative design

and layout of the hospital, all with single rooms. There are separate service “spines” and public corridors which

further enhance privacy and way finding.

It is however a very large facility and every service contractor receives a 30min overview and a 1.5hr tour as part

of their induction and orientation to the facility.

The nerve centre where all plant and equipment is monitored is serviced by a group of help desk operators

taking numerous calls and responding to alarms from thousands of individual pieces of equipment. (See our

article on Predictive Maintenance on page 11).

Every piece of plant, furniture and equipment is tagged and entered into a comprehensive asset management

system to ensure the facility provides optimum service during the life of the 30 year service contract. The asset

register has already passed the 100,000 mark and new items are still being added on a daily basis!

One of six 2.08Mw standby generators, weighing 21 tonne each. Two of these provide enough power for the entire

town of Coober Pedy.Stand by generator fact-Sheet.pdf

We would like to thank the Spotless team based at the NRAH for this “sneak preview”. They are a dedicated

team and their enthusiasm and pride in assuming responsibility for the biggest building in Adelaide is

commendable.

Facilities Services

DPTI Facilities Services, with assistance from Department for Education and

Child Development, successfully provided Glossop Primary School a renovated

and reconfigured National Quality Standard Child Care Facility including an

upgraded teaching and development space, a functional kitchen/meals

preparation area and a shaded eco-friendly children’s play space with sandpit.

The project comprised of approximately 800m2 of refurbishment and was

completed within the 5 month timeline and allocated budget of $560,000. The

outcome has provided an improved teaching environment embraced by the staff

and students.

Paul Gent, Facility Manager, DPTI Facilities Services facilitated the project in

partnership with Lead Architect, Bohdan Dorniak & Co Pty Ltd and Michael

Kregar Building Pty Ltd.

“The children love their new pre-school which promotes fantastic integration with the school. The chook yard is of special interest appropriately named ‘Cluckingham Palace.’ Many thanks to the collaborative work of David James, Paul Gent, Bohdan Dorniak, and Michael Kregar for this fantastic works project.” - Mrs Sue Andrew, Director, Glossop Primary Community School K-7.

Jottings from Wayne Rudland, Spotless, FMS Contract Manager (Central and Northern Metropolitan

Regions)

In the last two Newsletters I have mentioned our Sub-contractor Update Agenda. This program launched early

in May is designed to measure Sub-contractor achievement to the Minimal Acceptable Standards and, where

there are gaps, help those businesses meet the required standards. The first task was to assess the company’s

safety system and how that is translated into safe working practices using the Hudson Capability Safety Maturity

Model. The Hudson model implies the higher you relate - and can demonstrate safety maturity - the less likely

the business is of having a work place incident.

To date we have assessed approximately 30% of our suppliers to the Hudson model. The results indicate 65%

of those reviewed displayed a Safety Capability Maturity of Level 3 or above. The flip-side to this is 35%

displayed an unacceptable maturity level of 2 or below.

Whilst we continue to assess the remainder of our Sub-contractors to the maturity model we will be working with

those identified as requiring a safety update: the Level 2 or 1 companies, for example. Here we outline a plan

for improvement and progressively work with those businesses seeking improvement. I might add, to date in the

main, the Sub-contractors we identify as requiring improvement have appreciated being informed of the

shortfalls and welcomed the opportunity to improve.

We have set a target date of 30 Oct 17 to complete this Update Program. Consequently, I will be well placed in

the next Newsletter to provide a more complete view of how well our Sub-contractors measure to the defined

standards. Meanwhile, we continue to work with all Sub-contractors with the overall aim of moving the safety

capability further up the maturity scale (taking the 8th percentile from Level 3 where it is now to Level 4).

Until next time

Strategic Asset Management Framework

Strategic Asset Management Framework – Working Group

Following on from the workshops earlier this year to promote the updated Strategic Asset Management

Framework ‘A Guide for Managing South Australian Government buildings’, agencies were invited to join a

SAMF Working Group.

The SAMF Working Group purpose is to provide a forum to bring agencies together to share knowledge,

experiences and resources to assist in promoting and developing a consistent approach to building asset

management across government.

The first meeting of the working group was held on 12 July and was an opportunity to introduce our new Senior

Asset Planner, Julia Smethurst.

In addition to the AGFMA web site:

https://www.dpti.sa.gov.au/facilities_management/strategic_asset_management_sam , the working group will

provide another avenue of support to the advisory service to across government agencies on their asset

management systems.

Definition: Asset Management is the ‘coordinated activity of an organisation to realise value from assets’

Definition: Asset Management System is the set of interrelated or interacting elements of an organisation to

establish policies and objectives and processes to achieve those objectives’.

The working group is helping to identify and prioritise what further training or assistance would be beneficial to all

agencies to assist with the development of their own asset management systems.

If you would like to join the working group, please contact Julia Smethurst on 8343 2380 or email

Julia.smethurst@sa.gov.au to be added on to the distribution list.

Contract Management & Agency Support The Last hooRAH

With all eyes on the opening of the New Royal Adelaide Hospital in a few weeks, we thought it would be worth a

quick mention of the immediate future of the old Royal Adelaide Hospital site and what building facilities services

will still be required.

The changes to the Old RAH site will be quite complex with plans to retained some buildings, change ownership

of buildings, upgrade new plant and equipment as well as disconnecting services from building that are ready to

be demolished.

DPTI AGFMA has convened a working group with all the stakeholders (SA Health, Renewal SA, Spotless) to

ensure that the required building facilities services are maintained at the Old RAH site for as long as the need

exists. Although we expect the level of reactive maintenance requests to reduce significantly, it’s not a case of

disconnecting the power and water the day the New-RAH opens!

The redevelopment of the old Royal Adelaide Hospital site reflects years of planning, design and public

consultation. A site in transition is an exciting place to be and as plans for the existing site are released the

important thing is that the Facility Manager is ready to respond no matter what the situation demands.

Strategic Asset Management – Industry News

The future approach to handling maintenance – Predictive Maintenance

Imagine a text message from your car mechanic “Hi, just to let you know that in 550km your car will break-down

due to a faulty alternator, please make an appointment to get it fixed as soon as possible”. This scenario is not

as far-fetched as you might think! Predictive Maintenance has already arrived with sophisticated sensors

monitoring plant and equipment that send an alarm to your BMS telling you to take action. By far the most

proactive and optimised way to manage maintenance of equipment and other assets is through predictive

maintenance. See link below.

Energy Efficiency Expo & Seminar – Adelaide

On Wednesday 9 August, Nicky Will (Senior Asset Engineer) and Julia Smethurst (Senior Asset Planning Officer)

attended the Energy Efficiency Expo & Seminar hosted by the Industry Capability Network SA and the Department

of State Development.

The Expo provided the opportunity for companies to showcase products and services as well as share case studies

from Bickfords, Techno Plas, Golden North and the University of Adelaide. Presentations included the Clean

Energy Finance Corporation (‘CEFC’) (who provides financing to the clean energy sector) and John Dee with 20

steps to cutting energy bills.

The case studies all identified the need to understand your own energy consumption to ensure investment in clean

energy solutions will deliver the best value for your business and be ecologically sustainable. Undertaking an

energy audit is a key component to developing an effective strategy to improve the energy efficiency for each

company.

Companies exhibiting ranged from building management systems (and other software solutions), solar generation

and storage suppliers, HVAC, lighting, generators, insulation, refrigeration and other plant and equipment

solutions.

There was a vast amount of information on display including CEFC’s ‘Energy in Buildings 50 Best Practice

Initiatives’ which contains advice on reducing energy costs and emissions from buildings.

http://www.cefc.com.au/media/290052/NDY_CEFC_BestPracticeGuide.PDF

Check out Jon Dee’s ‘The 20 step guide to cutting energy bills in your business’ which is also available online,

providing practical advice on assessing options and implementing measures to reduce energy costs.

Preventative Maintenance and Technical Data Sheets - A Focus on Safety Technical Data Sheet (TDS) Library – Update Highlights A TDS is being prepared for Sand Blasting Cabinets (EQ122). In addition to condition and operational checks

there are important inspections related to safety. The TDS for Electric Fences - Security and Animal Control

(E28) has been updated. There is more detail, the references to the Standards are completed, and the high risk

nature of the infrastructure and environment has been highlighted with a note that the activities and frequencies

must be adjusted to suit site conditions and the manufacturer’s recommendations. The TDS for Doors – Special

(B14) for prison cells has been updated with further detail on the door swing operating test and a similar

comment about the high risk environment.

Technical Data Sheet (TDS) `Pilot Study’ Review – The Recommendations

The consultant’s report on the 30 TDSs reviewed has been received and is summarised below:

General comment: “The majority of the TDSs were considered to be appropriate, accurate and with no

possibility for a reduction in the frequencies for the generic schedule”.

15 TDSs were unchanged and ‘fit for purpose’.

5 TDSs had very minor recommendations or a reference to a Standard added.

For TDS E03B Alternator Set – Diesel / Gas (Hospital use) the recommendations are that some of the

frequencies should be increased and there are some additional activities to the 5 page TDS. Information

is also available from the reports done late last year on the generators at Port Augusta Hospital and

Flinders Medical Centre. Action: Assess and update TDS as required.

For TDS F11 Fire / Smoke Control System and TDS F16 Fire Detection and Alarm System the

recommendation is that the full descriptions (which can be very explanatory) from the Standard schedule

is copied. Action: Update TDSs with a `middle ground approach’ to detail.

For TDS F34: Bushfire – Sprinkler System the recommendation is that additional detail is added and that

the monthly activities that were only scheduled for the bushfire season should be done throughout the

year. Action: Review MFS/CFS recommendations, assess and update TDS as required.

For TDS F39: Interconnection of Fire Systems the recommendation is the TDS is rewritten as

it’s too generic for the range of facility types and

can be better aligned with the Standard.

Action: Review the new version being prepared

by the consultant and update TDS as required.

For ME06 Air Conditioner – Ducted Packaged

Reverse Cycle a new activity with a monthly

frequency has been added for the air handling

unit system types. Action: Update TDS.

The 4 remaining TDSs can have the activities

and/or frequencies reduced and still comply

with legislation, the Standards and/or

manufacturer’s recommendations. It has been

confirmed that the status of 2 of these TDSs is

very `Discretionary’. Action: Assess and update

TDSs as required.

14 of 16

Technical Data Sheet (TDS) July Review (Package 2) – Update A second package of 30 TDSs has been selected for review for potential `high risk’ and `currency’ issues and/or

where savings may be possible through a reduction or deletion of the servicing. The consultant has been

engaged and briefed and the report is due at the end of August.

The TDS Library website can be accessed here: http://www.st.dtei.sa.gov.au/tds/tds.php National standardisation of hose fittings for Fire Hydrant Systems – Information and Impact The South Australian Metropolitan Fire Service (MFS) and Country Fire Service (CFS) are introducing

standardised fittings for fire hydrant systems for South Australia as part of a national conversion advocated by

the Australasian Fire and Emergency Services Authorities Council (AFAC). For detail on the required Storz

coupling types (diameter sizes and lug numbers) refer to the specification at:

http://www.mfs.sa.gov.au/site/community_safety/commercial/specifications.jsp.

The implementation regime is as follows, for:

New building projects and systems (from 01/07/14): The MFS/CFS may list as deficient any submissions

presented for approval or comment without the Storz couplings as specified;

A significant upgrade of the system: Conversion to the Storz couplings may be requested;

A minor upgrade of the system: The coupling thread ( London Round or Storz) may remain;

An existing system using London Round couplings: Retrofitting is generally not required.

The MFS may be contacted by designers or installers regarding any proposed works for advice. Their

recommendation is that during the planning and budgeting phase for any facility fire system upgrade work,

conversion of the couplings is considered. Currently, the MFS/CFS vehicles are equipped with adaptors for

connecting the Storz couplings to those of another design and with reducers for connecting Storz couplings with

different diameters. Relevant Technical Data Sheets are:

F25 Fire Hydrant Installation (Excluding Booster & Pumps) F25A Fire Booster (Excluding Hydrants & Pumps)

From top left, anti-clockwise: a Storz tank suction fitting; a Storz hydrant fitting (pictures from the SAMFS Advisory Notice 001); a typical Combined Fire Hydrant and Sprinkler Booster installation.
