EXECTIVE SUMMARY OF PROJECT CHARTER
Purpose of Project Charter
University of Central Punjab contacted us for the construction of hostel block. As the number of
students is increasing each year and currently university does not provide any living facility for
students, there is a demand of the hostel blocks, particularly because University of Central
Punjab provides a concession for Punjab College students, which is almost in every developed
city of Pakistan, that is why most of the students are from different areas of Pakistan.

(PLANNING PHASE)
The Planning consists of those processes performed to establish the total scope, define and refine
the objectives, and develop the course of action required to attain those objectives. The planning
processes develop the project management plan and the project documents that will be used to
carry out the project.
PROJECT PLAN
Scope
It is to identify the requirements of the construction of the hostel block, the building works and
the external works.
1. Hours of working
The core working hours will be from 8.00 am to 5.00 pm (Mondays to Fridays). Some
employees will be working outside the core working hours which are necessary for strategic
construction operations and in case of emergencies. The strategic operations may require work to
be carried out through night time period.
4. Soil test
Once the agreement is signed the first job to be undertaken would be to conduct a soil test. This
will be done by the experienced surveyors and professionals. This will provide a complete
description of the natural ground.
6. Excavation
The area where excavation is to be done will be surveyed by the surveyor and the surveyor will
mark according to the approved layout and drawings. Our surveyor will verify the marked area
with the drawings approved by the consultant. Once satisfied, the consultant will be called for
inspection. The marked area will be excavated using excavator/ shovel. All excavated material
will be moved away to another area.

The quality management plan describes how the project management team will implement the
performing organization’s quality policy.
Fixed working hours and schedule has been set in order to complete the project in time
and to perform flawless work.
AARTH Constructions will hire professionals to conduct soil test in order to get a full
description of the natural ground. This will help the project team to prepare for all the
necessary actions to be performed while excavating.
Once the soil test report is received excavation will be performed by skilled labor and
machinery. When the excavation is complete site officer and site engineer will survey the
site and no further work will be performed unless we get an approval.
Quality control officer and site engineer will regularly monitor the structure work at each
phase of completion. They will also monitor type and quality of cement, sand, steel
reinforcements, brick on each or prior purchase. Only that material would be used which
would be mentioned before the work is performed.
The nominal mix or ratio of cement, sand, stone ballast and steel reinforcements shall be
observed and followed while laying of Plain Cement Concrete (PCC) and Reinforced
Cement Concrete (RCC) in foundations, columns, beams, slabs etc.
Form work
The site engineer and site officer will jointly check the form work to ensure that all the
requirements have been satisfied. The checks will include the inspection of joints, tolerance,
position of the laid materials etc.
Reinforcing steel
26 | P a g e
Reinforcing steel will be fixed in accordance with the stamped and approved drawings. Regular
checks will be made by the site engineer to ensure that the work is being done in compliance
with the approved drawings.
Cleanliness
The site engineer and site officer will check that the entire area where concrete is to be poured is
clean and free from dust and construction related debris.
Other checks
The site engineer and site officer will check that the materials required for the construction are
readily available at all times and the materials are acquired as per the schedule.
Safety inspection
The site officer will inspect the pour area including the access of roads for concrete delivery,
temporary electric works and other materials necessary required for the pouring and preparation
for the pour is safe and does not endanger the health and safety of the personnel involved.
Works inspection
Our civil, mechanical, electrical and plumbing engineer will carry out their own inspection to
ensure that the work has been done properly as per the requirements of the approved drawings.
Consultants’ inspection
When the above inspections have been carried out by our staff, the concrete work is then ready
for inspection by the consultants.
After the approval of the consultant only the structural work will be started.
All the material weather it will be used in the structural, architectural, electrical,
plumbing and for floor work will be procured from approved source and will be inspected
and then passed by the Quality Control Lab so that the agreed and expected quality can
be achieved.
Before handing over a final check will be made by the quality control officer and site
