ABSTRACT

With the development of basinization and scale of hydropower project construction, the adoption of the EPC general contracting model for large-scale hydropower project construction is an innovation in the construction model, and it also poses challenges to the general contracting management level of hydropower projects. This article adopts the practice of general contracting management of Yangfanggou Hydropower Station design and construction, adopts the model of a close alliance, strengthens technological innovation and optimization through the integration of design and construction, improves the level of engineering technology, and further improves engineering risk control capabilities and efficiency, in terms of quality and Standardization takes precedence in safe and civilized construction management, and informatization is implemented in the entire process of project construction to improve the informatization level of project construction and operation management, which can provide reference for similar general contracting projects of hydropower projects.
