Pre-conceptual design program.

Designed to support business case development.

Project executed in a compressed timeline.

Challenges

  • Hatch was tasked with the completion of pre-conceptual design activities for balance-of-plant systems to support the business case development for General Fusion's prototype system.
  • Design activities were used to develop project estimates and schedules (engineering through construction and commissioning) for a number of different alternate configurations in support of clients' business case analysis for the prototype program.

Solution

  • Provided design, estimating, and scheduling support during the pre-conceptual design phase of the prototype development program.
  • Overall space planning of the new prototype facility including architectural floor plans, renderings of proposed facility for visualization, and marketing purposes.
  • The deliverable package included a set of budget estimates (Class V) and corresponding schedules for building construction and commissioning for the defined business alternatives, supported by a design basis report in support of the client gate review package.

Highlights

  • Project was completed on time and on budget and also included an interface with project controls personnel out of Hatch's Vancouver office.
  • Project executed in a compressed timeline to support the gate review of the overall pre-conceptual design.
