Enquiry& Project Estimation

At the initial stage on receiving the enquiry from the Customers,

the estimation engineers review the drawings and specification

of a project to ensure the accuracy of the requirement before

finalizing the offer. Any clarifications / queries related to the

requirement shall be liaised with the Customer thereby achieving

the accurate estimate. This will also help them to avoid the

potential of future conflicts during the project execution. Using

world class European Software, cost estimation of projects is

carried out by highly experienced estimators. They also liaise

with Sales, Engineering, and QC for clarification and additional

information required during estimation. Our Estimators provide

value engineered solutions to achieve project economy without

sacrificing the technical performance envisaged by the Consultant.

Planning

The planning of the order formally begins after the Sales Order

and Optimization disc containing detailed instructions are released

by the Estimation/Marketing Department to the Production

Department. The Production Manager reviews all the programs

and delegates the Job Order to a particular Section.

2020

Accessories

When the order is confirmed, the technical coordinator liaises with

the Customer to ensure all the requirements are met. High quality

samples and accessories, along with the required supplier technical

data are submitted for the approval. Swift Facades always focus to

ensure that the customer is wholly satisfied with the range of products

offered.

Project Design

The Design department has a highly qualified and experienced team

of Engineers. Using latest software for Structural Design and CAD, our

Engineers provide structurally stable solutions meeting the aesthetic,

thermal, acoustic standards defined by the consultant. All projects are

designed to the highest International codes and standards.

Material Purchasing

Materials are procured from leading and established vendors locally

and globally to ensure best quality standards. New vendors are

included only after they satisfy the strict quality control checks of our

Quality department. Swift Facades procures material based on the

orders prepared by the Estimator and approved by the Production

Manager. Relevant technical information also will be attached to the

orders to correctly describe the specific requirements given. Moreover,

the workflow of the order is always forwarded to the Procurement

Department to ensure the timely manner of material receipt.

2121

Material Receipt

Prior to arrival of material on site, “advice notices” or other shipping notifications

will be received by the Material supervisor. When he receives the material he

checks thoroughly against the requisition and the relevant purchase order to

ascertain that the material meets the specifications and is correct in quantity. All

incoming material is carefully inspected by our quality Engineer to ensure there

is no sign of defect and the same is in compliance with the approved samples.

The Material Supervisor then records the volume and nature of the shipment

and assigns a storage location. The compliant material is labeled and stored

separately to ensure it is used for the correct project. Non-compliant material

if any is returned to the supplier and the company always tries to ensure

that the replacement sources are available immediately without affecting the

project program.

2222

Fabrication

Various fabrication methods are implemented accordingly in order to

meet the requirements. Once raw materials are made into useful parts,

the aluminium fabrication can continue with cutting, grinding, drilling, or

shaping as specified. The best fabrication method shall be chosen based

on the desired output of the Customer. Various inspections and tests are

conducted by the QC team during the fabrication process in regular intervals

thereby avoiding non-qualified products being installed and also replacement

to be done at the same time.

Delivery

Once the Quality Engineer approves the final product of aluminium

profile, the same is then packaged, stored and delivered according to the

criteria stipulated by our quality management system. Prior to packaging

the Aluminium profiles are subjected to the final stages of quality control

inspections, ensuring consistency of our products and the delivery of high

quality of Aluminium profiles. If required by the contract, the Consultant is

to be notified about the delivery schedule so he may inspect the finished

product and confirm that it is to his compliance

Proper storage at Site

Upon receipt of all materials the company, coordinates with the main

contractor to ensure adequate storage space is provided at site for the

proper storage of incoming material. This is very essential to avoid damages

to stored material. Different material is stored in different methods, based

on its geometry and type. We recommend the site supervisor not to store

2323

2424

the materials directly on the ground to avoid damages and sacrificing of

quality. The site supervisor is responsible that all material stored is properly

marked and color coded in accordance with the specification. This color

coding is maintained throughout the storage / construction period.

Installation :

The project engineer prepares the necessary resources required according

to the project to complete the job within the estimated project timeline.

The project engineer then organises the team to execute the work and

ensure the project is achieved.

Any potential problems in the sequence of works are highlighted to the

Main Contractor at an early stage to avoid future clashes and time loss.

The erection process is done in accordance with the accepted industry

standards. These are a combination of the various supplier recommendations,

experience, and technical know-how. The suppliers are often called to the

site to inspect and confirm the fixing is done as per their requirements

to ensure the proper application of their products and to avoid any faults

due to fabrication. Any issues or non-compliance shall be immediately

highlighted to the Project Engineer who shall be responsible for corrective

actions. Final test of the project will be conducted by the Consultant in

various areas to ensure that work is being done in a satisfactory manner

and that no rejections will be made later on that may delay the project.
