Direct investment control in the whole country as well as quality inspection of work at each stage became obtainable for PKP PLK thanks to the purchase of mobile laboratories. The first two specialised vehicles are just starting their operation and the next ten are going to be purchased by the infrastructure manager this year.
The mobile laboratories will strengthen the constant monitoring of quality by PKP PLK, which also covers the control of construction materials used for investment work. The vehicles will enable us to collect and examine the samples of inter alia: ballast, ground and concrete composition directly on the spot and at any time. One mobile laboratory will be able to carry out more than 40 tests a day.
The PLK’s investment programme foresees almost 300 investment projects of the total value of PLN 67 billion to be carried out by 2023. This is over twice the amount that PLK has had at its disposal in the years 2007-2015. “Such an enlargement of PLK’s investment scope requires the intensification of the production which can have an impact on the quality of conducted works, materials, and construction products. The company carries out the project of the investment quality control in a way that is adjusted to line project characteristics, which assumes carrying out the work in more than a dozen locations at the same time. That is why we have implemented the innovative solution i.e. mobile laboratories, whose equipment will be adjusted to the current needs”, said Artur Odyniec, PLK’s Audit and Quality Department Director.
