Company Overview:

Universal Energy Australia Pty Ltd was established in 2014.

The company directors came together from two already established companies, Universal Commissioning Services and Energy Dynamix Australia, the merger has given Universal Energy the ability to provide a more diverse service to a wider range of clients. UEA holds long term agreements and shared resources with partners in both the sub-continent and Europe.

It is our mission to perform a wide variety of work related to many areas of the electrical industry but with our main focus being in the area of HV/LV testing, commissioning, and maintenance work to the highest standard whilst at all times working to the most stringent of safety standards.

Project methodology

Service & Maintenance Department

• Methodology and approach

• SHE & QA

• Maintenance sheets

• Critical and after hours callouts

• Systems

Methodology and Approach:

Universal Energy Australia provides a number of different reporting and information methods, to best satisfy client needs. For the requirements of the customer we have identified the following methods that will enable the dissemination of essential information.

Safety, Health, Environment & Quality Assurance:

As part of our management systems the following is carried out:

• Site inductions if required Client/Site specific requirements • JSEA and associated documents if required Client/Site specific requirements • Details of insurances provided • Take 5’s carried out prior to commencement of works • Calibration of measurement equipment maintained current • ITP’s if required Client/Site specific requirements

Maintenance Sheets:

Specific equipment related sheets determining the correct scope of work and service required are utilised for each and every maintenance visit. Each sheet is completed during the maintenance visit and the scope of work followed to ensure a consistent outcome.

Critical and After Hours Callouts:

UEA has a track record in meeting callout deadlines. We understand that emergency calls are critical and in many cases, can cost our clients time and money, so it’s imperative to us to meet your needs in this area. As part of our critical callout service we provide accurate reporting of the fault, the location, the implications and the costs of rectification. All our technicians are trained in basic cost estimation. For call outs falling outside normal working hours, the customer would dial our dedicated after hours’ number and register an emergency call out.

Our systems ensure that the client is involved in the logistics of project delivery and the decisions that are made during the process. Our systems are transparent and take into consideration parameters such as:

• life cycle costing

• equipment delivery

• initial project start up

• capital cost

• maintenance cost

• equipment resilience to site conditions

• ease of equipment operation.

Our systems rely on continual review procedures, client liaison during the life of the project,

and effective and prompt communication of any issues that may arise.

We set out to minimise disruption to any area of site construction. This is accomplished through liaison with operations staff and taking on board their requirements and the need to make the construction phase of the project as risk free as possible.

Our commitment is to deliver a product that is: • of sound quality

• cost effective

• safe

• delivered in a timely manner
