Power Generation

Build, test and commission at the same time.

Power plant projects don't run in a straight line. Arbiter's project experts manage construction, mechanical completion, pre-commissioning and commissioning in parallel, system by system, with the regulatory record built as the work is done.

The power plant lifecycle

Every phase overlaps. Every system moves at its own pace.

On a power plant, one system is still in construction while the next is in pre-commissioning and a third is being commissioned. Arbiter tracks each system through its own lifecycle, so the project can move as fast as its fastest systems without losing control of the rest.

01 Construction

Tag takeoff and construction check sheets tracked against every tag.

02 Mechanical completion

Walkdowns, punch lists and MC sign-off, system by system.

03 Pre-commissioning

Cable, relay and loop check records captured as each system is released.

04 Commissioning

Energization and functional testing against a complete record.

Scale

Built for the scale of a power plant build.

Thousands of tags, hundreds of systems and multiple contractors on site at once. Arbiter turns the drawings into a structured tag register up front and assigns the right check sheets automatically, so mechanical completion is tracked tag by tag instead of reconstructed at the end.

Over 4,000 check sheets managed, completed and turned over on schedule.

  • Tag takeoff and tag count inside Arbiter save weeks of setup
  • Dynamic ITP runs one check across many tags and signs them off together
  • Deficiencies raised, assigned and closed against the right system
  • Live status by system, so nobody waits for a weekly tracker

Agile execution

Construction, pre-commissioning and commissioning, running simultaneously.

When the schedule compresses, phases overlap. Arbiter gives every team the same live view, so work is released system by system without anyone losing track of what is ready.

Release

System-by-system release

Each system carries its own status, so completed systems move into pre-commissioning while construction continues elsewhere.

Handoff

Clean handoffs between teams

Construction, completions and commissioning teams sign off in the same record, so nobody tests a system that isn't ready or waits on one that is.

Adapt

Change the sequence, keep control

When priorities shift, every team sees the current status of every system the same day, instead of waiting for a tracker to be rebuilt.

Regulatory and compliance

The regulatory record, built as the work is done.

Power plants answer to owners, regulators, insurers and grid operators. DocuLink ties every drawing, test record and certificate to the tags and check sheets that use it, and keeps the field working from the current revision.

When it is time to energize and connect, the turnover package is already complete, traceable and audit-ready. One of our prime construction contractors passes external ISO 9001 quality audits on the consistency of its Arbiter records.

  • Every sign-off recorded with who, when and against which revision
  • Test records and certificates linked to the exact tag
  • Turnover packages that build as systems are signed off

People plus platform

A lean team, embedded with your project leadership.

Two Completion Specialists on back-to-back rotation, working for your project leadership, whether that's the company delivering the power generation project or the overall project owner.

We join at planning, ideally, or at mechanical completion or commissioning.

  • Planning and configuration delivered before your crews mobilize
  • Completion Specialists on site, running the work in Arbiter every day
  • The platform stays with you, configured as your own tool

FAQ

Power generation questions, answered.

Question

Can Arbiter run construction, pre-commissioning and commissioning at the same time?

Answer

Yes. Every system carries its own status, so completed systems move forward while construction continues elsewhere, and every team works from the same record.

Question

How does Arbiter handle regulatory and quality records?

Answer

DocuLink links drawings, test records and certificates to the tags and check sheets that use them, so the turnover package is complete and audit-ready when it is time to energize.

Question

What kind of power projects do you support?

Answer

Localized and on-site power generation,  gas turbine plants, including the facility connection. Our six most recent projects brought more than 2 GW online. We've also deployed at Hydrogen, Biofuel, Solar and other power generation projects.

Question

When should Arbiter join a power plant project?

Answer

Ideally at project planning, so the tag takeoff, check sheets and turnover structure are in place before crews mobilize. We can also join at mechanical completion or commissioning.
