Standards
Control, on paper, where it can be audited.
A construction manager is only worth the documents it produces. Here is what gets written, how often, and against which standards.
Technical references
What the work is checked against
Photovoltaic plant
- IEC 62446-1 — commissioning tests, documentation and inspection
- IEC 62548 — photovoltaic array design
- IEC 61215 and IEC 61730 — module qualification and safety
- IEC 60364-7-712 — low-voltage installations, PV supply systems
Wind plant
- IEC 61400-1 — design requirements
- IEC 61400-24 — lightning protection
- Turbine supplier erection and commissioning procedures
Electrical and grid
- IEC 61439 — low-voltage switchgear assemblies
- GNERC grid code and the GSE connection conditions for the project
- Protection settings agreed with GSE before energisation
Civil and general
- Georgian technical regulations on construction and building safety
- Georgian labour-safety legislation
- HSE procedures aligned to the ISO 45001 framework
These are the standards the work is checked against. Where ENGIA Green holds a certification in its own name it is stated on the company page with the certificate number and the certifying body; where it does not, the site says only that the procedure is aligned to the framework.

Reporting
Who hears what, and when
The owner gets a monthly report against the baseline programme with the slippage stated rather than smoothed. Where the project is financed, the lender’s technical advisor gets the same pack on the same date — not a different one.
Anything that threatens the commercial operation date is escalated when it is identified, not at the next monthly. In practice that means grid outage windows, long-lead equipment and permit conditions, which between them account for most of the slippage on Georgian renewables construction.
Two cadences, deliberately different: progress is reported to the owner monthly, while the capacities and dates published on this site are revised quarterly, in step with NEXT Energy. A public page that moved every month would be noise.
The one number worth watching. Non-conformances raised, and how many are still open. A site with no NCRs is not a well-run site; it is an unsupervised one.
