A2-32 Guidebook for Considering Life-Cycle Costs in Airport Asset procurement Page 26 2.6 Turnover The purpose of the turnover phase is to ensure that the system or facility is fit for the purpose intended, including the operational requirements. For simpler systems this may be as simple as a sign off process between the GTAA Project Manager and the business stakeholders. For more complex systems there may be an entire activation process. Responsibilities include: • GTAA Stakeholders – Responsible • GTAA Project Manager – Support • Commissioning Authority – Advisory • Consultant – Advisory • Contractor – Support. 2.6.1 Activation The activation of a facility is a process that follows the project from its inception through completion to opening day. The objective of the process is to deliver a fully functional facility, compliant with all of the terms and conditions of the contract documents including codes standards and requirements to obtain occupancy and the airport license. The activation process also establishes the facility meets the current operational needs. All staff must be fully trained and intimately familiar with operating and maintaining the facility. All operating and technical documentation must be accurate and effectively stored to allow easy access. As part of the activation process simulation of actual airport requirements may be required.

GTAA Testing, Commissioning, Acceptance, and Turnover Standard A2-33 Page 27 2.6.2 Simulations (GTAA) The GTAA may perform Airport Simulations to verify all operational and maintenance procedures are adequate and that the facility and equipment meet the operational requirements. During this period the equipment will be operated on a continuous basis to resolve operational difficulties and to refine operating and maintenance activities. Various real life scenarios will be enacted using volunteers as mock passengers to demonstrate functional responses to the facilities, and systems. 2.6.3 Simulation Tests As part of the Simulations all or part of the commissioning tests may be enacted including: • Security and Life Safety • Passenger access to and from the Airport, • Processing of passengers through the terminal facilities including baggage, Customs, Immigration controls and security requirements. • Efficiency of directional signage and graphics including ATIMS, FIDS, BIDS. • All Airfield systems including apron equipment, Passenger boarding Bridges, 400 Hz power, point of use water, guidance systems and emergency response. 2.6.4 Simulation Training Simulation provides the opportunity for extensive orientation and training of staff that will operate the facility. Response to emergency and other situations will be analyzed and improved. Although the training program is a continuous process throughout construction this stage of the training is paramount to success. 2.6.5 Airport Simulations When the systems have been accepted the GTAA will conduct Airport Trials and Simulations. The commissioning team may be requested to assist with this process. The Project Manager will determine the level of involvement of the commissioning team. 2.6.6 Independent Testing Simulations provide an ideal opportunity to fine tune the systems and to performance test all of the systems under load. The commissioning team will performance test selected components and systems during this stage to ensure effective and reliable operation beginning opening day. 2.6.7 Acceptance As part of the activation process the business owner will identify, to the GTAA Project Manager, deficiencies, warranty issues or requested changes to the system or facility. The GTAA Project Manager will act on these as appropriate. Once all items have been rectified or resolved the business owner will accept the system from the GTAA Project Manager.

B-1 This appendix contains extracts from contract OP-146642 (details in the preceding box) that specify the application of the whole-life-cost approach to option selection. Whole-Life-Cost Strategy The primary benefit of this project is to enhance the network to support economic growth through the provision of additional capacity to cater to increasing demand. This means it is appropriate to apply WLC methodology from the outset in line with the Network Rail WLC Manual. In GRIP stages 1 and 2, WLC should be delivered by adopting business case methodology when generating options, allowing identification of options with positive business cases at the end of GRIP stage 2. Delivery of the different elements of business case methodology will be agreed between the sponsor and the Network Rail Economic Analysis team. Estimates developed throughout the GRIP process shall be developed in line with the Rail Method of Measurement (RMM). It is expected that a generic model can be used for assessment of WLC, with outputs at each GRIP stage aligning with the process described in Section 7.2 of the WLC Manual. Options which provide partial delivery of the ITSS should be identified if they offer significant benefits in affordability. Infrastructure interventions which can be phased in line with increased train service requirements and other route enhancements (such as ETCS, HS2 and Digital Railway) A p p e n d i x B Example of Contract-Specific Requirements for the Design of Key Infrastructure for Network Rail

B-2 Guidebook for Considering Life-Cycle Costs in Airport Asset procurement over time will be preferred and the WLC comparison of phased approaches (if available) with single, larger interventions should be made, including measurement against the following three criteria: • Affordability • Value for money • Feasibility A WLC study shall be undertaken in accordance with the Network Rail WLC Manual, which provides the methodology and tools relating to why, when and how to apply WLC analysis throughout the GRIP process. Whole-Life-Cost Model The Contractor shall produce capital cost estimates (at the appropriate level of detail) for each long-list and short-list option to enable comparison as part of the optioneering process. The Contractor shall also provide details on any routine maintenance works required through- out the life of the asset to enable the Asset Manager to assess likely costs as part of their option selection process. Options which allow the phased delivery of outputs in line with increases in train service requirements (an expression of which is contained in the train service specification addendum) should be preferred. Where the delivery of infrastructure interventions over a shorter time frame offers better value for money then this trade-off should be expressed as part of the WLC analysis used to support option selection. The [GRIP2] Options Feasibility report will present the final set of options that are deemed to meet the overarching requirements. Any derogations from the requirements shall be clearly arti culated for each option. The report shall include drawings/sketches, computer-generated 3D/4D models and the results of any initial investigations to effectively present and compare the relative whole-life costs, maintainability, safety, buildability benefits (in terms of risk mini- mization for cost, program and scope certainty), disadvantages, program risks, etc. associated with each option. Critical success criteria for the stage are: • WLC analysis carried out: WLC model built taking account of economic benefits (led by the Sponsor in conjunction with Economic Analysis team), capital costs, renewals, operations, maintenance and end of life costs, particularly those factors that differ between the options. This shall be carried out in line with Network Rail’s WLC methodology. Reference Office of Rail and Road, http://orr.gov.uk/about-orr/who-we-work-with/industry-organisations/network-rail
