Tools for project management, used in JAVYS
In the process of project management, JAVYS uses the following basic levels of management: Project
Manager, Project Engineer, Steering Committee, and Board of Directors:
- The project manager is a full-time employee of JAVYS and personally manages one or several
decommissioning sub-projects and leads appointed project team(s), consisting of experts from
different fields. The project has appointed professional guarantor (being a relevant division
director), who directs the strategic concept and the main direction of the project.
- Project Engineer is responsible for overall project management of V1 NPP decommissioning set
by the project management system and he is the representative of the operational project
management (and in the case of the supply model he is also representative to the contractor in
accordance with the applied rules and contractual FIDIC conditions).
- The Steering Committee consists of the Head of PMU (Project Management Unit) and of
representatives of other JAVYS’ divisions involved in the V1 NPP decommissioning project
activities. They address the interfaces with other JAVYS’ projects, as well as other business
activities in JAVYS.
- The Board of Directors represents the highest governing body addressing the fundamental
questions of project scope, management and the budget.
Project management in addition to internal meetings is also performed on the monthly progress
meeting of V1 NPP decommissioning project, involving the representatives of the European Bank for
Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and PMU Consultant (Project Management Unit).
Project management process continues in the external environment of JAVYS company, through the
Ministry of Economy as the sole JAVYS’ shareholder and decommissioning coordinator at the national
level. The next level of management is through so-called The Joint Committee of the Slovak Republic
and the EBRD, in which operate, in addition to the above-mentioned entities, also relevant Slovak
authorities, including the State Nuclear Regulatory Authority, the National Nuclear Fund, Ministry of
Finance, Office of the Government, etc. Information about decommissioning is presented also to the
Slovak Government every year.
This management structure is fully functional for escalation and subsequent decisions making in
managing of questions, problems and risks in risk and changes management.
Risk management
Within the document 'Bohunice V1 NPP Decommissioning Strategy Report' a conceptual risk
management for the overall V1 NPP decommissioning project has been developed. Risk management
for the overall V1 NPP decommissioning project identifies risk categories (from very low to very high,
probability criteria and impact criteria) with 6 major risks defined. Each major risk includes the type,
definition, risk factor with assigned probability of occurrence and potential impact on the
decommissioning project.
