On-site supervision: front-line escort major projects

Excavators and rotary drilling rigs each exert their "fists and feet", large earthmoving vehicles are shuttling between the cols, and hundreds of workers are standing on the slopes of the riverbed and bending over... A few days ago, the reporter accompanied the Pinglu Canal Construction Supervision Group of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Discipline Inspection Commission Supervision Committee (hereinafter referred to as the stationed supervision group) to the Pinglu Canal Horse Road Hub Construction Park located in Lingshan County, Qinzhou City, presenting a busy and orderly scene.

The Pinglu Canal runs from the mouth of the Pingtang River in Xijinku District, Hengzhou City, Nanning City in the north, to Qinnan District of Qinzhou City in the south, and flows into Beibu Bay through the Shaping River, Jiuzhou River and Qinjiang River, with a total length of 134.2 kilometers.

"The construction of this project is of strategic significance to promote the development of the local and southwestern regions, and it is necessary to provide strong discipline with a sense of responsibility at all times." Relevant responsible comrades of the Autonomous Region Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision told reporters that since the start of construction, the discipline inspection and supervision organs of the autonomous region have taken the supervision and guarantee of the construction of the Pinglu Canal as an effective starting point for promoting the concretization, precision, and normalization of political supervision, in which the stationed supervision team is responsible for carrying out the whole process of supervision.

Enter the "source" and integrate political supervision into the daily management of enterprises

The Pinglu Canal project has an estimated total investment of 727.3 billion yuan and a planned construction period of 52 months. How to solve the problem of supervising such a high-investment, long-front engineering project throughout the process? The stationed monitoring team first starts from the "source".

Pinglu Canal Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Pinglu Canal Group) is responsible for the development of projects such as shipping, water supply, irrigation, flood control and improvement of water ecological environment. In December 2022, after the Autonomous Region Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision transferred five cadres from the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Group of the Autonomous Region Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision stationed in the Autonomous Region Department of Transportation, and the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Group of the Autonomous Region Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision in Guangxi Beibu Gulf Investment Group Co., Ltd., the stationed supervision team was put into "operation" and began to work in the Pinglu Canal Group.

"In accordance with the requirements of the Autonomous Region Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision, supervision focuses on 24 aspects such as high-standard design, high-quality construction, and clean enterprises." Zhang Jinkui, deputy head of the discipline inspection and supervision team of the Autonomous Region Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision stationed in the Autonomous Region Department of Transportation, who is the leader of the stationed supervision group, believes that to carry out whole-process supervision, we must first make full use of the advantages of "working in one building and eating in one pot", highlight the responsibilities of the stationed units, and embed supervision in the daily management and operation of enterprises.

"There are few supervision professional and technical personnel, and the qualification conditions cannot meet the needs of construction..." On the morning of March 3, the Pinglu Canal Group Standard Committee made suggestions when discussing issues related to the setting of bidding conditions for main engineering bridges.

Ensuring the quality of the project is a top priority. Zhang Jinkui, who attended the meeting as an observer, included relevant problems in the supervision list and continued to follow up and rectify. "Five days later, the proposal was again submitted to the tender committee for consideration, which was staffed by 5 supervision professionals to ensure 'one-to-one' monitoring of each bridge mark." After confirming that the bridge bid was re-improved and the bidding conditions were refined, he was more down-to-earth.

Not only the standard committee, but also all the "triple one" decision-making meetings, including the party-government joint meeting, party committee, board of directors, general manager's office meeting, etc. of the Pinglu Canal Group, the on-site supervision team will send members to attend.

"The 'three major issues' basically cover the main work and main aspects of the work of the stationed units, and take this as the focus of supervision to exert precise force, which can effectively promote the supervised units to strictly perform their main responsibilities and use power honestly and standardly." Zhang Jinkui introduced that since the stationing supervision group was stationed, it has attended 22 decision-making meetings of the "three major ones" as observers, put forward 7 opinions and suggestions, and promoted the further improvement of the relevant systems of the party committee and the general manager's office.

As a young large-scale wholly-state-owned enterprise directly under the autonomous region, Pinglu Canal Group has just been established, which is responsible for building Pinglu Canal into a high-quality project, green project and clean project. In order to promote the correct performance of the Group's responsibilities, the on-site supervision team benchmarked the construction goals of the "three major projects" and started from the two "sources" of system and prevention.

On the one hand, focus on key areas and key links, grasp key powers such as system formulation and decision-making implementation, promote the functional departments of Pinglu Canal Group to strictly enforce their responsibilities and authority, standardize work procedures, establish and improve 61 internal management systems, and form the "Compilation of Internal Management Documents of Pinglu Canal Group" to strengthen power constraints from the source.

On the other hand, urge Pinglu Canal Group to carry out integrity risk point investigation, integrate integrity risk prevention into all links of project construction, and further refine work measures and evaluation standards around building integrity projects, and has established 10 index systems in 35 categories such as strengthening risk prevention and control, covering the whole chain of project construction and keeping the integrity risk threshold firmly at the threshold.

"Honest government talks are an important starting point for urging the foundation of ideals and beliefs and strict observance of discipline and rules." Zhang Jinkui told this reporter that since entering the station, the stationed supervision group has paid attention to ideological education and has completed a clean government talk with 12 middle-level chief officials and "number one" of subsidiaries of the Pinglu Canal Group. Next, the scope of the conversation will be expanded to key positions and key personnel such as finance, personnel and project front-line main leaders, and cadres and employees will be educated and guided to use power in accordance with the law and honestly, and maintain integrity and integrity.

Straight to the "last mile", the project site "point-point" supervision to find problems

According to the progress of construction planning, in March this year, after the completion of the first phase of earth and rock excavation and exploration work at the three key water control hubs along the Pinglu Canal, the horse road hub, the Qishi hub and the youth hub, the construction of the whole line can be started and the main project construction will start.

On March 3, the first phase of the project was 9% "loaded", which is the key node near acceptance. On the same day, the stationed supervision team supervised and inspected the Madao Hub, Qishi Hub and Youth Hub.

Carrying out monthly supervision and inspection of the construction of the Pinglu Canal is a daily supervision mode explored and established by the stationed supervision team. "We insist on 'grasping the small early', putting effort into daily life, and allowing on-site supervision to go deep into the front line of the project." Lin Jie, a member of the stationed supervision team, said that the stationed Pinglu Canal Group grasps the "source" supervision, and the "point-point" supervision at the construction site is to ensure that the "last kilometer" does not go out of style.

The stationed supervision group carries out "point-point" supervision at least once a month, and supervises and inspects the progress of the construction of the Pinglu Canal Group and the construction of grassroots party style and clean government according to the established theme. The reporter learned that the method of supervision is not fixed, sometimes focusing on a certain link for verification, and sometimes listening to reports to understand the progress. This time, it is to check the work ledgers of each link of the hub construction to check the possible integrity risks.

"The ledger data has inconsistencies in the targets of rectification, the payment is not standardized, and there may be false rectification problems, have you seriously investigated?" Opening the "internal inspection" file of the construction party, Lin Jie asked.

"I have verified and confirmed this problem, but it was not recorded in the ledger in time."

Hidden risks in every detail. Lin Jie told reporters that similar irregularities are not unique. For problems found to be irregular, emerging or tendentious, they will be recorded in the "Daily Supervision and Inspection Record Form" carried by the stationed supervision team, and form a problem ledger to provide a basis and reference for the next round of supervision and inspection.

"We cannot take down any problems that may affect the construction of the 'three major projects', and we are also committed to promoting various difficulties and blocking points to be solved on the front line." This is a phrase often said by the stationed supervision team, the Pinglu Canal Group and the participating units.

In order to ensure that problems are truly rectified and corrected in place, the stationed supervision group adheres to the problem orientation and promotes the formation of a closed loop of rectification and reform. For all kinds of corruption risks and hidden dangers, heavy burdens on official reception, excessive expenditures, extravagance and waste, and other problems that can be immediately corrected, prompt the units stationed in the station and all units participating in the construction in person, attract attention, and urge the timely formulation of improvement measures to complete rectification within a time limit. For those that cannot be rectified in the short term, the system will sort out and summarize to form feedback, follow up the rectification throughout the process, and strive to build a closed-loop mechanism of "discovering problems, strictly enforcing discipline, rectifying and correcting deviations, and deepening governance", so as to consolidate and improve the effectiveness of on-site supervision.

In December last year, during an inspection, the stationed supervision team found that there were serious safety hazards in the dumping of soil near the construction site. "The construction period is tight and the task is heavy, but the bottom line of safety cannot be lost." Under the supervision and guidance of the stationed supervision group, the Pinglu Canal Group interviewed the responsible persons of the five participating units in the first phase of the project the next day, and used 12 to 5 days to stop work and investigate and rectify the existing problems in a comprehensive and thorough manner. Due to inadequate safety control and incomplete rectification of potential safety hazards, 5 safety supervisor of the supervision unit was dismissed, and 30 on-site supervisors were seriously warned.

Coordinate and supervise the "game of chess", linkage and cohesion

From March 3 to 21, the stationed supervision group, together with the Autonomous Region Department of Transportation and experts in highway and water transport projects, production safety, etc., carried out special supervision on the construction of the Pinglu Canal Project, the construction of party style and clean government, and production safety.

Different from monthly supervision and inspection, the main force of this inspection is an inspection team composed of experts from functional departments. They will give full play to their professional and technical advantages, focus on project quality, safety, progress, integrity, environmental protection and other aspects, focus on inspecting the construction and construction of the construction unit, survey and design, testing and other responsibilities, and supervise the implementation of the work responsibilities of the unit. "Special supervision adds a supervision group to be responsible for carrying out integrity supervision and inspection of the inspected units." Xie Luyao, a member of the stationed supervision team, introduced that through quarterly thematic supervision, the construction of the Pinglu Canal will be fully covered by the bidding section and project supervision.

The Pinglu Canal carries the beautiful vision of the people of Guangxi and southwest China to prosper to the sea and to the sea. Zhang Jinkui frankly said that the supervision task is heavy, and the stationed supervision team must learn to unite the supervision force and coordinate the supervision "one game" in order to effectively carry out the whole process of supervision.

Since the official start of the construction of the Pinglu Canal, whether it is the project owner, the survey, design and construction unit, or the supervision unit, they have really felt the pressure from supervision.

"In addition to going all out to complete the construction of the project, we have truly felt the responsibility and mission of building a clean project, which not only feels heavy pressure, but also strengthens our motivation to standardize management." Zhang Wei, head of the Qishi Hub Pilot 1 Project Supervision Unit, said.

Behind the results is the foundation laid by linkage for the "one game of chess" supervision pattern.

Since the stationed office, the Tenth Supervision and Inspection Office of the Autonomous Region Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision, the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Group of the Autonomous Region Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision stationed in the Autonomous Region Department of Transportation, the stationed supervision group and the Pinglu Canal Group Discipline Inspection Commission have fully communicated and interacted, giving new vitality to the linkage supervision mechanism of "office organization and enterprise". "From researching and carrying out a series of work of thorough investigation, investigation, and rectification, to assigning supervision tasks and coordinating supervision forces, the 'office organization enterprise' has effectively penetrated, continuously woven a dense supervision network, and realized the same questions and the same direction." Huang Yaoguo, a member of the stationed supervision team, introduced.

In order to effectively coordinate the stationed supervision work, the stationed supervision group also formulated a supervision work plan in accordance with the 24 supervision priorities of the Autonomous Region Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision on the Work Plan for Strengthening the Implementation of Supervision and Safeguards for the Construction of the Pinglu Canal, improved the supervision ledger, clearly focused on 5 supervision priorities in five aspects: resolutely achieving "two maintenances", establishing institutional mechanisms, building high-quality projects, building green projects, and building clean projects, and promoting the annualization of long-term tasks of political supervision and the concretization of annual tasks.

"Based on the task goal of stationed supervision, we first grasp the two 'fulcrums' of the main responsibility of the party committee of the Pinglu Canal Group and the supervision responsibility of the discipline inspection commission, so as to leverage the internal and external supervision of the group." Huang Yaoguo introduced that in terms of business, he urged the group to refine and decompose 5 items and 18 specific measures from 44 aspects, formulate and introduce specific work plans, continue to follow up and supervise, accurately supervise and supervise the whole process, and lead the clean and efficient construction of the Pinglu Canal. In terms of integrity and self-discipline, we will explore with the Group Discipline Inspection Commission the supervision mechanism of "joint promotion of key businesses, regular consultation on important progress, and communication of major issues at any time", and promote the simultaneous signing of engineering contracts and integrity contracts, the simultaneous development of technical disclosure and integrity disclosure, the simultaneous implementation of quality supervision and integrity supervision, and the simultaneous acceptance of project engineering and integrity projects.

Breaking the barriers of institutional mechanisms, the stationed supervision group also opened up an "information bridge" to the outside world, focusing on strengthening the construction of information notification and sharing mechanism with Pinglu Canal Group and supervision units, focusing on the use of information technology and relying on big data for precise supervision, and realizing information sharing and supervision linkage. At the same time, it has established a "six-party linkage" mechanism with Pinglu Canal Group and units such as survey and design, construction, supervision and testing, to promote the transformation of supervision to diversified collaborative governance, and continuously promote the deepening of supervision in the whole process.
