COMPANY INFORMATION

Doan Luc Trading Construction Company Limited

In the construction industry, project activities are typically carried out directly at worksites. Therefore, they are influenced by environmental conditions, workforce factors, equipment, and project schedules. Moreover, continuous changes across construction phases may lead to deviations in process implementation if the management system is not regularly monitored, controlled, and reviewed.

For this reason, surveillance audits play an important role. They help organizations promptly identify areas for improvement. At the same time, they ensure that the management system remains aligned with both standard requirements and practical construction conditions.

FOCUS OF THE SURVEILLANCE AUDIT

Within the audit program, ARES Vietnam’s experts focused on the application and maintenance of the management systems in construction and project operations. In particular, the audit reviewed:

• The level of compliance with quality requirements during on-site work execution

• The implementation of preventive measures to protect workers’ occupational health and safety

• The identification, control, and mitigation of environmental aspects arising from construction activities

Based on the audit findings, the audit team provided appropriate recommendations. These focused on improving on-site record-keeping practices. In addition, responsibilities among management levels were further clarified. Internal inspection mechanisms for high-risk activities were also strengthened. As a result, these measures support the company in maintaining system effectiveness throughout the certification cycle.

VALUE DELIVERED TO THE ORGANIZATION

Through the surveillance audit, Doan Luc Trading Construction Company Limited gained an improved basis to review and unify general operational principles across its projects. Furthermore, the consistent implementation of management systems enhances the company’s ability to control progress, costs, and risks. This is particularly important when project scale or scope changes.
