Other FAQs
How are pods labelled and tracked?
Each pod is assigned a unique serial number to ensure full traceability throughout manufacture, delivery, installation, and quality assurance processes. This system supports floor allocation verification and maintains compliance with Golden Thread documentation requirements.
How is documentation managed to support the Golden Thread of information?
Documentation is managed across design, manufacture, and inspection stages, including drawings, QA records, testing results, material traceability, and as-built information. These records can be integrated into digital systems to support the Golden Thread of information.
Who is responsible for connections between the pod and building services?
Responsibility for pod-to-building service connections is defined by the project scope. Typically, Sterchele manufactures and tests the pod, while the appointed M&E contractor completes on-site connections. Interface roles are coordinated during design to ensure alignment, with Sterchele supporting inspections when included in the scope.
