Report Description

The Office of the Inspector General evaluated whether TVA’s quality management process for the Colbert Combustion Turbine expansion project was accomplished in a manner to achieve compliance with quality objectives and acceptance criteria. We determine quality management was accomplished by the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction contractor in a manner to achieve compliance with quality objectives and acceptance criteria. However, due to previously identified Original Equipment Manufacturer related risks, we found TVA’s oversight of the Original Equipment Manufacturer’s equipment during fabrication could have been improved.
