REC314-3262 | 10 - Infrastructure | Invest in upgrading and integrating ICT platforms to eliminate manual data transfers, and ensure IT and radio communication interoperability across the agencies, together with a dedicated focus on the development of a coordinated risk intelligence capability to provide all stakeholders with a common operating picture and rapid damage assessments. |
REC314-3266 | 14 - Incident Mgt Teams | Engage with the Australian Defence Force (ADF) once or twice a year to understand the capabilities that could potentially be deployed. Educate IMTs about how to deploy ADF assistance effectively and develop a streamlined ‘call out’ procedure. |

REC296-1355 | 10 - Infrastructure | Replacement of all original pipes and hoses not yet done. |
REC296-1360 | 10 - Infrastructure | Carry out regular load bank testing on the generator with a load bank large enough to fully load the generator to 110% which will clean out the engine and also identify whether the generator is capable of providing full load for a sustained length of time. |
REC296-1349 | 10 - Infrastructure | Conduct an assessment of the current essential loads and determine if there are loads that should not be on essential power. |
REC296-1354 | 10 - Infrastructure | Monthly and annual maintenance servicing needs to be scheduled for the generator to DPTI or CHSA schedule requirements. |
REC296-1359 | 10 - Infrastructure | Renegotiate the maintenance contract at the end of the current contract and have DPTI through AGFMA take on the maintenance contract. |
REC296-1353 | 10 - Infrastructure | Regular annual testing at 100% on a load bank needs to be scheduled into a maintenance schedule. |
REC296-1358 | 10 - Infrastructure | If the existing generator is capable of providing the current essential power requirements then the generator needs a major inspection and overhaul all items that may need to be replaced due to age and condition. This includes checking compression, oil pressure, coolant pumping and all other critical components and may actually require providing a temporary generator while the Hospital generator receives a major inspection and possible re build. A ball park figure to do this would be $50,000.00 plus cranage and transport to Detroit workshop probably another $10,000.00 then a temporary generator would need to be hired and installed which could run into $10’s of thousands of dollars depending on how long the engine was out of service. For the money that would be spent checking and rebuilding the existing engine it would be recommended to replace the generator with a new generator. |
REC296-1363 | 10 - Infrastructure | Due to the age of the generator, reliability and reparability risk due to age and the apparent under capacity of the generator it is recommend to replace the generator with a new generator and associated control system designed for the current load requirements and allowance for some future expansion. |

REC296-1356 | 10 - Infrastructure | Accurate records need to be provided as to what is done for each service. |
REC296-1361 | 10 - Infrastructure | Prepare and carry out a testing regime and testing strategy and ensure testing of the generator is done every month for 4 hours over that month and under full Hospital load with test result recorded every 15 minutes. |
REC296-1350 | 10 - Infrastructure | Remove any loads that do not need to be on essential power. |
