Reporters from the provincial Department of Housing and Urban-Rural Development learned that recently Shandong Province for the first time launched the provincial construction project quality and safety auxiliary inspection. After public bidding, the office identified a professional organization to purchase its auxiliary inspection services. On September 13, six teams of 30 experts went to relevant cities and counties to carry out the first round of inspections, which lasted seven to nine days.

       The auxiliary inspection will be conducted in multiple rounds from mid-September to mid-December. The auxiliary inspection projects shall be randomly selected from the housing construction projects under construction in each city and its counties, and the proportion of random inspection shall not be less than 5% of the total housing construction projects under construction in the province.

       "In previous provincial inspections, we mostly recruited experts from municipal departments. The regulatory forces of the cities are also very nervous, and can be allocated for three or two days, a long time to delay the local work. Entrusting a special third-party agency to let professional people do professional work will help the investigation to be professional, detailed and objective. It can also alleviate the problem of insufficient regulatory power, carry out in-depth investigation and analysis of the situation, and improve the regulatory effect." Provincial housing and urban-rural development Department responsible person told reporters.

       The content of the auxiliary inspection includes the quality of the construction entity, the safety of the construction site, the safe operation of the construction lifting machinery, the quality and safety behavior of the project. The auxiliary inspection adopts the "four no two straight" method of "no notice, no greeting, no report, no accompanying reception, straight to the grassroots, straight into the scene". The inspected items will be selected from the housing construction projects under construction in the cities and counties through random models, or determined by random "sweeping the road". The whole process of auxiliary inspection shall be recorded by audio and video recording, and the results shall not be directly fed back to the inspected units. The Housing and Urban-Rural Development Department shall issue a notice of rectification and treatment of problems found to the competent departments of cities divided into districts. For major hidden problems of quality and safety found in the auxiliary inspection, the department will inform the competent departments of cities divided into districts to organize suspension and rectification.
