ALL DIMENSION IN MILIMETERS Andromeda Industries
TOLERANCE 0.0 MM
PROJECTION DO NOT SCALE Isometric View of Mars Rover
This document contains the specification for the construction of the prototype Mars Rover. Based on this
specification, the Andromeda Industries will successfully test the car to roll down the slope between 30 to 45
degrees for 2 meters, and make it fall through a vertical drop of 1 meter without causing any damage to the
rover, which is expected by the Client, EMPACT, the prototype Mars Rover.
The design package should be referred to as the specific given on all dimensions. A summary of the main

There is possibility of an accident may occur when manufacturing of something. So in this case, the accident
will occur when we manufacture our prototype, Mars Rover. A safety plan is prepared so that the designer and
contractor are aware of the hazards. This safety plan will highlight all the hazards that may occur during the
manufacturing of Mars Rover. Accidents are not fully avoidable although safety plan are prepared, so one
needs to be more aware.
If any problems or accidents occur, Andromeda Industries is available anytime, feel free to contact us. Here is
the contact list of each of our member:
Level Description
Unlikely Rarely to happen even precaution is not followed.
Possible Has a chance to happen.
Likely Very high chance to happen.
3.2 Safety Plan for Stage 1- Design Stage
As this project is a group project, teamwork and cooperation must be given by every member of a team. All
members should be cooperative and the respective work given must be done on time it will cause the other
member to do excessive work and the project cannot be done on time. If non-responsive member occurs in a
team, the other members should discuss with the member about allocating task in meeting or seek for help
from manager to notify and advice the member to have his work done.
Besides, data lost is the likely risk which happens frequently. It is usually caused by closing the program
without saving the work and not responding of the program. Thus, the data and design should be saved once
modification or addition is made in few storages like pen drive and computer as backup.
Furthermore, insufficient information shared in the group might lead to misunderstanding of the whole project.
It is possible to happen as the design is decided by designers, constructors might not understand several part
which will lead the contractors into wrong path. To prevent this risk happens, all members should read
thoroughly the whole design and designers should explain in detail to the contractors.
Although actions are suggested to be taken in curbing the problems, there might some residual risks like team
member ignore all the advice and leave the work undone, data lost and the backup file is not updated, deviation
of explanation of the project occur. All members should aware to reduce the risk to a lower extend.
3.2.5 Summary of Hazards for Design Stage
During construction of prototype, hammering of nails is an essential process. While hammering, injuries to
fingers or arm may occur. The likelihood of this to happen is unlikely and the severity is minor. To prevent this
from happening, we can use a cardboard to hold the nail by making a hole in the cardboard. The cardboard can
be teared out after the nail is embedded enough.
Secondly, drilling of screws is another key process in construction. Debris may be scattered while drilling and
cuts or serious bleeding may occur. This situation is very possible and the severity is moderate. By using safety
goggles and gloves while drilling, we can prevent debris from injuring our eyes. Other than that, learning the
correct techniques and positioning of drilling is also really important.
Not only that, instructions that are poorly written and designed could cause the final product to not be function
able , have many flaws or may not be able to function as intended. This is very likely to happen but the severity
is minor. To stop this from happening, instructions are to be clearly written. Instructions should also be referred
to the photos of the design.
3.3.4 Summary of hazards for Construction Stage
As the prototype must be designed to travel itself for 2 meters, down a slope which not less than 30 degrees
and following this free roll, the prototype will be subject to a vertical drop of 1 meter, there are some hazards
need to be aware.
During testing the prototype, the prototype with sharp edges may drop to the floor. Due to this, leg will get
injured and cuts or serious bleeding may occur. It is likely to occur and the severity is major. To prevent this
accidents, covered shoes must be wear and stay away from the prototype when testing is ongoing.
Secondly, water bottle may also drop out from the prototype during testing. Leg will also get injured and it may
also cause slippery floor if the water of the bottle flow out. It is possible to happen. To avoid this accidents, the
water bottle must be tie up probably or must be construct well according to the design package.
There are another hazard that need to be aware about which is prototype may dissembling during testing stage.
This will cause injuries to eye or wounds to body. It is possible to happen during testing. Wear safety glasses or
goggles and safety clothing during testing to avoid this accident to occur.
3.4.4 Summary of hazards for Testing Stage
Risk Hazard Likelihood Severity Mitigation
The Tender Evaluation Criteria is used as a judgment of grading the tenders. There are different grades to
evaluate the performance of contractors. The tender which obtains the highest score will be selected as partner
in the upcoming construction stage. Thus, contractors should follow the grading standard in order to fulfill the
requirement and score a higher score responsibly. Sufficient evidence must be submitted to prove that the
requirements are fulfilled.
4.2.1 Understanding
A contractor who is able to interpret the design is important to construct the project correctly and without
misunderstanding. In Andromeda Industries, suggestion of modifying the project is acceptable as the current
design might not perfect. The improvement includes the design of project and the material used to construct the
project. Thus, contractors should read through the whole design package in order to provide suggestion.
Contractors are allowed to discuss the design of the project with designers in the meeting to get understand the
project thoroughly. Evidence as the suggestion of improvements, Minutes of Meeting and conversation with
discussion are suggested to submit as a proof.
Description Marks
No discussion and improvement of the project. 0
As a company, a good communication is vital element in evaluating the contractors. With outstanding
communication skill, messages can be conveyed clearly and accurately among the contractors and company.
Grading of this criteria is based on the notification of having meeting formally, exchanging ideas with
designers clearly, and communicating via English in meeting. Email, conversation, Minutes of Meeting and
certificate can be used as evidence for this criteria.

4.2.4 Professionalism
In Andromeda Industries, contractors are required to possess basic safety knowledge and construction skill as
the safety of contractors is extremely important in construction stage. To prevent injury in construction stage,
contractors must possess safety consciousness in every step while using dangerous tool. Besides, the main
consideration of construction skill is correct gesture of using tools as it is highly related to the safety issue.
Possessing knowledge of tools will allow contractors to construct the project in a secured situation. Thus,
contractors are required to provide evidence as summary of safety plan, evidence of learning working tools,
certificate of attending workshop or related subject in previous study (ie, Kemahiran Hidup in PMR) and
evidence of studies of precaution of attending a workplace.

As the budget of this project is regulated, Andromeda Industries is looking for contractors who are able to
manage the budget in the limited range. The cost of materials should be as lower as possible without lowering
the quality of the design. Thus, contractors are required to access and research stores which provide required
material with lowest price. In order to ensure the quality of material, contractors should propose at least 2
stores to purchase the materials with highest quality and lowest price. The evidence of accessing and
researching stores and list of total cost without excessing budget are required to be submitted while possessing
driving license will be a bonus point as it allows contractors to access stores conveniently.
