As the International Workers' Day holiday approaches, the Guiyang Quality Supervision Station of Engineering Design (Guiyang Anti-seismic Office) expedited the construction drawing review for a shantytown renovation project serving nearly 1,000 households.
The project encountered pre-holiday challenges of tight approval timelines, complex procedures, and stringent standards. To address these issues, the station's Party branch intervened early, bypassing typical sequential processes. They simultaneously handled tasks like accepting, advancing, and reviewing construction drawings, conducting single-building reviews, planning, pre-mapping, and pre-sale permits.
The core innovation lies in having all stages – from planning permits and single-building reviews to pre-mapping and pre-sale approvals – share unified drawings and technical indicators. This locks in technical parameters, calculation rules, and review standards at the source, preventing drawing conflicts, inconsistent standards, and repeated rectifications, thereby ensuring an efficient and smooth workflow.
Using this framework, several departments issued documents simultaneously: the project received its planning permit on April 25, completed the drawing review and obtained the construction permit the next day, and passed the single-building review while obtaining pre-mapping reports and pre-sale permits on the third day. The time required for drawing review and single-building review was compressed from the original 22 working days to just two working days.
This practice is a vivid demonstration of integrating Party building with core business operations. The office will work to normalize and institutionalize parallel review processes, uphold the bottom line of quality and safety, and inject momentum into the high-quality development of housing and construction in Guiyang City and Gui'an New Area.
