Introduction (Contd.)

Project Idea Stage


This Stage is the first stage in the project where proposal for technical studies will be developed to determine overall
project feasibility and alignment with KNPC objectives.
During this Stage, review of assessment criteria enables the project's Executive Portfolio Management Committee
(EPMC) to determine the decision of progression to the study stage.
Project Study (Feasibility) Stage
At this stage all technical studies that have received authorization to proceed from the Idea Stage Gate Review and have
secured qualities to enter the Study Stage process where the initiating department will be conducting detailed feasibility
on the approved technical studies.
The main purpose of the Study (Feasibility) Report is to provide list of the solutions options available and best
implementation approach accordingly.
Project Design (FEED) Stage
All projects that have received authorization to proceed via the Study Stage Gate Review and have secured qualities to
enter into the Design (FEED) Stage process where Projects Department and users conduct detailed front-end engineering
design. Please refer to attached Appendix for Design (FEED) Stage Deliverables Checklist and Stage Gate Review
Assessment Criteria.
Detailed planning is undertaken during Project Design (FEED) Stage to ensure that activities performed during project
Implementation Stage are executed, monitored, and controlled properly. Main expected outcomes of Project Design
(FEED) Stage is FEED Package that consists of the following main items:
1.
2.
3.

Project Management Plan for Project Implementation Stage


Project Design Package (drawings, specifications, & data sheet)
ITB for Project Implementation Stage

Project Implement Stage


All projects that have received authorization to progress via the Design Stage Gate Review qualify to enter the Implement
Stage process. Please refer to attached Appendix for detail of Implement Stage Deliverables Checklist and Stage Gate
Review Assessment Criteria.
During this stage, the project final product will be developed according to earlier plan developed during Project Design

Part I: Project Design (FEED) Stage Project Management Plan for EPC Stage
1.1 Project Integration Management Guide
Project Integration Management is a group of activities performed in order to have all Project Management functions
managed effectively towards achieving project stated objective. Project Integration Management consists of the
following main processes:
Develop Project Charter
Develop Project Management Plan (PMP)
Direct and Manage Project
Monitor & Control Project
Integrated Change Control
Close Project
What is Project Management Plan?
Project Management Plan (PMP) is one key deliverable of Project Integration Management and it is developed During
Project Design (FEED) Stage to describe how the project will be executed (execution plan), monitored & controlled by
awarded Project Executer (EPC Contractor). PMP is composed of all management plans as per following:
Stakeholder Management Plan
Scope Management Plan
Schedule Management Plan
Cost Management Plan
Quality Management Plan
Human Resource Management Plan
Communications Management Plan
Risk Management Plan
Procurement Management Plan
Noting that, PMP consists of project Scope, Schedule & Cost baselines. Hence, project will be executed according to the
developed PMP during Project Implement Stage. Any changes to the PMP during Project Implement Stage have to go
through Integrated Change Control process.
Project Management Guideline along with its forms have been initiated to ensure consistency and avoid ambiguity due to
lengthy literature while developing Project Management Plan (PMP) for project execution by FEED developer. Noting
that most of these forms are enhanced version of the ones available in KNPC Project Control Procedure, KNPC Project
Methodology and internal Project Control practices. FEED developer to further customize the forms as per specific
project requirement and put reference numbers.
It must also be noted that forms (addressed in part I & II) are considered as a guideline for FEED Developer to ensure
availability of a complete PMP for project execution and therefore FEED Developer can modify them as deemed
necessary to better serve specific project need and avoid duplication, inconsistency and potential conflict with ITB
module.
It must be made sure that FEED Developer receives complete and updated version of for Project Management Guideline.
PMP (excluding Cost Management Plan, cost related information and schedule & resource estimate related information)
will be attached to tender document (attached to Part-I Instructions to Bidders) in order to provide better opportunity to
the interested Bidders to understand Project Scope of Work and implementation requirements and therefore, submit more
accurate bid.
Furthermore, requirements for Change Control process are also part of Project Integration Management where a Change
Management process is used to ensure that every change identified is formally communicated, documented, reviewed,
approved, and implemented and requirements should be addressed within the Change Management Plan during Project
Design (FEED) Stage.

PD Project Management Guideline


Copy Right Reserved Projects Department I - 2016

Part I: Project Design (FEED) Stage Project Management Plan for EPC Stage
1.4.1 Project Schedule Management Guide
The Project Schedule Management Plan sets the format and establishes criteria for developing and controlling the Project
schedule. During Project Design (FEED) Stage, Schedule Management Plan is developed to describe how the awarded
EPC Contractor will be managing in the timeframe for the undertaken project.
Project Schedule Management will mainly consists of the following processes:
1. Plan Schedule Management
2. Develop Schedule
2.1. Define Activities
2.2. Sequence Activities
2.3. Estimate Activity Resource
2.4. Estimate Activity Durations
2.5. Finalize Schedule
3. Control Schedule (during project implementation)
Responsibility
FEED Developer
Project Design (FEED) developer is responsible to develop Schedule Management Plan & Project Schedule (up to level 5)
using tools and techniques as indicated in this guideline. FEED Developer should develop practical and realistic Project
Schedule using different tools and techniques.
KNPC
KNPC Planning Engineer will coordinate & review the schedule and KNPC Team Leader of the contract has overall
responsibility for the quality of Schedule Management process.
Developed resource estimate should be kept for KNPC use and not to be shared with the Bidders.
Team Leader of the contract should make sure the schedule verification is conducted by subject matter experts outside the
project team to have cold eye review.
EPC Contractor
Awarded EPC Contractor will be responsible to develop Project Schedule (level 6) and maintain Schedule Management
Plan during Project Implement Stage.
A Guideline to develop EPC Schedule during Project Design Stage by FEED developer
EPC Schedule:
Development of EPC schedule commences once the draft scope of work is ready; schedule should fully align with
Project WBS. Top down approach should be taken with identifying key milestones and major elements for works in
each WBS; sequence of work elements and respective position in project time line. Once agreement on higher-level
schedule is achieved, FEED developer will go through the process as mentioned in the subsequent section for
identifying, sequencing, estimating resource, estimating duration and finally developing the EPC schedule for
approval by KNPC.
Project Management Guideline and forms must be used while developing the above schedule in co-ordination with
assigned KNPC Planning Engineer and Project Management Team.

38

PD Project Management Guideline


Copy Right Reserved Projects Department I - 2016

Part I: Project Design (FEED) Stage Project Management Plan for EPC Stage
1.4.1 Project Schedule Management Guide (Contd.)
Following are Key Elements, which must be taken care during finalization of EPC Schedule.

39

Project critical construction activities shall be identified during Project Design Stage (i.e. activities that are
resource or time based).
FEED developer is allowed to use historical data of past Projects of similar size and type from his archive;
preference is given to inputs from contemporary projects that he might be executing now or have done in
recent past. As every Project is unique, hence effort must be paid on critical and unique part of scope.
Due importance to be given in identifying, listing and scheduling Project Management deliverable related to
implementation of Project Management Guideline (Project Management Plan) for project implementation.
Detailed milestone schedule shall be developed by identifying and grouping milestones, naming them clearly
for start or finish of key activities.
WBS must be fully aligned with Project Management Plan giving due consideration of different work
packages.
Agree and finalize project Calendars for different phases of Project. (e.g. Engineering 5 days week,
Construction 6 days week, Shipping 7 days week, Commissioning 7 days week) indicating International /
national holidays, Ramadan / summer period for Construction.
Avoid including long duration level of effort activities in the schedule as these will mask the Critical path
and hinder Critical path analysis.
Keep the activities longer than 4 weeks duration to a bare minimum, activities in Manufacturing / Shipping
portion of schedule can be of long durations. This is essential to use the schedule as a controlling tool. Long
duration activities will mask the real critical path.
Plan Modularization and Fabrication in line with the project execution philosophy and WBS where
applicable.
Utilize the current shutdown windows of KNPC for schedule the tie-ins and if required making provision for
early Engineering and Procurement for this work. Issue EPC Schedule for review to relevant refinery
(stakeholders) also in order to get their early buy-in.
Include site clearance activities in the scope of EPC Contractor.
Review the interdependency schedule for ongoing Projects of KNPC and align project schedule to take
advantage of Shut-down/Tie-in opportunities.
Identification, Estimation and Loading of Resources e.g. Engineering Man-hours, Construction Man-hours
and Commodities, Pre-Commissioning and Commissioning Man-hours must be done.
Once the Schedule is ready, organize Schedule Workshop to quickly freeze the schedule by incorporating all
agreed comments.
Development of Project S-Curve and Manpower histogram must be based on agreed EPC Schedule.

KNPC Costing Engineer will review Cost and KNPC Project Team Leader of the Contract has overall responsibility for
the quality of Cost Management Process.
Developed Cost Estimate should be kept for KNPC use and not to be shared with awarded EPC Contractor.
Team Leader of the Contract should make sure that cost verification is conducted by third Party as a cold eye review at
the end of the Project FEED Stage or in case of major projects, after analyzing all the assumptions and risk factors, FEED
Consultant should determine contingency by utilizing @ risk software.
EPC Contractor
Awarded EPC Contractor shall report monthly cash forecasts and CAPEX spent locally to KNPC Project Team.
The FEED Developer shall prepare project cost estimate in line with following AACEI (Association for Advancement of
Cost Engineering International) Recommended Practices (RPs) to establish budget for project implementation, after
conducting Feasibility study and Front End Engineering Design (FEED), and to ascertain how expected funding (Base
line S-Curve template) will be spent during execution:
18R-97 Cost estimate classification system as applied in engineering, procurement & construction for process
industries.
34R-05 Basis of Cost Estimate
38R-06 Development of cost estimate plans
Following table highlights some of the key aspects of recommended practices, which the FEED Developer should comply
while estimating cost of a project.

Note:
Input for estimates often comes from person(s) most familiar with the scope and type of
work.
In addition, estimating always involve assumptions and guesses.
Thus, it is important not to rely solely on one source but if possible obtain estimates
from multiple sources and utilize three-point estimating technique for best estimate.

Description
Depending on cost data sources for the estimate, it is important to adjust the cost
from one geographical location to location of project site.
Location factors include productivities, labor rates, freight, taxes, duties, construction
equipment rentals, concrete-mix rates, reinforcement bar rates, field indirect,
governmental regulations etc.
Make allowances for known-unknowns in the base estimate. Such as:
Cut & waste
Material takeoff
Design growth
Market forces
Make provision for anticipated change in estimated cost due to inflation at the time
placement of orders / award of contracts.
Popular cost indices applicable for process plants:
Chemical Engineers Plant Cost Index (CEPCI)
Nelson-Farrar Cost Index

Structuring of summary estimate, under following heads, is recommended to
analyze and establish cost ratios for future references.
Direct Field Costs
Indirect Field Costs
Contractor Home Office Costs
Contractor Other Costs
Owner costs
Contingency for large size projects should be determined by utilizing @ Risk Software
after conducting cost and schedule risk analysis.
Documentation of estimate related information / details /back-up data is extremely
important and a key deliverable, which should cover / include but not limited to
the following:
Project background
Purpose of estimate
Project scope in brief
Cost management plan
Basis of estimate
Allowances
Contingency

Description

Cold eye review

It is a good practice to get the estimates reviewed by a competent third party for any
omissions / commissions.

Unit rates for potential After completion of front-end engineering, the FEED Consultant shall identify potential
changes / additional works changes / additional works that EPC Contractor may encounter during execution and
during execution by EPC provide scope description of such items with estimated unit rates.
Contractor
The list of these items with estimated unit rates and quantities shall be included in ITB
and request bidder to quote his margin applicable for all the items. In case of any
changes / additions, the Contractor receives payment as per the rate given in the
Contract plus his margin.
This will help in controlling unreasonable rates quoted by the Contractor for changes /
additions.
Increase in contract price Based on level of scope definition at FEED stage, the Feed Consultant shall provide
due to change in quantity of expected change in quantities of major items such as Pipe & Pipe fittings, Cables,
major items from FEED to Valves, Structural, MCC Feeders etc., to establish threshold limits.

Guidelines for ITB Preparation
Initiation of ITB Preparation Process
Inconsistency among different Project Teams as well anomalies while drafting ITB document. In order to avoid
anomalies in preparation of ITB documents, conduct awareness workshop for PMT for relevant ITB document to
emphasize on how to draft various Sections / Parts / Exhibits of ITB document in a structured as well consistent
manner to avoid anomalies including feedback based on lessons learned.
ITB Formulation
ITB document shall encapsulate the following:-

Ensure all such issues relevant to the Project which may have potential impact on Bidder's quote are duly
addressed in draft ITB document under Instructions to the Bidders for Bidders information, enabling them to
consider the same in their Bid price. Compile a list of such issues and use the same appropriately while
drafting new ITB documents, in future.

PMT members must familiarize themselves with all GCC clauses and terms.

Ensure that all specific issues related to the Project which are not addressed in GCC clauses, are duly
addressed under Particular Conditions of the Contract by either amending GCC clauses or adding new
clauses. In addition, compile such Particular Conditions which may be utilized, if so applicable, for future
Projects ITBs.

The Scope of Work to be defined clearly and specifically without using any generic terms using a structured
templates for defining the Scope of Work Exhibit, so that the Scope of Work for every Project could be
defined precisely in the same manner.

Only a comprehensive FINAL FEED document should form part of the ITB document. As FEED document
should be reviewed / verified comprehensively prior to its inclusion in ITB.

List all relevant backup supporting technical specifications, standards and the like documents / drawings etc.
and ensure their inclusion in ITB document squad check (PMT).

Verification to ensure that all ITB drawings reflect As-build status. In the event Refineries have carried out any
modification works, they should notify Projects Department in order to ensure as built drawings are updated.

Contract Administrative & Coordination Procedures included in ITB document should be clear, specific and
detailed without any ambiguities.

108

PD Project Management Guideline


Copy Right Reserved Projects Department I - 2016

Part II: Project Management Best Practices - Project Implement Stage


2.4.1 Project Schedule Management Guide
The Project Schedule Management Plan as part of the Bid sets the format and establishes criteria for further developing
and controlling the Project schedule during implementation stage. Post Contract award during Implementation Stage,
Schedule Management Plan shall be finalized by EPC Contractor with the help and support of KNPC project
coordination team. This will be an agreement between all parties how the EPC Contract will be managed in the
timeframe for the undertaken project.
Project Schedule Management will be repetition of the steps as done in the FEED phase for of the following
processes:
1. Plan Schedule Management
2. Schedule Development
3. Control Schedule: This process purely belongs to project implementation phase.
Responsibility
EPC Contractor
EPC Contractor is responsible to further develop Schedule Management Plan & Project Schedules (Min. level 6) using
Rolling Wave Plan technique in addition to the tools and techniques as indicated in Part I of this Guideline.
KNPC
Dedicated KNPC Project Planning Engineer shall be assigned to every capital project based on the size and
complexity. KNPC Planning Engineer will coordinate & review the schedule at various stages. KNPC Project Planning
Engineer assigned to Capital Project shall do close follow up with EPC Contractor on Project Float/Buffer
Management for both near critical and non-critical activities. EPC Contractors resources estimate must be compared
with the FEED resource estimate and shall be presented to KNPC PCG, if required gap analysis shall be done for major
positive / negative variations. KNPC Team Leader of the contract has overall responsibility for the quality of Schedule
Management process. Team Leader of the contract should make sure the schedule verification during base lining and
regular reviews are conducted by subject matter experts outside the project team to have cold eye review.

109

PD Project Management Guideline


Copy Right Reserved Projects Department I - 2016

Part II: Project Management Best Practices - Project Implement Stage


2.4.2 Guideline for Schedule Management by EPC Contractor
It is recommended to have an integrated Project Planning effort. EPC Contractor has to follow the Rolling wave plan
philosophy, broad guidelines for development sequence is given below.
Project Master Schedule (Early Works)
This is bid schedule aligned with contract milestones. Planning for Early works must be done with good detail. Effort
should be in detailed planning of Early works and getting it agreed quickly with KNPC so that project can be
monitored & controlled till the time Project E&P Schedule is finalized. (Tie-ins and Shutdown must also be aligned in
this submission)
Project Master Schedule (E&P)
Engineering & Procurement execution philosophy as well as deliverable list, delivery commitment from vendors,
perform vs sub-contract all must be pretty much clear within 12 weeks to the Contractor hence we should have a
Project Master Schedule with finalized Engineering & Procurement section by this time. It is recommended to reflect
the update status in the submission rather than schedule with zero progress. Engineering portion must be loaded with
man-hours so that a Histogram can be extracted from schedule.
Project Master Schedule (EPC)
Once the model is 30% complete Construction section finalization must be done as by this time Execution philosophy
must be pretty much in shape. Tie-ins and Shutdown schedule must be revisited once again and any opportunity for
pre-construction work must be explored and exploited.
Project Master Schedule (EPCC)
By the time model is 60% complete all the Systems and Sub-Systems must be frozen and also enough vendor
information shall be available to complete the Pre-Comm and Comm section of the schedule. This is the full integrated
schedule ready for use.
All planning deliverables must be updated parallel to the Project master schedule development. EPC Contractor must
work with KNPC for interface management and comply with KNPC interdependency schedule.

2.4.3 Key Elements, which must be taken care during various phases of EPC Schedule development
OVERALLL
It is recommended to have the Schedule WBS in standard EPC format where the 2nd level of should be
Engineering, Procurement & Sub-Contract, Construction, Pre-Commissioning & Commissioning
Calendar shall be defined for the entire duration of the project taking into consideration all factors effecting the
project timeline including but not limited to public Holidays, Summer time restrictions, Ramadan windows,
Shutdown windows etc.
Schedule Risk Analysis must be done each time the schedule is revised adding details or revision for slippage
recover is undertaken. EPC Contractor is also responsible to install Schedule Risk Assessment Software on KNPC
Server.
Project Interdependency check for any overlap between KNPC and projects outside KNPC or shutdown activities.
Remaining duration of balance works to be mentioned in days separately apart from remaining work percentage.
ENGINEERING

110

EPC contractor to optimize the duration of document review cycle and identify list of critical documents at early
project stage (FEED Phase).
EPC Contractor to submit the list of critical documents after signing the contract along with plan on how to track
and optimize the review cycle with Project End User.
PD Project Management Guideline
Copy Right Reserved Projects Department I - 2016

All approval cycles must be taken into consideration including final submission. Time and resource has to be
allotted for these activities.
Link has to be established with Vendor data and Finalization of Model and Issue for Construction P&IDs, Layouts,
GAs, Data Sheets etc.
Plan for all the different underground systems e.g. oily water, open drains, fire water etc. in detail. Link has to be
established with Model and Layout finalization.
Planning of isometric and pipe supports to be done in detail, providing link to piping fabrication / installation.
It is not recommended to have long duration level of effort activities in the schedule. Hence, EPC Contractor shall
include those man-hours in its manpower histogram providing a back-up for major non-Deliverable activities per
discipline.
Engineering Discipline wise man hours must be loaded in the Activities, the man-hours may be arrived by mapping
the Schedule activities to deliverable register.
Man-hours for various disciplines must also be loaded in 3D modelling activity.
Planning of Multiple Bulk MTOs to be done in detail and linked with the Model review stages.

PROCUREMENT

RFQs issue to vendors must be planned early in the lifecycle of project, it is recommended that once the contractor
receives comments on the MRs from KNPC, they must issue the MRs to Vendors also incorporating the comments.
Any further comments by KNPC shall be transmitted to Vendor as addendum. Approved MRs are required prior to
finalizing the POs. The above will give longer time for bidding/evaluation etc. and avoid delays.
Key Vendor Documents must be approved prior to actual Manufacturing however Vendor shall commence all PreManufacturing activities including Material sourcing, finalizing of Sub-Orders etc. once the PO is placed. These are
parallel activities to Vendor Document review.
Spares part list activity shall be schedule early giving time to KNPC for finalization and decision to purchase.
Show Packing and Ex-Delivery activities, typically 1-2 week long activity happens after FAT and before
commencement of Shipping.
Material Record Book (MRBs) preparation to be planned much early in the procurement lifecycle and first
submission shall be done within a week of FAT. MRBs must be delivered to site before Equipment delivery to
support the Installation, Pre-Commissioning and Commissioning.
SAT should be included in Construction section of schedule.
Procurement and Sub-contracting section shall be loaded with man-hours in order to be able to have a complete
manpower histogram.

CONSTRUCTION (Including Offsite Fabrication), PR-COMMISSIONING AND COMMISSIONING

111

Contractor shall provide detail for each foundation in the schedule however, at the initial stage in E&P schedule an
appropriate window of time for miscellaneous foundations must be allocated for adding required level of detail.
Detailed planning has to be done for all offsite fabrication works. Links has to be established with Bulk
procurement and site Construction.
Link must be established with delivery of fabricated/purchased items and foundation readiness. Avoid double
handling of heavy lift items.
Link must be established for piping hook-up with installation of related equipment / tanks.
Cable Tray activities must be shown separately establishing links to the respective structure / shelter erection.
Link must be established for cable termination with related equipment / tanks/ panels/ JB installation.
Windows for Instrument and valves installation activities must be allocated by adding required level of detail in
schedule.
Contractor shall provide a detailed System / Sub-System wise schedule for Pre-Commissioning and
Commissioning, however at the initial stage in E&P schedule appropriate windows should be allocated for adding
required level of detail.
