B. The Quality Assurance Program:

Contract Quality System:

The main purpose of the Quality Assurance System (Hereinafter referred to as the
“QS”) to be defined by the Quality Assurance Manual is to ensure that the project(s)
operations (processes, resources and environmental factors) which may affect the
quality of works are/will be under control.

The QS places effective controls on all critical functions of contract execution and
clearly identifies all aspects related to:

 Means of documentation of the Quality procedures,

 Quality policy,
 Project organization,
 Contract procedures,
 Design control,
 Procurement,
 Records retention.

2. Contract Quality Plan:

Overall Contract Quality Plans covering all activities regarding design, production,
installation, tests and commissioning are developed and maintained. These plans shall
clearly identify the following quality related activities;

 Review of the Contract documents to bring to the attention of the

Engineer/Employer (and other related parties are appropriate) any
deficiencies, conflicts, code problems or clarifications that may be required
(commencing at tender stage),
 Design and development planning, identification and documentation of design
input and output, review, verification and validation of designs appropriate for
safe and proper functioning and construction (commencing at tender stage),

 Ensuring that the procurement documents incorporate appropriate quality

requirements, and evaluation, review and approval of the
suppliers/subcontractors’ qualification and materials/services quality
including verification at manufacturer’s premises as required (commencing at
tender stage)

 Preparation of required Construction/Erection Procedures, control that the

pertinent issues of appropriate documents are available at relevant locations
for the implementation of the staff to enable and verify that the design and
construction quality standards are met (commencing at tender stage).
TURCON is thoroughly conversant with the understanding that tailored
procedures are to be developed to meet unique, specific requirements of the
projects/contracts. Examples/verification of such an understanding through
copies of implemented procedures in Great Man Made River Sirt End
Reservoir Project in Libya and LNG Import Terminal Project in Turkey to this
effect may be provided upon request.

 Verification that the supervisors and workers are skilled in their craft and
familiar with the Contract(s) quality requirements, and provide further
training, when required, to improve skills to meet special construction
requirements,

 Submission for review and approval of the Employer/Engineer materials,

methods/procedures related with the quality of works as defined by the
Contract, maintain all relevant quality records to demonstrate conformance to
specified requirements and the effective operation of the system,

 Assurance that non-conforming materials, parts, or components are identified

and not incorporated in the works,

 Assurance that deficiencies are reworked or repaired (by approved

methods/procedures) to meet the Contract quality requirements and the
corrective action is taken to prevent re-occurrence,

 The audits to be exercised shall ensure that the function is completed “Right
the first time, every time” and not left to inspections at final stages where
exposure of failure may result in costly rework and delay in project schedule.
3. Inspection and Test Plans:

The Inspection and Test plans based on specifications and applicable codes/standards
are developed to ensure that the quality requirements are met.

The Inspection and test plans for the products/services indicate (as applicable) the
following;

 The stages (surveys, engineering, procurement, construction, etc),

 The process/product to be controlled,

 The characteristics to be controlled,

 Sampling data/period,

 The test/inspection/verification/validation activities (abbreviated as “t/i/v/v

activities” hereafter) to be exercised,

 The reference codes/standards/specification clauses/procedures for the t/i/v/v

activities to be exercised,

 The acceptance criteria for the t/i/v/v activities to be performed,

 The location/equipment anticipated for the t/i/v/v activities.

The inspection and test plans to be developed prior to commencement of each

work are followed in all phases by the responsible staff assigned for each control
without any deviation. Any non-conformance is reported, evaluated and
corrective/preventive actions are planned and immediately implemented. All
activities related to inspection and tests are subject to Owner’s surveillance at all
times during project’s realisation.

4. Audit:

Contract Quality System clearly identifies all aspects related to internal and
supplier/subcontractor quality audits. Schedules of planned audits are prepared and
submitted to the Owners, who (or Owner’s representative) may attend or participate
in any of them.

All audits are documented and such documentation is subject to Owner’s review and
time.
