A. Drawings and other project specific documents received from the client
/Consultant / Contractors and its associates:
Step-1 Head of function / PM will study the document and decide to whom it
should be distributed.
Step-2 The planning at site will first enter the details in document master list
and take the number of copies required and prepare a document distribution list
in a register.
Step-3 Planning will put the “Controlled Copy” stamp and also the copy no on
each copy and issue to the identified users. When a revised document is
issued, it will be ensured by the document controller that the superseded
documents are withdrawn from all points of use and destroyed. In cases where
superseded document has to be preserved for record, the same shall be kept
separately after putting ‘SUPERSEDED’ stamp on it.
Step-4 Planning will maintain issue control register including its distribution.
Relevant details regarding document title, document number, issue (Revision /
Edition), Date of receipt & issue of the document in the distribution register,
signature of the recipient shall be taken on the document issue register as an
evidence of receipt of the document.
In cases where hard copies are required for distribution, the control shall be
exercised as stated in Steps 2 to 4 in para A above.
All the records identified will be codified to ensure proper identification and
traceability of the record as per the guidelines on document codification.
Format of the record will be designed and approved by Project Manager for
capturing the information in structured fashion, with easy traceability.
After the retention period for a file / register is over the record will be disposed
and new file / register for the same purpose will be created.

In addition to Site Quality team, all project engineers are required to ensure that
the defects or deviation in material or workmanship are not tolerated. If not
corrected / improved it shall be bought to the notice of Project Manager. Apart
from the criteria mentioned in the Construction Methodologies, the QC Head shall
also ensure the routine quality check up of other aspects such as:
Keep a track on resources engaged for other non major activities.
Asses the availability of resources and material for carrying out the activity as
per planned schedule.
Monitoring of Non Conformities and taking appropriate action to close the
same.
Time to time awareness training to site personnel.
Training on technical aspects related to any construction activity.
Co-ordination with Project Head for any inputs/suggestions for improvement.
Interaction with client’s QC representative to asses their views if any.
Before carrying out any construction activities at project, testing facilities for the
raw materials shall be established at site as a part of quality check. Materials
used in the construction activities shall be tested in accordance with the standard
procedures. Project QC Head shall also be responsible in setting up of the field
laboratory for testing of materials, apart from carrying out various quality checks
based on Construction Methodologies. Only calibrated lab instruments shall be
used to carry out various test as per the standards / procedures and the outputs
shall be recorded as per the WEL standard formats attached herewith in
Annexure.
Project Inspection & Test Plan has been established and required to be followed.
Refer to relevant ITP for various activities.
10.2 The type of inspection and QC checks to be carried out for different
areas of construction are as mentioned below:
The areas listed above and the Quality aspects are not limited and are broadly
mentioned to describe the general inspection and checks to be carried out.
Project Quality Head shall identify the areas/activities specific for any particular
project and shall generate the ITPs for the same. ITP will be prepared
describing product characteristics, controlling specification, verifying document,
frequency of inspection/test and inspection category.
During the execution of the Activity all the applicable inspection and test
requirements as per contract specifications / good engineering practice and
other relevant applicable codes / standards / specifications etc. is identified in
Inspection and Test Plans (ITP) for various sub-activities. Following parameters
shall be considered during the preparation of the ITP:
Where, when and how the WEL intends to engage qualified third parties (if
required) to perform inspections or testing.
The following steps will be followed for calibration of various measuring and
monitoring equipment at field testing laboratory.
a) Ensure that the adequate care is taken while selecting the measuring and
monitoring equipment with suitable specification, including range to be
measured for the full-scale range of the device, accuracy and robustness,
under specified environmental conditions.
b) Ensures that the initial calibration has been carried out prior to first use, in
order to validate the required accuracy (accuracy and precision). All
instruments shall be calibrated with traceability to National / International
Standard.
c) Test and verify periodically as specified, where appropriate, the software and
procedure controlling automatic test equipment.
d) The Quality function at site will be responsible for calibrations and will prepare
a calibration plan indicating therein the frequency of calibration, method of
calibration, accuracy required and other details as mentioned in the format.
e) Recall periodically for adjustment, repair and recalibration, keeping in
consideration the following:
i. The manufacturer’s specification
ii. Results of prior calibration
iii. The method and extent of use and
iv. Maintain their required accuracy in use
f) Evidence through a record be kept indicating the identification of the
instruments, frequency of recalibration, calibration status.
g) Document and maintain records or evidence to indicate the traceability
Prior to the completion of the project, when substantial completion has taken
place and adequate enough to make the project functionally useful, the project
management, construction management function will start collecting, storing,
updating and retrieving of relevant information of completed works / structures
of the project and ensuring that these information is checked for validity.
The facility will be handed over to the owner in accordance with the contract.
All project team members are responsible for identifying and reporting any non-
conformity found in process or activities within their area of responsibility. The
non-conformity so found shall be identified by suitable means so as to prevent
its unintended use or delivery.
Action to be initiated for all Internal / External NCR’s within 7 days from the date
of issue. Monthly summary statement to be provided with explanation of aging
NCR’s not closed. Repetition of same or similar non conformity shall be strongly
discouraged.
4) Non conformance report will consist of the following information about the
observed Product Non conformity:
12.3 Disposition:
Rework:
If a rework is needed to overcome the Non-Conformity then it will be done as
per the approved procedure. This rework will be re-inspected and tested so as
to confirm that Non-Conformity does not exist and the final product is as per the
customer’s specified requirement.
Reject:
If the Non-Conforming structure, equipment, material or activity cannot be
made fit for the process then it will be rejected. If a material, equipment or
activity is found Non-Conforming at receipt, it will be returned to the
manufacturer, supplier or originator. And the Non-Conformance report will be
submitted along with a claim statement for new equipment, material or
document.
Use as is:
In cases of Minor Non- conformities where the Non-Conforming product can be
used for the process, which will not deviate from the customer’s specified
requirement at final stage then no action will be taken and the process will
continue. This concession will be authorized.
The flow chart depicted in the subsequent page outline the established
Nonconformity control system.
