Preventive action measures will be implemented to mitigate the reoccurrence of a non-


conformance or potential non-conformance, identifying their probable cause, taking pre-emptive
action and reviewing effectiveness of action taken.

Project Management takes corrective actions appropriate to the effect of non-conformities


encountered, to eliminate the cause of non-conformity and prevent their recurrence.

It could become necessary to undertake corrective action after:

Detection of non-conformity related to CONTRACTOR service.


Detection of non-conformity related to vendor / subcontractors.
Detection of non-conformity arising from:

• Internal audits
• Audits by OWNER
• Vendors / Subcontractors re-evaluation reports
• Formal / informal Information received by CONTRACTOR Quality.

The corrective action normally consists of revision of procedures, work instructions or plan. The
evaluation of effectiveness of the actions is done during the follow-up audits under the responsibility
of appointed auditors. Project Management implements preventive actions to eliminate the cause of
potential non-conformities, in order to prevent their occurrence.

Potential non-conformities and their causes can be determined through examination of a number of
information sources such as:

• Audit reports issued by CONTRACTOR’s Quality or Third parties.


• Periodical / final project reports.
• Vendor / Subcontractor audits or re-evaluations.
• Project review meetings.
• Formal / informal Information received by CONTRACTOR Quality.

30.0 MONITORING AND MEASUREMENT OF PRODUCT
