5.3.4 Procedure

5.3.4.1 There are two different ways by which non-conforming works can be addressed. The
two processes are as follows.
5.3.4.2 Non-conformance identified by the Engineer
5.3.4.2.1 If QAM / QAE receive a Non-conformance Report including any arising from
complaint or a letter of failed laboratory test results from the Engineer regarding
nonconforming work or material, he will then locate and segregate the material
or work noted on the Engineer’s NCR or letter.

5.3.4.3 Non-conformance identified by the Contractor


37
Project Quality Plan
a If SE / F identifies work or material which does not conform to the contract
requirements, he will then segregate the material or work and report the
nonconforming work or material to the PM / Sect-M / SA for disposition.
b The PM together with Sect-M, SA, SE and F review the extent and severity of the
nonconformity and works out a proposal for the disposition of the
nonconforming material or work.

5.3.4.4 The disposition for material may include the following:


a Concessional acceptance or permission to use the material
c Repair and re-inspected and/or tested (to make acceptable to the Client / Eng)
d Reject or scrap

5.3.4.5 The disposition for work may include the following:


a Concessional acceptance or permission (to release the work to the next stage)
b Repair and re-inspected and/or tested (to make acceptable to the Engineer)
c Rework (to make it conform to the specified requirements)

5.3.4.6 The PM together with Sect-M, SA, SE and F investigate the alleged non-conformance
and if agreement with the Engineer or own staff, would take the following action:
a Raise a Non-conformance Report.
b Complete Part 1: providing full details of the nonconformity as required in
Form QAP 003/F1 and submits to the QAM / QAE.
c Taking action to eliminate or fix the detected non-conformance
5.3.4.7 Note:1
a If the Contractor disagrees with the Nonconformity as notified by the Engineer, the
PM or his delegate shall write to the Engineer and request that the Engineer
withdraw the Non-conformance Report.
5.3.4.8 Note 2 :
a Minor defects, which can be rectified within 24 hours and are not a re-occurrence are
exempted from this procedure. In such cases, the SE or F conducting the
inspection or testing instruct the workers or the sub-contractor to carry out the
rectification immediately and submit request for re-inspection and/or testing.
b In case of failing laboratory test results (e.g. soil compaction test results, welding test
results, bituminous materials testing and air/water test results), the QAM /
QAE review the detail of the nonconforming test results with relevant Sect-M /
SE / F and agree on the corrective action. As a result from such review, it may

38
Project Quality Plan
not necessary to raise a non-conformance report if the worked can be rectified
within 24 hours after being identified. A register is adequate as a record
together with the relevant test reports. QAE / SE prepare a Material Testing
Register (QAP 006/F1) to record laboratory test results for soil, welding,
bituminous and air/water tests).
5.3.4.9 Upon receipt of the completed NCR, the QAM / QAE verifies when the works in
respect of the nonconforming works or material has been satisfactorily completed and
signs Part 4 of the NCR to close out.
5.3.4.10 If specifically required by the Engineer, after the contractor complete Part 1 and Part
2 of NCR (Form QAP 003/F1), the QAM / QAE submits the NCR to the Engineer for
review.
5.3.4.11 Upon receipt of the Engineer’s response in the respect of the submitted NCR, the PM
together with Sect-M, SA, SE and F completes the rectification work and request for re-
inspection. The PM / Sect-M shall confirm the satisfactory completion of the correction
and corrective actions as agreed in Part 2 of NCR and signs Part 3.
5.3.4.12 When the re-inspection has been signed off, the QAM / QAE reviews effectiveness of
the corrective actions and signs Part 4 of the NCR and where necessary submits to the
Engineer for closed out.

Project Quality Plan
5.4.4.5 At the start of the project, PM / SA identify the need to employ a subcontractor /
supplier and accessed the company approved lists before employing them.
5.4.4.6 Dept-GM of CD maintains a list of approved subcontractors for each trade or service.
The head of Purchasing Department maintains a list of approved suppliers for major
material or equipment. The approved lists are subject to document control and copies of the
approved list distributed to the QAM, Dept-GMs and PMs.
5.4.4.7 Evaluation of Sub-contractors and Suppliers:
5.4.4.8 If a sub-contractor / supplier is not on the approved lists, or a sub-contractor having a
new scope of work, PM / SA selects new subcontractor / supplier, complete form QAP
004/F6 and submit to the relevant Dept-GMs of PMD / BDD / CD for approval.
Subcontractors / suppliers are reviewed and selected for recommendation to Dept-GMs
based on their ability to meet the stated contract and company requirements including
quality, safety and environmental. PM / SA also ensures that that the subcontractor /
supplier meet the following;

5.4.4.8.1 Past job performance


5.4.4.8.2 Technical capability

41
Project Quality Plan
5.4.4.14 Based on the reports from PM / SA of each year in which the subcontractor / supplier
is involved, the Dept-GMs upon consultation with MR and other senior management on
the management review meeting will decide either to retain the subcontractor / supplier on
the list or removes from the approved lists (See Note 1 and 2). The new approved lists will
be available on/or before 31st July and 31st January of the next year. The new approved
list again will be distributed to the QAM, Dept-GMs and PMs.
5.4.4.15 Dept-GM of CD will further categorize the new approved lists as follows ;
5.4.4.15.1 Section I – are sub-contractors or suppliers (Approved List) who are actively
working in a project and have achieved performance rating of at least 55% in
the evaluation conducted.
5.4.4.15.2 Section II – are sub-contractors or suppliers (Information / Reference List)
who have no transaction for a period of at least 2 years and are retained for
information and/or reference only. Any new order for the purchasing of work or
purchasing of material follow the same process (i.e., the PM should obtain prior
approval from Dept-GMs of PMD / BDD / CD using QAP 004/F1)
5.4.4.15.3 Section III – are sub-contractors or suppliers (Under Observation) who have
failed to achieve performance rating of at least 55%, or “Poor” in Section 2-
Compliance with Safety and Environmental Obligations. Any new order for the
purchasing of work or purchasing of material shall not be accepted unless
approved by CMO, that process shall follow (i.e., the PM should obtain prior
approval from Dept-GMs of PMD / BDD / CD using QAP 004/F1. During the
observation period, the PM / PQS should send a warning letter to the sub-
contractor or supplier for poor performance. If the performance of the sub-
contractor or supplier in question will not improve during the 6 months period,
it will be removed from this list.
5.4.4.15.4 Section IV – are sub-contractors and suppliers (Blacklisted) who have failed
to achieve the performance rating of at least 55% and has not improve during the
given 6 months period after the evaluation. Any sub-contractors or suppliers who
are blacklisted will not be employed again.
5.4.4.16 NOTE: Where a subcontractor / supplier fails to achieve the requirements of at least
55% or a “Poor” in Section 2 - “Compliance with Safety and Environmental Obligations”,
the DeptGMs will monitor the relevant subcontractor / supplier for 6 months. During this
period, any new Purchase Order for the subcontractor / supplier will be signed by the
Dept-GM.
Meanwhile, the PM will send letter to subcontractor / supplier to request improvement for
his product or services.
5.4.4.17 The final decision to remove a subcontractor / supplier from the approved list will be
reviewed on the management review meeting.
5.4.4.18 Relative Score = Total score awarded / Highest score (i.e. no. of applicable item x 5) x 100%.

42
Project Quality Plan
5.4.4.19 A less than 55 score of section 1, 2, 3, and 4 will be mandatory, “Fail” in overall
performance and report will be rated as “Adverse”. Subcontractor/Supplier will be
automatically removed from the list

Client/Engineer (normally 24 hours) prior to inspection.
5.6.4.16If the inspector is satisfied with the quality of work, he will inform the SE / F / S,
signs the inspection form (RICF / RSCF) and return the original to the contractor
5.6.4.17 If minor defect is noted, which can be rectified within 24 hours, SE / F / S instructs
the workers or subcontractor to carry out the rectification immediately. Any work
that is rectified will be re-inspected.
5.6.4.18 If major defect is noted, it will be dealt as nonconforming work in accordance with
the Operating Procedure QAP 003: Control of Non-conforming Product. Sect-M /
SA / SE / S / F raised non-conformance report and submit to the QAM / QAE.

Note:
In the case of failed laboratory test results (e.g. soil compaction test results, welding
test results, bituminous materials testing and air/water test results), the QAM / QAE
review the detail of the nonconforming test results with relevant Sect-M / SE / F and
