6.12 Material Traceability

Material traceability is defined as the method and procedure to trace piping material and
component back to the original material certificate or to the material specification, grade,
size and schedule/rating, by means of proper identification marking of material and
component, such as heat number, code number, colour coding or equipment, throughout
warehousing, pre-fabrication, construction and operation period.
When there is a project quality problem, the material can be traced back according to the
project location, construction date, use of materials, according to the material ledger,
material receipt and purchase documents of materials; The construction process can also
be traced as problems with material use are found. The traceability of the construction
process can be traced according to the parts of the project with problems, the
construction date, the operation personnel, and the relevant construction records, quality
evaluation tables and construction logs of the project.
6.9.1 Tagged Item
Each Tagged item completed at Vendor’s shop shall be identifiable and traceable by
Tag Number and accompanied with Vendor’s Manufacturing Data Record.
Shell and annular bottom plate materials shall be traceable back to the original material
certificate after assembly along with an as-bult drawings.
6.9.2 Pipe materials in receiving stage
Material shall be placed in the designated receiving area segregated from materials
categories, in order to proceed with traceable continuity. This segregation shall be
maintained throughout all receiving and dispensing activities.
CONTRACTOR shall perform receiving inspection to check the marking, colour coding,
overage, shortage and damage of delivered materials.
In addition to the above, CONTRACTOR shall check the receipt of “Inspection Release
Notice (RN)” corresponding to the materials delivered. Materials without such a
document shall remain in the designated receiving hold areas, until the acceptable
document will be available.

Materials with “Inspection Release Notice” shall be examined, by CONTRACTOR, to

verify that specification marking fully meets the project requirements and corresponds
to the accepted certification.
Nonconforming materials shall be segregated in the nonconforming hold area and
subsequently processed similarly to nonconforming process.
6.9.3 Prefabrication and Construction Stage
Materials shall be controlled and identified by material identification, which can trace
back to original Material Certificate. In addition, piping materials shall be controlled by
colour coding. When cutting pipes, identification marks shall be transferred and be
identified (colour code shall still remain) so that each pressure retaining piping material
shall have the traceability to the original Material Certificate, grade, siza and
schedule/rating after assembly.
CONTRACTOR shall monitor correct material identification and/or color coding
throughout prefabrication, construction and installation activities.
At the completion of an individual fabrication, CONTRACTOR shall verify and
document on the drawings that correct material identification was made and physical
material identification is legible.
