Narrative
Suggested Action
1. Construction shall do walkdown prior to QC walkdown.
2. The line responsible construction personnel (Supervisor/Foreman) shall always be
with QC during walkdwon to clear the balance items to achieve better quality in
constrcution and to reduce the amount of rework.
Procurement Engineer shall be mobilized to site for atleast 3 days a week and the
other 2 days in HO

Walkdowns done by QC
personnel without Construction
prior check
P
Y
The full project was dependant on Quality Punch lists
which costed lot of manhours, disputes and delay in the
completion of construction cause the construction was
depending upon the punch list to complete the actual
balance scope of works rather than completing the job and
offering it and Each line was walked down by QC 2-3 times
for hydro and 2-3 times for reinstatement.
2
Lack of expeditor for
procurement of materials and
preparation of LPO.
P
Y
It took lot of efforts from different people from different
departments to work upon different MRF's due to the
unavaialbility of this personnel in the site.

270 structure misalignment for
not following the ITP. (NCR)
P
N
The ITP requirements were overridden by the construction
Team, by not doing the proper survey and without
following the sequence for grout release which lead to
serious complications in the alignment of the main grids
and columns and lead to consequences.
1. Construction team be aware of the minimum std. tolerances atleast from Engineer
level and to be strictly followed.
2. Periodical training to the engineers, Supervisor and Surveyors required from QC
2. The columns/grids shall not be relased to grouting or for the next level with out
alignment by QC and Surveyor and Bolt tightening inspections (AS per ITP)

Installation of slip critical
structural connections
P
Y
The slip critical connections were installed in painted
condition rather than with removed paint condition.
Though this was mistake from BPJV and Target, the
consequences were to be faced by Target by welding the
connections.
The slip critical joints are to be identified in the beginning of the project, to be made
aware which one is a slip critical to the site supervisor and Inspector level and
proper training to be conducted by QA/QC personnel to eradicate this error in future
projects.

Uncontrolled documents and
drawings in the site and offices
Lack of Quality Inductions to the
required personnel and
awareness of the project quality
requirements

Document control procedure has to be established and to be made followed by the
full project under the guidance and monitoring of QA Engineer.
Internal Surveillance and sudden Audits shall be carried out by QA Engineer to avoid
the procudure implementing failure.
Registers of Master, Control, Superseded documents and drawings are to be
maintained by DC under the as per the documented procedure.
QA shall educate the control copy, superseded and Numbering purpose to the site
level.
A separate test packs team has to be considered establised either from Quality or
from Technical for this sort of SMP projects.
N
The distribution matrix was not followed.
Controlled copy numbers were not followed.
Old revision drawings are not marked as superseded
Lack of exposure to site teams about the control copy
requirements.
Few drawings were issued by BPJV through email and also
to site without being transmitted to DC.

3. One dedicated QA Engineer with an associate QA (If required) shall be made avail
from the beginning of the project.
Quality Management
The Site quality Manager/Lead shall be noimnated from the beginning of the project
to understand the actual project scope of works, to study the contract and for
preparation PQP.
Project quality Manpower shall be planned and prepared by the Division Quality
Manager & Project Quality Manager during the initial histogram/ plan preparation
stage according to the project requirements, to make sure that the required
personnel for the project are identified and mobilized in the right time.
Manpower plan to be reviewed by Site QC Manager every month to meet the
project requirements.
1
Under estimation of QC manpower required and their role in
the project
P
Y
The amount of QC Manpower required was verily
underestimated which lead to the hiring of Manpower and
caused an impact on budget as it was unplanned.
The need for inspectors in different areas of site, covering
the different disciplines of the project, no of walkdowns,
etc. was not taken into consideration from the beginning of
the project.

Lack of;
Periodical Internal Audits
Internal Observations/NCR's.

Periodical trainings and audits were not carried out to
required extent convering the project manpower and with Internal sudits shall be carried out at perdiodic intervals as per the Project Quality
Plan and QA Engineer shall carry out unplanned Audits to raise NCR's.

Y
The shortfall of QA engineer can be clearely identified;
1. The Quality logs were found to be unupdated like
(System handover, PTR, Calibation, etc.)
2.
3
Lack of;
Timely Quality Logs for systems,
Unupdated existing logs
The required logs are to be prepared according to project requirements and shall be
under QA monitoring and to be mainstained BY QC DCC.
QA Walkdowns are to be conduted at required frequency suiting the project to
identify and Highlight the observations.

High weld repair %
Inconsistent Material Inspections.
P
P
Y
The repair % of the welders went upto 24 % in the project.
Firstly, RT on the welds from BPJV started 6 months after
the welding commenced in the site and no one knew what
was the quality of the welds from the beginning of project.
The repair % Caluculation was not according the B 31.3 and
the same was not conisdered by Target Quality Team.
Lack of QC coverage for the welding activities in different
areas of the site was one of the big setback as the required
Inspectors was a serious setback.
Unacceptable; Fit-up, consuambales usage and lack of
resurces like Wind protection Tent, Welder tools,
Continuous breakdown of the Mother Oven played a major
role in the welds failure.
There were huge porosity problems with E7018-1 Adhor
eloectrodes which resulted in RT repairs.
1. This % of repair shall be monitored from Day 1 of the project per welder. The first
two production welds by any welder shall be Radiogrphed and the quality of weld
has to examined. If the quality is found low, then the welder has to be sent for
further training and repeat the same.
2. In order to acheive the above, the NDE contractor has to be finalised before the
beginning of the project, gate pass, safety inductions, and all approval need to be
done and the crews to be made ready for the same. The LPO for NDE contractor
shall be reviewed and accepted site Quality Lead as weel.
3. The client spec requirements shall be well read and understood by Site Quality
Manager to agree and document the % caulucations in the beginning of the prject.
4. The QC inspectors, with previous experience and necessary certifications shall be
made avail in site in right time.
5. Demo and testing of the welds done with Adhor E7018-1 electrodes shall be
carried out prior to use of these electrodes in prouction from next projects.

Improper Mixing is one of the Major reason and setback in
the process of grouting Epoxy as well as Cementatious.
Ofcourse the materials supplied by Sika itself was having a
problem and the full batch of materials were taken back by
Sika and replaced with another Batch.
Proper and suffiencent amount of Mixing tools to be procured or to be made avail
depending upon the scope of grouting works in the project.
The manpower shall be skilled enough or to trained before to get rid of this sort of
problems.
Demo from Manufacturer (Depending upon the batch quantity) is
recommended/suggested.
The manufacturer requirements shall not be violated.

Lack of pressure grouting tools for tank grouting in time,
resulted in Underfill of grout in the Tank COD area and
minor gaps.
