programme that identifies key dates in accordance with the contractual requirements. The
design programme will be reviewed regularly to monitor the progress during the design
phase. Design Consultants / Sub-contractors carrying out designs are required to submit
Design Management Plan to address the design requirement including the identification of
resources, the organizational, the technical interfaces, the processes involved and the design
documents necessary.

China Harbour Engineering Co., LTD Quality Manual
The design output shall be in a form that it can be verified and validated against design
input requirements and to design acceptance criteria. There will be full and appropriate
documentation of the finally agreed design. The design will identify any characteristics of
the design that are necessary to the safe and proper use of the designed.
All design activities are planned and provided sufficient resources to carry out design-
related tasks in accordance with the design programme. The extent and frequency of the
review will be determined at the start of the design work and will be documented.
At suitable stages or at completion, design output shall be reviewed and verified to ensure
that the design met the input requirements. Where specified, such review and verification
are to be carried out by an Independent Checking Engineer (ICE) who shall issue a
certificate as proof that design review and verification has been carried. Alternatively,
design review and verification may be carried out by the Company own staff before
submissions to client representative for his validation.
At suitable stages or at completion of design works and prior to incorporation into the
works, designs are validated for conformity as capable of meeting the client requirement for
the specified application or intended use, where known. Design validation is to be carried
out by the client representative. Alternatively, design validation may be carried out by the
Company own staff prior to incorporation into the works following receipt of the design
works from the Design Consultant / Sub-contractor.
Changes to any design will only take place after formal documented approval of such
changes. Any changes shall be review, verified, validated and approved before
implementation. A register of design changes will be established which contain the brief
description of the changes and actions implemented.

to the requirements of ISO 9001: standards, quality manual, operating procedures, project
quality plan, management procedures manual and whether the Quality Management System
is effectively maintained. The detailed procedure of internal audit is in accordance with
Quality Assurance Operating Procedure QA-OP14: Internal Audit.
Internal Audits will be scheduled and conducted at least twice a year taking account of the
type, status and importance of the activities to be audited. Audits will be conducted by
trained personnel who are not directly responsible for the functions being audited. Follow
up of non-compliance is controlled by the requirements of Quality Assurance Operating
Procedure QA-OP11: Corrective and Preventive Action.
CHEC monitors and measures to ensure that project sites and functional departments
operations achieved the measurable target set in Appendix B: Key Performance Indicator.
When project sites or functional department do not achieve the required target, corrective
action shall be documented on the Non-conformance Report and appropriate action will be
taken by responsible department manager or project manager. The achievement of the Key

Performance Indicator will be monitored through Internal Audit and site inspections and
action for improvement will be undertaken in the Management Review Meetings meetings.
CHEC monitors and measures construction work to verify that the contractual requirements
have been met. All materials to be incorporated in the permanent works will be subject to
receiving inspection and/or verification of documentation, all construction activities will be
subject to in-process inspection and testing before the next activity commence and where
applicable, final inspection will be carried out for all completed works prior to handover.
The records of inspection and tests shall be maintained. The detailed procedure by which
monitoring and measurement of materials and construction works are carried out is outlined
in Quality Assurance Operating Procedure QA-OP08: Inspection, Testing, Identification and
Traceability.
CHEC ensures that all works and/or materials found to be non-conforming to the specified
requirements are identified by marking the non-conformity and/or segregating the works
and/or materials while awaiting disposition.
Analysis of data
Data demonstrating the suitability and effectiveness of the Quality Management System to
evaluate where continual improvement can be made is presented and analyzed during
Management Review Meetings including customer satisfaction surveys, internal audits,
performance rating reports, sub-contractors / suppliers assessments, etc.
The results of the analysis provides information relating to customer satisfaction and
conformity to project requirements, characteristics and trends including opportunities for
preventive action, and sub-contractors / suppliers performance which shall be used as a tool
to facilitate continual improvement in the Quality Management System.
The detailed procedure by which analysis of data shall be carried out is outlined in
accordance with Quality Assurance Operating Procedure QA-OP16: Data Analysis.

Improvement
All the Operating Procedures, Project Procedures, Applicable Forms, Codes of Practice,
Quality Plan Template to be maintained could be reasonably amended to meet the
requirement of local Laws and Regulation, specific Clients requirements or Companys
updated regulations or Project Teams determination, provided the ISO 9001: 2008 is fully
and better met and the changes are well documented and maintained for review.
CHEC will continually improve the effectiveness of the Quality Management System
through use of quality policy, quality objectives, audit results, analysis of data, corrective
and preventive actions and Management Review. Continual improvement activities will be
reviewed during Management Review Meetings and will be documented on the Non-
conformance Report form.
Corrective Actions may arise from internal audits, customer complaints, Management
Review Meetings and during the execution of the construction works. The Quality
Assurance Engineer or Project Manager will review all requests for Corrective Actions to
determine the feasibility of the requested actions and to assign responsibilities for
determining the problems root cause and evaluating the appropriate actions to ensure that
the non-conformity does not recur.
Corrective Actions will be determined and implemented accordingly and the results will be
recorded in the Non-conformance Report and appropriate registers.
The detailed procedure for implementing corrective actions is Quality Assurance Operating
Procedure QA-OP11: Corrective and Preventive Action.

CHEC implements preventive actions in the same manner as those for Corrective Actions,
although Preventive Actions are undertaken to eliminate causes of potential non-
conformities. Such proposals will be processed in a similar manner as Corrective Actions.
Also, whenever corrective actions are implemented, consideration is always given to
determine steps needed to initiate preventive action to prevent potential non-conformities in
similar situations. Preventive actions may be initiated independently of a corrective action
in order to prevent potential non-conformities. Preventive actions and their verification are
maintained in the quality system database.
The detailed procedure for implementing preventive actions is Quality Assurance Operating
Procedure QA-OP11: Corrective and Preventive Action.
