The document outlines several quality initiatives implemented by a project to improve project quality for offshore gas facilities. The key initiatives included developing a quality management dashboard to provide real-time status of major activities, implementing a schedule Q compliance matrix to map requirements and identify gaps, and developing a readiness matrix program to monitor pre-requisites for upcoming activities. Additional quality assurance assessments and weekly walkthroughs were also conducted to verify compliance. The initiatives helped ensure all activities started on schedule with full readiness, identified potential issues early to prevent delays, and aimed to deliver the facilities with zero punch points before sail away.

PROJECT QUALITY INITIATIVES
HASBAH OFFSHORE GAS FACILITIES INCREMENT – II
BI: 10-01902-002

2. List of quality initiatives shared and its benefits:
Developmentand Implementation of Quality ManagementDashboard:
Quality Management Dashboard is a status dashboard where the data of all Major Processes
and quality deliverables as per schedule Q and SAEP 1160 requirements are captured at one
place with graphical presentation for easy understanding which is being updated on weekly
basis.
Benefits:
It gives the real time status of all major activities which are as follows:
 Welding Procedure qualification
 Readiness and approval of Quality Procedures
 Status of Receipt Material
 Status of Manpower compliance
 Status of Quality Notification
 PQI trend
 Status of Project Weekly Repair Rate
 Status of Quality Assurance Activities like Focus assessments, Audits, training and KOM
 Status of RFIs
 Quality Deliverables as per Schedule Q.
Implementation of Schedule Q Compliance Check Matrix.
All Schedule Q requirements were mapped Clause by Clause to identify the Gaps between
Schedule Q requirements and existing Yard Quality System. Accordingly, the applicable
System Procedures, Project Procedures, Check sheets and Controls were defined, modified
and implemented. Total of 219 clausal requirements of Schedule Q were identified as
applicable to yard scope which are being complied and monitored on weekly basis.
Benefits:
It helped to meet the requirements of Schedule Q and eliminate the chances of violations
which might cause impact on Project PQI, progress and schedule.

3. Implementation and developmentof program for readinessmatrixfor each
new activity starting in 30 days.
Readiness matrix is a program which identifies the pre-requisites (Procedure, ITP, WPS,
Skilled Manpower etc...) along with the startup dates against each planned activity. Each
activity is monitored against the day left for the start-up with respect to readiness of all the
pre-requisites. Each approval in any requirement contributes for increment in readiness
score. An alert system is made for the readiness score of each activity vs the days left for
activity startup. This program gives alert in advance about area of concerns which might
cause delay in start of the upcoming activity so that required action can be taken on timely
manner to avoid interruption in the start-up of activity.
Benefits:
As of now, all the activities in the project were started as per the planned schedule with
100% readiness which helped to eliminate major issues in the project. KOM were conducted
on time prior to start of the activities with the help of this quality tool.
Zero punch pointdrive to deliver the facilities with zero punch pointbefore sail
away
Zero punch point drive is a program developed with the aim to deliver the facilities with
zero punch point. ZERO punch point drive will be achieved by Advance reporting & closing of
Punch Points by the project quality team prior to final official walkthroughs, categorizing the
punch points by time limits to accelerate the closeout on timely manners and weekly review
of open punch items. Preliminary walkthroughs for each modules have been planned level
wise on weekly basis. Assurance of program implementation, planning of walkthroughs and
tracking and follow up of punch points will be monitored by Contractor QA Manager and
supervised by Company Inspection representative.
Benefits:
It will help to identify the potential punch points at advance stage and to minimize the work
at offshore.

4. Implementation of additionalQuality assurance focusassessment:
Apart from the weekly focus assessments, additional QA assessments are being conducted
by Company inspection for ongoing critical activities. Total 57 numbers of QA assessments
are planned during the project construction phase out of which 31 have been conducted so
far.
Benefits:
It helps to verify the compliance to Project quality requirements at activity level and
effectiveness of the Contractor’s Quality System.
Weekly walkthroughsfor verification of equipment’spreservation
requirements:
Company inspection along with contractor conduct weekly walkthroughs dedicated for
verification of equipment preservation. Procedural requirement along with the manufacture
recommendation are mapped in the preservation matrix which is monitored regularly
during the walkthroughs.
Benefits:
It helps to verify the compliance to preservation requirement as per SAMMS &
Manufacturer’s recommendations. As of now, there is no any major violations identified
with respect to preservation of materials. Senior Management from vendor (M/S Lewa) had
appreciated the implementation of preservation system at yard.
In addition to above, following Initiatives were also shared with the Hazira
Team:
 Readiness Verification of Equipment storage facility as per storage area classification like
Enclosed & Climatic, Enclosed Non Climatic Controlled and Open storage.
 Implementation of Dimensional Check sheet for received materials during receiving
inspection.
 Established proactive approach by initiating more number of proactive notification to
avoid violation LBEs
