• Educate and implement the Quality Management System (QMS) across project teams to promote continuous quality awareness.

2. Material & Supplier Quality Control

• Perform supplier quality activities: capability assessments, pre‑inspection meetings, stage inspections with hold/witness points, and final MDR/QA dossier reviews.


• Verify material conformity and traceability through MTCs (EN 10204), PMI, heat/lot traceability, preservation, and consumable control
  

3. Welding, Fabrication & NDT Oversight

• Review/qualify WPS/PQR per ASME IX/API 1104, monitor welder qualifications, essential variables, hardness checks, and post‑weld heat treatment.


• Manage NDT requirements including MT, PT, UT, RT, PAUT, TOFD; verify procedures per ASME V/ISO 9712 and ensure inspection acceptance meets criteria.


• Conduct quality inspections on welding, piping, structural works, and mechanical components to ensure compliance with standards.

4. Construction & Commissioning Quality Assurance

• Oversee QC activities during construction: fit‑up/alignment, torque/tensioning, dimensional checks, cleanliness/flushing (ISO 4406), coatings (surface prep, DFT, adhesion), E&I tests (IR testing, continuity, function tests).


• Witness and validate pressure testing, FAT/SAT, valve testing, wellhead QC, and E&I loop checks with calibrated instruments.

5. Documentation & Reporting

• Maintain detailed inspection records, test reports, NCR logs, calibration records, and quality statistics.


• Compile MDRs, weld maps, NDE traceability, certificates, and handover documentation supporting mechanical completion.

6. NCR Management & Root Cause Analysis

• Issue, track, and close Non‑Conformance Reports (NCRs); lead root cause investigations (5‑Why, Fishbone analysis); define corrective/preventive actions.


• Propose process improvements to reduce recurring defects and improve quality performance.
