1. Purpose
The inspection and test plan is an engineering document, which defines the type and
extent of CONTRACTOR and CLIENT involvement in each phase of fabrication, control
and testing requirements and inspection.

The inspection and test plan may under no circumstances be used as a substitute for
the VENDOR's Quality Manual and/or Quality Control Plan. The VENDOR shall in any
case conduct all the tests required by contractual documents, specifications, codes and
standards, and keep the relevant documentation.

CONTRACTOR and CLIENT shall be entitled to send their inspectors to attend

inspection in the VENDOR’s workshop.

This inspection and test plan shall be used as a basis for the definition of the material
inspection plan during pre-inspection meeting.

4. General Requirements
The VENDOR shall inspect all the manufactured items to ensure that materials and
workmanship are in accordance with applicable codes, standards and specifications
indicated in the relevant Purchase Order.

All the manufactured items shall be inspected according to CONTRACTOR’S

requirements. However, the acceptance of any work and/or release of them by the
CONTRACTOR shall in no way relieve the VENDOR of any responsibility for carrying
out all the provisions of the codes and specifications.

The CONTRACTOR and CLIENT or their authorized Inspectors/Representatives shall

have free access at all reasonable time to all shops of the VENDOR or Sub-VENDOR
for inspection/witnessing of work.

5. Definition of CONTRACTOR and CLIENT / TPI Involvement

The nature of CONTRACTOR and CLIENT involvement is indicated against each
activity of fabrication and testing by means of the letters H, W, SW, R and A with the
following definitions:

H: (Hold) Point
The VENDOR cannot carry out the specified controls and tests without CONTRACTOR
and CLIENT attendance and witnessing. The VENDOR must notify CONTRACTOR by
fax of the dedicated inspection activity at least twenty (20) Calendar days in advance
and consequently CLIENT will be informed by CONTARACTOR. The VENDOR cannot
deviate from this rule unless written approval has been given by CONTRACTOR.

W:(Witness)
The VENDOR must notify CONTRACTOR of the dedicated inspection activity at least
twenty (20) Calendar days in advance and consequently CLIENT will be informed by
CONTARACTOR. Although CONTRACTOR and CLIENT witnessing is not mandatory.
If CONTRACTOR does not elect to be present, the VENDOR may proceed with his own
inspection, provided controls and test records are made available to CONTRACTOR for
review.

SW: (Spot Witness)

Spot Witness denotes to random attendance of inspector without any invitation from the
VENDOR and without advance notification by the CONTRACTOR to the VENDOR.

R: (Review) – Review of Documents

The VENDOR has either to submit to CONTRACTOR for review and comments the
documents required prior to the performance of the dedicated activity or to transmit or
make available for the review of CONTRACTOR the result of the controls and tests
conducted, as the case may be. Consequently CLIENT will be informed by
CONTARACTOR.

A: (Approval) – Approval of Documents

The VENDOR has either to submit to CONTRACTOR for comments and approvals the
documents required prior to the performance of the dedicated activity or to transmit or
make available for the approval of CONTRACTOR the result of the controls and tests
conducted, as the case may be. VENDOR is not allowed to proceed the work before
receipt of CONTRACTOR approval on the required documents.

Levels of Inspection:

Inspection levels shall be based on the criticality and complexity of the equipment, as
determined by engineering.

Level 1: Full scope inspection

In addition to the visits required for formal witness points, the inspector shall visit the
VENDOR on a regular basis to monitor work in progress. The frequency of visits will
depend on the complexity and size on the order and the quality history of the VENDOR.

Level 1*: Modified Full scope inspection

The visits required for formal witness points are to be performed.

Level 2: Limited Scope Inspection

The inspector shall visit the VENDOR to inspect a limited number of pre-determined
witness points.

Level 3: Final inspection prior to Shipment

The inspector shall provide specific instructions to the VENDOR defining the activities to
be witnessed or the details to be verified.

Level 4: No source inspection required.

The inspector shall review and accept VENDOR’s certifications, test reports and QC
data book documentation.

Level of inspection for this particular ITP is considered as level ‘1’ or ‘1*’. Level of
inspection of Long Lead Items are exception and in any case are being treated as level
‘1’.

6. VENDOR’s Quality Manual and Quality Control Plan (VQCP)

The VENDOR’s Quality Control Plan is a document, which defines in a chronological
manner the list of the operations, controls and tests in accordance with his own “know-
how” and with the requirements specified in CONTRACTOR’s requisition.

The VENDOR must issue a Quality Control Plan for each type or category of material
and component and the following information shall be clearly specified against each
operation:

Reference documents (drawings, procedures, etc …)

Acceptance criteria (code, etc …)
Recording documents for control and tests.
Involvement of the Quality Control department of the VENDOR and/or his Sub-VENDOR.

The VQCP will have to include all CONTRACTOR and CLIENT inspection activities
defined in inspection and test plan as well as all inspection activities scheduled by the
third party inspection company.

For component of inspection levels 1 and 2 the VENDOR’s VQCP shall be submitted
compulsorily to CONTRACTOR and CLIENT for comments before the Pre-Inspection
Meeting or starting the manufacturing. Vendor’s Quality Manual shall also be submitted
to CONTRACTOR upon request.

7. Inspection Activities
For detail of inspection activities, see relevant inspection and test plan in attachment # 1
as minimum requirements which shall be finalized during PIM.
