6.9.3 Risks Related to Quality
The quality of work is inherently tied to the competence of the Contractors and the diligence of the Supervision Teams. The competence or otherwise of contractors
shall be considered at the time of bid evaluation and prior to the award of any contract.
The quality of supervision however is influenced by the following factors: •
Ensuring that supervision staff levels are fully manned with competent, honest, qualified and experienced personnel.
• The provision of properly equipped laboratories with properly trained
operators for each package. Package supervision comes under the responsibilities of the immediate supervision
teams and the relevant DSC but the Quality Assurance Engineer from CTC, when mobilized, will periodically monitor their performance.
Until now, the performances have not been reported by the Quality Assurance Engineer from CTC, because the works activity has not started
