requirements within its submission shall detail the methods and minimum standards for execution of all Contract
services in the form of the appropriate detailed processes and procedures to be adopted for the Contract at all
locations and shall also define the relationship for these disciplines between the CA and the Contractor during the
execution of the EPCC Contract.
The following requirements shall be reflected at all times within the Contract Execution Plan and apply to all project
control deliverables. The Contract Execution Plan shall be effective throughout all stages of the EPCC and El Merk
project
Tenderer is advised that the CA’s requirements captured here shall be re-created in Contract Annex XVI to ensure
Contractors conformity with CA’s requirement throughout the life of the Contract. Tenderer is also advised that the
word Contractor used in this document applies to Tenderer at this bidding stage.
2. PLANNING, SCHEDULING AND PROGRESS MEASUREMENT
2.1 Introduction
Contractor shall apply planning, scheduling and progress measurement methods and appropriate documentation in
line with the requirements of the Contract.
Contractor shall be responsible for the planning, scheduling and progress measurement of its own work. All such
plans shall interface with CA’s plans and schedules.
Contractor is responsible for the direction and supervision of its own and its sub-Contractors workforce and resources
but shall be accountable to CA for the deployment of it’s workforce in accordance with the plan.
Contractor shall compile tiered levels of planning for the scheduling of its work such that all operations at the lowest
level shall be directly related to activities at the highest level.
Contractor shall demonstrate at all times that the numbers of activities and coding structure at the various planning
levels are sufficient such that the activities in the plans are relevant and clearly model and control the Contract scope
of work. Where, in the opinion of CA, the numbers of activities are not sufficient or relevant then Contractor shall
amend it’s planning and scheduling as instructed by CA accordingly.
Contractor shall present such plans and schedules to the CA along with the progress measurement and forecasting
statistics of its work bi-monthly. Such reports shall be provided in hard copy and electronic formats as specified by
CA.
CA shall define the Contract time frame by setting start dates, milestone dates and finish dates as part of the Contract
Page 4 of 25
New Water Injection Facilities at El Merk Offsites ELM-02-JGC-PM-SPC-0008 Rev: R2
documents. Contractor shall plan and execute its work within these dates for all Contractor obligations.
Contractor shall, if deemed necessary by CA, develop intermediate milestones and dates for incorporation into the
plan.
CA reserves the right to change or revise milestones and intermediate dates, in which case Contractor shall amend
its planning and scheduling accordingly.
CA shall use its right to review and approve such plans, at whatever level, on an ongoing basis. Such reviews or
approval shall not relieve the Contractor of its liabilities and obligations under the Contract.
Attachment 1 indicates how the Contractor's Programme contributes to the CA Field Development Programme
structure.
Contractor's Programmes shall interface at the appropriate level with the CA Field Development Programme Master
Schedule.
Contractor shall ensure each worksite has a dedicated resident Planning team sufficiently resourced to implement the
applicable planning procedures.
Progress measurement shall be deliverables oriented, and based upon physical progress in auditable steps and truly
represent the progress of the work.
Contractor shall measure its own and its subcontractor's progress. Such progress data shall be collected at times
specified by CA.
The breakdown of the work progress measurement system, data collection, application and validation, method of
analysis, utilisation and reporting shall be approved by CA prior to use.
Contractor shall present the progress measurement data in a formalised manner at a level acceptable to CA.
Contractor shall demonstrate it has a professional, sound and auditable estimating system for deriving durations and
manhours/manpower.
Contractor shall develop and maintain such planning progress measurement and estimating systems acceptable to
CA where none currently exists.
Contractor shall demonstrate its ability to accurately report and record the actual use of resources. This rule applies
particularly to the reporting of manhours and manpower used at all locations.
Contractor shall provide CA with statistical data relating to its performance of the work as specified by CA.
Contractor shall maintain the CA approved baseline (Project Baseline Schedule) and report progress against that
baseline at all times. The first Project Baseline Schedule shall be referenced as Issue A first issue. If deemed
appropriate by CA, CA will inform Contractor that a re-baseline (Revised Project Baseline Schedule) is required, at
which point Contractor shall amend its planning, scheduling and progress measurement materials to suit and record
the changes that implemented the re-baseline. Once the re-baseline schedule is approved by CA, the new approved
Project Baseline Schedule shall be issue referenced by the next letter in the sequence (e.g. rev B) and all planning,
scheduling and progress measurement from that point shall refer to the revised baseline.
The CA approved progress statistics associated with any CA baseline shall be maintained for historical and archive
purposes.

New Water Injection Facilities at El Merk Offsites ELM-02-JGC-PM-SPC-0008 Rev: R2
In the event CA wishes to carry out variations to the work, Contractor shall maintain a planning and progress change
control system to suit all of its own and its subcontractor’s work. Such a system shall be compatible with CA’s own
change control system.
The breakdown of the change control and measurement system, data collection, application, validation, method of
analysis, utilisation and reporting shall be approved by CA prior to use. CA shall approve any rebase-lining of the
schedule and it’s method of execution and publication.
Contractor shall use its own Work Breakdown Structure during the performance of the Work but Contractor shall
ensure that all planning and cost data for the Contract shall be structured such that it shall relate directly to the CA’s
Work Breakdown Structure.
CA will review Contractor’s methods for planning scheduling and progress measurement and use these procedures
as far as possible. Contractor shall change its procedures where CA is not satisfied with the Contractor’s methods.
Contractor shall provide Contract Master Schedule Packages consisting of tiered levels of planning (see Attachments
1 and 2) such that operations at the lowest level (work items and resources) shall relate directly to the activities at the
highest level (Contract Master Barchart). Such activities shall be separately detailed in accordance with the scope of
work and include:
- Project Management and Coordination of all phases of the work.
- Detail Design including all hard copy deliverables and electronic design media plus the modeling process
associated with Computer Aided Design.
- Procurement (entire supply chain including FAT testing from the generation of a requisition through to the issue
of individual equipment and materials at site).
- Subcontracting from the generation of an enquiry through to the completion of the Work associated with the
subcontract. Note All subcontracted work associated with the EPCC shall adopt and apply the same methods
and principles for evaluating the progress as those methods agreed with the main EPCC Contractor and as
Approved by the CA.
- Construction from the mobilization of all construction related matters at site through to the completion of the
works and clean up and abandonment of the construction and commissioning Works and Worksite.
- Commissioning and Start Up of the facilities from the input of commissioning requirements into the Detail
Design process to the care and custody transfer to Operations.
- All training matters associated with the contract from the recognition of the scope of work thru completion.
2.2.1 Contract Master Barchart
Page 6 of 25
New Water Injection Facilities at El Merk Offsites ELM-02-JGC-PM-SPC-0008 Rev: R2
The Contract Master Barchart shall be the level 1 planning schedule and shall be structured such that activities on the
Contract Master Barchart can be directly reconciled with activities and coding on the Contractor’s level 2 Contract
Master Schedule.
2.2.2 Contract Master Schedule
The Contract Master Schedule shall be a logic network in precedence format. It shall contain sufficient activities to
schedule and control the Contractor's work and be capable of generating linked barcharts as required to publish all of
the scheduled work or subsets as required.
Each activity shall contain:
- A product orientated description
- A clear relationship with the Contract deliverables.
- A duration
- Unique identifiers separate from other networks.
- Level 3 identifiers as necessary for associated extra detail, resources, manpower, work item activity,
deliverable data etc.
- Level 4 identifiers as necessary to capture detailed information such as discipline and trade manpower,
resources, progress measurement statistics and look ahead schedules (e.g. 4 week, 8 week etc).
- The codes relating to the CA’s Work Breakdown Structure and subsequently:
- Progress achieved per activity.
- Remaining durations per activity.
- Resource and manpower requirements by time analysis.
- Timing of the execution of the Work in line with CA’s Work Breakdown Structure.
The plans shall be developed in such a way as to facilitate the monitoring of Contract progress and status.
The plans shall be structured so that status can be assessed by both work item and discipline for each essential
element of the contract and relate to the CA’s Work Breakdown Structure (WBS).
The networks shall show all logic and interfaces with it’s subcontractor’s and other project work as advised by the CA.
Should at any time the scope of work reflected in the Contract Master Schedule be at variance with the known scope
of work or the actual achievement be at variance such that the Contract Master Schedule does not truly reflect how
the remaining work shall be accomplished then the Contractor shall amend its planning and scheduling accordingly.
Should the Contract Master Schedule revision in CA’s opinion lead to a major variance in milestone achievements
either by date or content, then CA shall direct that the Contract Master Schedule, Progress 'S' curve and any other
document in the Contract be revised accordingly.
The Contract Master Schedule is the second level planning schedule and shall be structured such that activities on
the Contract Master Schedule relate directly to the Level 1 Contract Master Barchart and can be directly reconciled
where necessary to activities on the Contractor’s Level 3 Detailed Schedules or Level 4 data base.
2.2.3 Detailed Schedules (Level 3)
These schedules are the Contractor’s tools used to expand areas of work where the level of detail in the Contract
Master Schedule is insufficient to control the work. It may appear in network or Barchart form. The CA shall have
access to these schedules as required. Such schedules can be used as short term plans and schedules such as 4 or
8 week lookaheads.
During the commissioning and start up phase these plans shall be very detailed to assist in the essential control of
activities associated with mechanical completion, handover, shutdown, compliance with permit to work, partial utility
and hydrocarbon system operation, introduction of fluids and operation of the plant (as it pertains to the scope of
Page 7 of 25
New Water Injection Facilities at El Merk Offsites ELM-02-JGC-PM-SPC-0008 Rev: R2
work). All such plans shall interface with CA’s tactical plans and schedules.
2.2.4 Data Base (Level 4)
All scheduled activities within a Contract Master Schedule shall where necessary relate to a data base.
The data base shall define the work elements and resources required to control and execute the activities and shall
be capable of publishing such data in Barchart, list or appropriate format for management control.
The data base shall, in most instances, be computerised and shall be structured in a way that allows full visibility of
the detailed project needs and status.
The data base detail content varies according to the work being carried out but work elements refer to the method of
executing the task and resources refer to hardware, deliverables and manpower required to carry out the work.
The data base shall carry the work progress measurement system.
2.3 Progress Measurement
CA requires a comprehensive knowledge of the progress status of this Contract at all times.
CA requires progress measurement of tangible Contract items to be controlled by a formal method of identifying
progress against Contract deliverables for all phases of the work. Such methods shall be recorded approved by the
CA prior to use and administration of the progress measurement systems shall be captured in policies, processes and
procedures.
All such methods shall be in accordance with the CA’s requirements stated in ITT Part B Section 6 and Appendix 6 of
the Technical Volumes. Tenderer is also advised that the methods of evaluating the progress of the Services shall be
the subject of Contract Annex X.
Methods of measuring the detail design, procurement, subcontracting activity and the field and workshop processes
and practices used for construction commissioning and start up shall be a part of the data collection and such data,
weighting values (as necessary) and resource utilisation shall all be elements of progress control and form a sound
and auditable approach. Such methods for deriving real progress measurement shall be the only acceptable
application.
Contractor shall provide its methods for measuring and monitoring progress and controlling the work prior to its use.
Should the Contractor's method of progress measurement be unsatisfactory to CA then it shall be revised to the
satisfaction of CA.
Methods of measuring performance against the progress achievement for a given period e.g. productivity shall be a
part of the progress statistical analysis which is treated separately throughout the contract.
2.4 Reporting Progress

Document Scanning
In order to store all project data electronically in CA’s EDMS (Documentum), where a document is available only in
hard copy format, a scanned image is required, (primarily Manufacturing and Construction Records). The objective is
to reduce the storage costs of such records which have practically a nil impact over the Project’s life, while providing
immediate access to the records which may be used to support maintenance, insurance and warranty claims.
Such documents will be registered within the EDMS system. It is therefore proposed that these types of documents
are scanned, as may be required, as evidence of compliance with the Contract and that the original documentation is
not retained by the CA but by the Supplier.
The Scanning of such records shall recognise that certain certificates and documents will be required in hard copy
format for re-certification purposes; the Contractor’s Quality Group, prior to commencement of the initial scanning
activities, shall extract the originals of such documents.
All scanning shall be performed in a standard format to ensure consistent format standards and ease of retrieval.
The following guidelines should be followed where an electronic version of a hard copy document is required.
Generally, monochrome hard copy documents shall be scanned at 200 DPI (dots per inch) resolution and saved as a
compressed TIFF (Tagged Image File format) CCITT Group 4.
Where a document consists of more than one page (e.g. A4 text documents) it shall be saved as a Multipage TIFF
CCITT Group 4.
Colour documents (photos, diagrams etc.) shall be scanned at 75 DPI and saved as JPEG format.
These settings may be enhanced where poor quality originals are encountered.
(Note - these resolutions are guidelines and may need to be adjusted according to the quality of the document being
scanned)
CA will use Contractor’s Document Control Procedures as far as possible.
A Project Document Control Procedure shall be jointly compiled by Contractor and CA to ensure a common approach
is taken to manage project deliverables. The project procedure will be approved by CA prior to use. For Guidance
only, CA’s procedure is included in in this ITT (ELM-02-JGC-PM-SPC-0013)
Documents will be subject to continuous archiving as the work progresses.
