treatment facilities;
• Municipal solid waste management, transfer stations, sanitary landfills and leachate treatment.
BW Perunding provides a complete range of services - developing initial concepts and ideas from
investigations and studies into practical engineering solutions designed to suit local and particular
conditions. The nature of advisory consulting work varies in complexity and extent with the needs
of a particular project, but generally involves the integration of a variety of technical and scientific
disciplines managed as a team for the successful and economic realization of the project.

complaints received to see how it has differed from the Quality Objectives and find the root cause of the
NCR and Client complaints. Corrective and preventive actions shall be initiated and improvement
recommended for the approval of the Top Management.
4.3.1 The guiding principle of the Quality Objective of the Quality Section is
4.3.2 The Quality Objective for the Quality Section is achieved through the internal quality audit by using
QF030/03 – Audit Checklist (Quality System Section). Completed forms for this shall be dealt with in
accordance to QP190 – Statistical Technique and Continuous Improvement.
4.4.1 The guiding principle of the Quality Objective of the Administrative Section is
4.4.2 The Quality Objective for the Administrative Section is achieved through the internal quality audit by
using QF030/04 – Audit Checklist (Administrative Section). Completed forms for this shall be dealt with
in accordance to QP190 – Statistical Technique and Continuous Improvement.
4.4.3 The Admin Officer shall be responsible for setting the Quality Objectives for the Admin Section in
consultation with the Quality System Manager.
4.5.1 The guiding principle of the Quality Objective of the Drafting Section is
4.5.2 “Check Prints” are draft copies of the translation of design into drawings and it reflects the draftsperson
understanding of the design by the Project Engineer. In addition it also reflects the understanding of the
clients requirements by the Project Engineer.
4.5.3 In order to control the number of “CHECK PRINT” for each drawing, the Project Engineer shall
maintain a record of the “CHECK PRINT” in QF015/03 – Check Prints Record. Before the FINAL
PRINT, the Project Engineer shall initial on the column after the last check print number e.g. if the
number of check prints is No. 3 then the Project Engineer shall initial on the No. 4 column.
4.5.4 The Senior Draftsperson shall be responsible for controlling and compiling QF015/03 – Check Prints
Record and setting the Quality Objectives for this section in consultation with the QSM.
4.6.1 The Design Office Section refers to the Civil, Structural, Sewerage/Drainage and M&E Sections.
4.6.2 The guiding principle of the Quality Objective of the Design Office Section is
“Towards Scoring 100% During Internal Quality Audits, Zero Design Changes
During Construction and Zero Design Related Defects”
4.6.3 Drawing revisions are amendments to controlled drawings already issued to the Client or site for
construction. The number of revisions reflects the understanding of the Client’s requirements, the design
input required, the verification and review by the relevant personnel.
4.6.4 Heads of Section/Project Manager shall be responsible for the updating of QF015/02 – Drawing
Revisions Record at the time of review of the Quality Objectives. The recording of the number of design
revisions shall be through the controlled design changes register for each project.
4.6.5 Concessions may be allowed at the discretion of the QSM in cases where the number of revisions can be
waived where unforeseen circumstances are encountered in preparing the design drawings.
4.6.6 Heads of Section shall be responsible for setting the Quality Objective for their respective sections, in
consultation with the QSM.
4.7.1 The guiding principle of the Quality Objective of the Site Office is
“Towards Scoring 100% During Internal Quality Audits and Zero Defects
Detected During Certificate of Practical Completion”
4.7.2 Defects detected during Certificate of Practical Completion are undesirable works that has been
constructed at the site for each project and it can lead to lower level of customer satisfaction. It also
reflects on the control of the works by the Site Staff in ensuring that the Contractor understands the
drawings and specifications drawn up for the project.
4.7.3 The Resident Engineer is responsible for updating QF015/04 – Defects Record at the time of review of the
Quality Objectives. The recording of the defects shall be carried out on a monthly basis through post
inspection checklist (QFSSM/07), during routine inspections, upon practical completion or upon
completion of the Defects Liability Period. For multiple contracts in a project, each contract shall have its
own QF015/04.
4.7.4 (*7)In QF015/04 – Defects Record, the Resident Engineer is required to log in the defects detected on site
every month arising from various reasons, including Client Complaints. The number of defects per month
per se do not accurately reflect the diligence or effort of the Resident Engineer in the supervision of the
work. However, but read together with the physical progress achieved, the average defects per 5% of
physical progress will give an indication of this as it is inconceivable that there will be less than 20
defects detected throughout the lifespan of a particular project.
4.7.5 The Project Manager shall be responsible for setting the Quality Objective for each project upon
consultation with the Project Manager, in consultation with the QSM (*7).
4.8.1 The QSM shall be responsible for collating all the Quality Objectives.
4.8.2 The QSM shall analyze the Quality Objectives in accordance to QP190 – Statistical Technique and
Continuous Improvement to show the improving or adverse trends of the Quality Objectives.
4.8.3 If there is an improving trend new Quality Objectives shall be set to ensure the continuous improvement
of BWP as well as each section.
4.8.4 If there is a declining trend, the QSM shall analyze the root cause of the problem and discuss with the
Section Heads on how this can be overcome. The QSM shall compile a report on this for submission to
the Top Management for a review together with suggestions for improvement.

1.1 This sets out the procedure for Internal Quality Audits (IQA’s) on all BWP’s projects and Quality System.
It describes the methods for scheduling, planning, preparing, performing, reporting, recording and follow
up on the IQA’s which are used to verify compliance with the documented Quality System.
1.2 The objective of an Internal Quality Audit is to determine whether the processes carried out are in
accordance with BWP’s Project Quality Plan and Quality System Document in addition to meeting Client,
Statutory and Regulatory requirements.
1.3 The Internal Quality Audit also serves to obtain data on the performance of each section in BWP in
compliance with the quality procedures and to detect any deficiencies for continuous improvement.
3.1 The Quality System Manager (QSM) shall ensure that Internal Quality Audits are performed by suitably
trained and qualified personnel who as far as practicable have no direct or commercial responsibility for
the area, function or activity being audited.
3.2 The QSM shall nominate staff from the clerical/drafting/engineers group or other personnel as deemed
fit as internal auditors. Upon approval by the management, the internal auditors shall undergo a one
day training on internal audit and the quality system. The trained internal auditor shall be verified,
recorded and reviewed in accordance with BWP QP080.
3.3 The QSM shall plan up and maintain an Internal Audit Schedule (QF030/01). The schedule shall at least
show the section and related area to be audited at least once per year. The sequence of audits is subject to
the performance of past audit results. Where deemed necessary, periodic audit may be called for non-
performing areas/section or review of the process accordingly.
3.4 The QSM shall forward an IQA Notification Form (QF030/02) to the auditee(s). Where appropriate,
additional schedules may be provided to supplement the Audit Schedule.
3.5 In the event of “emergency” audits, there is no need to issue the revised audit schedule. However, a new
Audit Notification Form (QF030/02) will be issued accordingly.
3.6 The QSM shall ensure that the Audit Schedule reflects the importance of the activity/area audited and
takes into account past difficulties with the Quality System.
3.7 The QSM may decide upon additional unscheduled audits at short notice where deemed necessary by
events or as a result of a Management Review.
3.8 The auditor shall ensure that audits have 3 distinct phases:
3.9 The audit criteria shall either be through interviews, examination of quality documents, observation of
activities and condition of the areas concern or a combination of any or all of the above.
3.10 The auditor shall use Standard IQA Checklist Forms (QF030/03 to QF030/07) to verify compliance and
record objective evidence and marked accordingly for performance review. The auditor should note that
in using QF030/06 – Audit Checklist for Design Section, where a question is not applicable to that
particular section, no points should be given to that question and the question is not taken into account in
the computation of the score.
3.11 The auditor shall record the non-compliances using the completed Nonconformance Report (NCR) Form
(QF040/01).
3.12 At the end of the audit, the auditor shall review the findings and ensure every NCR shows dates for
corrective and preventive actions.
3.13 The auditor shall report his/her findings using the Internal Quality Audit Report (QF030/08) and ensure
the auditee receives a copy of the report.
3.14 The QSM shall copy the Audit Report to the relevant Head of Section/Project Manager and if appropriate,
to the Managing Director.
3.15 The Head of Section/Project Manager shall ensure that the necessary corrective and preventative actions
are taken.
3.16 The QSM shall review the results of audits and provide suitable assistance where appropriate. The QSM
shall summarize the audits in the form Internal Quality Audit Summary Report (QF030/09), where he
shall indicate the number of non-conformances against the procedures/ISO clauses and the
auditees/sections(if any).
3.17 A statistical database of the current and previous audit results shall be developed in accordance with BWP
QP190 to assess the performance, efficiency and its effectiveness as well as identify areas for continual
improvement.

4.1.4 Sub sub-folders may be created for e.g. folders for specifications, BOQ, Calculations, Contract
packages, etc in the project sub-folders.
4.1.5 DO NOT use My Documents as the main folder simply because every computer will have My Document
as a main folder.
4.1.6 This main folder will contain all data and files for projects which can be accessible by all. However if
you need to store information which is personal in nature or confidential such as tender evaluation
report create another folder and make it not accessible or have a password to access.
4.2.1 More often than not, we have different styles of naming the files but it is important that every file
should have a date at the end of the filename e.g. \Conc Report-8May08. This is to say that this file is
called “Conc Report” and it was created on 8th May 2008. There are times when, say a report was
created on 8May08 as a draft. Then later when the report was finalized, SAVE the file using the same
filename but rename it on the date when it was finalized, e.g.
4.2.2 The purpose of this is to allow retrieving some sections of the report just in case it is needed.
4.3.1 In order for each file to be traceable, Microsoft WORD documents should have a footer name using
the function \View\Header and Footer\Insert Auto Text\Filename and path. The font size used shall be
6 in italics, e.g.
C:\Eng12-SKE\ISO9001\ISO Manual\Procedures\QP160-Mar2003.doc
With this footer in the document the following information are available
• C:Eng12-SKE – will indicate that the file is in the Eng12 computer and being used by Soh Kok
Eng
• ISO9001\ISO Manual\Procedures\ – is the sub folder, sub-sub folder and sub-sub-sub folder in
the main folder of Eng12-SKE
• QP160-Mar2003.doc – is the filename for this file and it was first created on March 2003 and it is
a WORD document file.
4.3.2 For files in Microsoft EXCEL use the “=CELL(“filename”)” function at the top left corner of the
spreadsheet.
4.4.1 For large documents such as specifications and reports it is encouraged to save the document in one
file as far as possible. As such for word processing document the number of files should be minimized
and section break used to overcome the problem of page numbering. Each new section should start
with page 1 again. However for very large document you may need to break it up into several files.
4.4.2 For typing Bills of Quantities in Microsoft EXCEL, all the Bills should be in one file using one sheet
for each bill.
4.5 Backup
4.5.1 In the server of the company’s network system, folders have been created for each section of the company.
Under each section folder, sub-folders of the same name as your main folder has been created e.g.
\Engineer\Eng12-SKE. All staff shall backup the main folder in their computer in the server under the same
name at least once a week. All staff are advised to delete all their sub-folders before the next backup to
optimize the server memory space.
4.5.2 For ACAD drawings, the Senior Draftsperson shall gather all the drawings upon completion at the
Tender Stage and backup the files in two copies of CD-ROM as detailed in the Drawing Office
Manual.
4.5.3 Upon completion of a project, the Project Manager shall inform all the officers involved in the Project
to archive the whole project directory to CD-ROM and hand over the same to the Administrative
Officer/Senior Draughtsperson for storage and future reference. The CD-ROM shall be stored in the
office for quick retrieval of data if and when needed.
4.5.4 For QA Documentation, the QSM shall save all approved quality manuals, procedures, work
instructions and quality forms in the server under server\STANDARD\ISO9001\…. and the relevant
sub-folders. This is to ensure that every staff has access to the soft copy of the latest approved
procedures and quality forms.

1.1 This instruction defines the checks to be made for all detailed calculations produced in the
development of the Project Output.
3.0 INSTRUCTIONS
3.1 The checking of Project input and detailed calculations is governed by the requirements of the Works
Programme, Project Quality Plan and the Project Inputs as appropriate. Design checking should be
carried out by personnel nominated in the Project Quality Plan and shall be recorded on QF180/01 -
Design Checklist.
4.1.1 The designer shall initially carry out a check on the detailed calculation.
4.1.2 If the designer finds his/her works does not meet the Client Brief and project input requirements,
he/she shall rectify the situation and repeat the general checks.
4.1.3 Once the designer has completed the checking, he/she shall sign on the “Assistant” box in the original
design calculation sheet.
4.2.1 In checking detailed calculations and tender documents, the checker shall initially refer to the Project
Inputs to ensure that the project and work element input requirements have been adequately taken into
account in the development of the detailed calculations.
4.2.2 Checks shall be carried out by personnel nominated by the Project Manager. The checker must use
professional judgment to decide whether any additional points need to be considered. Listed below are
some techniques for the checker to follow:
Points to check are whether the design calculations are prepared in accordance with the latest
issue of the Project Inputs, the Client Brief, together with any related meeting records and
records of any anomalies raised and resolved.
Gross errors can be identified by using simple of ‘rule of thumb’ calculations using
approximate data. Alternatively, simple upper and lower bound calculations can show that the
result is of the right order.
• Check by Inspection
The results of the design calculations are compared with those from other projects of similar
nature. Graphical output from computer programs is however readily checked by inspection,
and should be examined first.
General points to check include use of the relevant Design Standards and Codes in accordance
with the Client Brief or Project Inputs.
General points to check are whether the designer’s intention and requirements are interpreted
in a consistent way that will be clear, complete and unambiguous.
Critical engineering elements which are crucial to the safe and proper functioning of the
works should be identified and checked in detail (e.g., substantial load transfer beams or
plates).
The checker shall check that issues on the safety, health and environmental requirements have
been considered during design. This may be demonstrated by provision of method statements
of procedures proposed to ensure high safety and health standards.
If the adequacy and accuracy of the calculations are still uncertain on completion of the general and
specific check stated above, the following courses of action can then be adopted:
• Re-working
Methods that are independent of those used in the original calculations shall be adopted as far
as possible.
• A line-by-line check
4.6 If the checker finds the checking satisfactory, he/she shall endorse on the “check by” box in the
original design calculation sheets. Following the checking by the designated person, the calculations
should be passed to the Project Manager or nominated Team Leader.
If the reviewer finds the checking satisfactory, he/she shall endorse on completed Form QF180/01 -
Design Checklist.
4.7 QF180/01 is not required for any change during construction period.

1.1 This procedure describes the methods for analyzing the data from Quality Objectives, Internal Quality
Audits, Client Feedback, Non-Conformances and Client Complaint relating to the product or services
provided by BWP to its clients to verify process capability.
1.2 The objective of this procedure is to give indication of the effectiveness and suitability of the procedures
or work plan and to recommend performance improvement if necessary.
3.1 The QSM shall be responsible for this procedure and present all the record forms to the top management
during the Management Review.
4.1.1 BWP Quality Objectives - All non-conformance reports including minor non-conformances during
external audits and client complaints received shall be listed in QF190/01 – BWP Quality Objectives.
4.1.2 Quality Objectives (Quality Section) – The percentage scoring of the internal quality audits through
QF030/03 – Audit Checklist (Quality System Section) shall be listed in QF190/02 – Quality Objectives of
Quality Section.
4.1.3 Quality Objectives (Drafting Section) – Data from the Drafting Section in the form of number of check
prints per drawing through completion of QF015/03 – Check Prints Record. Each contract/project shall
have one form and the average taken for the total number of drawings under review. The result of the
grand total average number of check prints shall then be listed in QF190/03 – Quality Objectives of
Drafting Section, together with the percentage scoring of the internal audits through QF030/05 – Audit
Checklist (Drafting Section)..
4.1.4 Quality Objectives (Design Office Section) – This refers to the Civil, Structural and M&E Sections in
BWP. The data shall be from percentage scoring from the internal audits of Design Office Section
(QF030/06), the number of design changes recorded in QF180/04 through completion of QF015/02
(Drawing Revisions Record), and lastly the number of design related defects (QF015/04). The results are
presented in QF190/04 – Quality Objectives (Design Office Section).
4.1.5 Quality Objectives (Site Office) – The data shall be from the results of internal audit scores (QF030/07),
and the defects detected during CPC inspections on completed works recorded in QF015/04 – Defects
