2. QualityControlOrganization
The QC department will operate as a separate and independent section within the
Project, report directly to the Project Manager its duty being to ensure
conformance to applicable standards, specification and drawing with respect to
materials,workmanship,construction,finish&functionalperformance,providing a
state that assures the end product complies with specification.
3. QualityControlPersonnelAuthority
QC Personnel may at any time stop any work-in-progress not fully complying with
the contract requirements. In stopping any sub- contract work, a notice stating
the reasons for rejecting will be issued. Work will not proceed until these
unsatisfactory conditions have been rectified / corrected.
Full authority on behalf of TD to implement all aspect of the QC program including
authority to reject non-complying work and orderremoval is vested to the Quality
