operationally tested (statically and dynamically), adjusted and balanced, and functionally
tested per the contract documents, prior to initiating operation and maintenance training
and final acceptance testing.
Ensure operation and maintenance manuals, system manuals, as-constructed drawings,
and other required documentation are developed, updated, and submitted in accordance
with the design intent and the contract documents.
Ensure Client operation and maintenance personnel are adequately train prior to
substantial completion of the work to provide routine operation and maintenance.
Ensure that the plan is developing document to attain score “1” and to achieve an overall
score of minimum “4” stars certification under GSAS (which shall be from 3rd party and
shall be as per latest revision 2010 and updated).

Equipment Installations
Activities Responsible Outcomes
- Material Submittal
FAT - Factory QA/QC - FAT Acceptance - FAT Procedures
Stage 1 - FAT - Contractual Requirements
Acceptance Test Procurement – T&C Certificate
The fundamental testing strategy is that during different phases of the work, such as
manufacturing, construction and commissioning, system requirements as detailed in the
technical specifications and in accordance to the validation plan, are verified by inspection,
test(s) or submission(s), which provide test analysis or product data to prove that a
specification requirement(s) have been met.
Use of Spare Parts during Testing and Commissioning
5.2 Safety during T&C (Lock Out Tag Out & Permit to Work)
This procedure is intended to provide authorize employees with a level of protection equal to
that, which would be afforded to them by the use of personal lock. The preferred method for
providing this type of protection involves the use of locks and key control as described
further in this procedure. When an energy-isolating device is not capable of being locked out,
the energy control program shall have utilized tag out (s). A personal sign-in/sign-out log or
permit is acceptable and considered a “personal tag out device” as long as (1) it identifies
each authorized employee being protected and (2) the person in charge can reliably account
for each individual authorized employee who is being protected.
This procedure Explains the procedures for Lockout I Tag out specified in the project H&S
plan: M009-SPH-HMS-PLN-00009 and also refers to doc. M009-SPH-QMS-PLN-00029
"Lock-out I Tag-out Procedure".
MEP T&C testing activities are to be divided into the following main phases:
For the phases mentioned above, T&C activities and certification of the work will be
considered in 6 main stages.
The milestone for starting the T&C activities shall be the design stage. Completion of sub-
system shop drawings will form a basis to T&C activities for preparing verification
documentation and in line to the validation criteria.
Manufacturing Stage mainly consists of Factory Acceptance Test (FAT). This Stage is
defined as the testing of equipment and equipment components during production in a
factory or testing laboratories. The aims of these tests are to confirm that the supplied
loadout complies with declared specifications and capacities on equipment data sheets. In
this stage verification of design and overall project, requirements are also considered.
FAT Tested equipment shall be stated as a list and a schedule for tests and dates will be
established and provided. In this list, it should also be remarked which equipment will be
fully tested or randomly tested for a portion of the total system. The engineer will be notified
with Factory Acceptance Tests. These will all be identified in the Testing and
Commissioning Schedule.
Before the FAT test in the factory a Testing Program including details of inspection and
testing shall be informed to the Engineer. The program shall include:
Agenda
FAT attendees contact details
FAT Procedure
At the conclusion of the FAT test, a Factory Acceptance Test Certificate (FATC) will be
issued by the supplier indicating how the item have been rigorously tested. FAT will be
issued for review and approval to Engineer.
The aim of installation testing stage is to demonstrate the equipment, or the sub-systems
have been installed correctly.
After successful installation tests; Installation Release Note (IRN) is to be issued for the
relevant CmLot. IRN is to be prepared by the QA/QC department and handed over to the
T&C Department. T&C department will only support to the QA/QC Team for this stage. IT
Tests will be considered as non-energized tests conducted in construction phase.
Once an (Installation Release Note) IRN has been issued for the identified/selected CmLot
then a third step of testing takes place, this time in an energized state, to prove the
functionality of CmLot. If permanent power supply is not available during any step of testing
and commissioning activities, it is SPH responsibility to provide details of power
requirement to Design and Built (D+B) contractor adequate parameters to allow T&C
activities to be undertaken.
The Partial Stand-Alone Test (PSAT) shall demonstrate that the MEP System or
installations works/were installed correctly as individual parts not as a whole system.
Equipment and installations will be tested part by part. Partial Stand-Alone Test will be
excluded from integration of other internal MEP sub-systems.
Test Readiness Review is the permit to start stage 4 activities which are Stand Alone Tests.
The TRR assesses test objectives, test methods and procedures, scope of tests, and safety
and confirms that required test resources have been properly identified and coordinated to
support planned tests. The TRR verifies the traceability of planned tests to program
requirements and user needs.
This testing stage aims to prove that all MEP sub-systems can work independently in
autonomous mode with its all system components.
During testing of equipment’s and components, permanent power shall be provided for all
the testing activities in order to prevent any harm in the system.
System integration tests demonstrate that the system works together as per design and
there are no interfaces or functional issues between the MEP, Civil, Track, Transit and
Operations.
During this phase, Integration Testing shall be conducted using permanent power supply,
only where applicable temporary power is to be used.
During this phase of the testing, a comprehensive set of integration testing shall be
conducted for station systems.
All Testing, Adjusting and Balancing actions, cause & effect checks, black-out test and
activities etc. shall be performed at this stage.
All specific integration testing will be the responsibility of Main Contractor. However, for
BACS and Railway System testing, MSI will take the lead on integration supported by
Redco.
At the end of each successful System Integration test, an Acceptance Certificate (AC) will
be issued.
Within this stage, construction phases are to be considered as finished, and studies for
proving that the system is suitable for operating with all independent pre-commissioned
systems. The stage includes performance testing to demonstrate that the integrated
equipment and systems meet contract performance requirements.
