(The Piping Execution Plan (PEP) shall be used on all projects involving Piping.
For customization of this PEP to suit Project needs, see para 2.0)

I. DEFINITIONS OF PHASES
Piping & Layout activities can be split into three phases:
• (After Phase 0 : Feasibility & Basic design, normally before contract
signature)
• Phase I Basic Design Phase: Design specification, standards and plot plan) for
Client's approval, Piping Preliminary Studies development. All equipment
based on preliminary information is located and major process piping routing
incorporated in drawings/3D design models.
• Phase II Detailed Design Phase: Design of piping models and deliverables
based on P&IDs issued IFD by modeling all large bore process lines and
utility lines and taking into account IFD engineering drawings/models of other
disciplines and preliminary selected Vendor's drawings/information.
• Phase III Issued for Construction IFC: Completion of design models and
issuance of IFC deliverables.

I. DEFINITIONS OF PHASES
Each engineering phase has the following steps:
1. Design and modeling (Phases I through III)
The engineering disciplines work together to complete all work defined for a
specific step as per the required milestones date.
2. Design Review (Phases I through III)
The design developed in each phases is reviewed to ensure that all required
work is complete (and/or pending points clearly identified), that it meets all
contractual requirements and that the Layout is in accordance with good
engineering practices.
3. Interference Check (Phases II and III)
Upon completion of the design review incorporating comments, a complete
interference check shall be performed on the integrated 3D design models.
The interferences shall be validated by resolving all 'hard' clashes
simultaneously approving some of the 'soft' clashes as outlined in the model
review procedure..
