1. Introduction

KORTECH has developed and implemented a quality management system (QMS), which uses
ISO 9001:2015 as a framework that allows our organization to document and improve our
practices to better satisfy the needs and expectations of our customers, stakeholders and
interested parties. This document describes the quality management system, delineates
authorities, inter relationships and responsibilities of personnel operating within the
management system, it is also providing references to procedures and activities that also
comprise our quality management system. The quality plan is used to familiarise customers
and other external organizations or individuals with the controls that have been implemented
and to assure them that the integrity of our quality management system is maintained and is
focused on customer satisfaction and continual improvement.
This Quality plan forms part of the overall KORTECH Quality Management system (QMS) and
is modelled upon ISO 9001 2015: Quality Management Systems. Its goals are to increase
confidence that specified requirements will be met, provide greater assurance are in control,
to engender motivation and to provide a structured approach to projects’ execution. The
entirety of the KORTECH QMS is based upon the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycle for
continuous improvement depicted below.

The Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) Cycle for Continuous Improvement

The Quality Plan (PQP) is the KORTECH principal document for Quality describing the
necessary Quality Assurance (Quality Planning) and Quality Control (Quality Verification)

arrangements to be implemented for the Projects to achieve the quality requirements


described in the Contract Specifications and Drawings for engineering, procurement,
construction, commissioning and hand-over.
This document is a project-specific reference document for Quality combining the necessary
elements of KORTECH ISO 9001-2015 Quality Management Systems (QMS). It is not the aim
of the PQP to reproduce the QMS or Procedures but as necessary to explain the application of
the QMS.
The PQP is to be implemented by all KORTECH Project employees and subcontractors and
suppliers. The PQP shall therefore be distributed as a controlled document to required
KORTECH personnel and subcontractors and suppliers by Document Control.

4. Context of the Organizational

4.1 Understanding the organization and its context.

KORTECH is committed to defining our position in the marketplace and understanding how relevant
factors arising from legal, political, economic, social, and technological issues influence our strategic
direction and our organizational context.
KORTECH identifies, analyses, monitors and reviews factors that may affect our ability to satisfy our
customer and stakeholders, as well as; factors that may adversely affect the stability of our process,
or our management system’s integrity. To ensure that our QMS is aligned with our strategy, whilst
taking account of relevant internal and external factors; we initially analyse pertinent information in
order to determine potential impact on our context and subsequent business strategy.

KORTECH then monitors and reviews this information to ensure that a continual understanding of
each group’s requirements is derived and maintained. To facilitate the understanding of our context,
we regularly consider issues that influence our context during management review meetings and are
conveyed via minutes and business planning documents.

Internal Issues External Issues


Market share Customers & suppliers

Employees Markets & competition

Performance Regulatory & statutory

Values & culture Technological

Innovation & knowledge Cultural & social

The output from this activity is evident as an input to the consideration of risks and opportunities, and
the actions that we take to address them.

4.2 Understanding the needs and expectations of interest parties:

KORTECH recognizes that we have a unique set of interested parties whose needs and expectations
change and develop over time, and furthermore; that only a limited set of their respective needs and
expectations are applicable to our operations or to our quality management system. Such needs and
expectations broadly include those shown in the table below.

Interested Parties Needs& Expectations


Customers Price, Quality ,reliability & value
Distributors & retailers Quality, price & logistics
Owners/shareholders Profitability & growth
Employees Shared values & security
Suppliers Beneficial relationships
Regulatory & statutory Compliance & reporting

To ensure that our products and processes continue to meet all relevant requirements, we identify
and assess the potential impact of any relevant needs and expectations that may be elicited from the
interested parties. Where appropriate, to ensure that our processes are aligned to deliver the
requirements of our interested parties; we convert relevant needs and expectations into requirements
which become inputs to our QMS and to our products and services.

4.3.1 Scope of Quality Management System

Based on the analysis of the issues and requirements identified, KORTECH has established the
scope of the quality management system in order the implement our objectives and our policies that
are relevant to our context, products and any interested parties.

4.3.2 Quality Management System and Its Processes

KORTECH has implemented a quality management system that exists as part of a larger strategy that
has established, documented, and implemented our processes, quality policies and objectives, whilst
satisfying the requirements of ISO 9001:2015. To achieve this, KORTECH has adopted the process
approach advocated by ISO 9001:2015. Top management has determined the processes required for
achieving the intended outputs. By defining four key process-groups and by managing their inputs,
activities, controls, outputs, and interfaces; we ensure that system effectiveness is established
maintained. These key process groups include:

 Leadership and planning processes


Client: Document number: KOR-QC-PR-01-06

The Reversion number: 1


Project: REDSEA GLOBAL COMPANY Quality Control
HQ Offices - KAFD - RIYADH, KSA
Department Release date: 26/12/2023
Quality Plan

 Customer and stakeholder processes


 Product/service development processes
 Evaluation and improvement processes.

These process groups are described using tools such as documented procedures, process maps,
flow diagrams, matrices, schedules, and charts, etc. It is recognized that defining, implementing, and
documenting our quality management system is only the first step towards fully implementing its
requirements. The effectiveness of each process and its subsequent output is measured and
evaluated through regular internal audits, quality inspections and data analysis. We use key
performance indicators (KPIs) that are linked to our objectives to control and monitor our processes,
as well as assessments to determine the risks and opportunities inherent to each process. We use
trends and indicators relating to nonconformities, objectives and corrective action, as well as,
monitoring and measurement results, audit results and customer satisfaction data, process
performance and the conformity of our products.

4.3.3 Outsourced Processes

Where KORTECH identifies the requirement to outsource any process, or part thereof, which affects
conformity with the stated requirements KORTECH identifies control criteria such as; the competence
of personnel, inspection, the provision of product conformity certificates, adherence to specifications
and specific job files, etc.

The controls identified do not absolve us of the responsibility to conform to client, statutory and
regulatory requirements but instead they enhance our capacity to effectively manage our supply
chain. The controls adopted are influenced by the potential impact of outsourcing on meeting
customer or stakeholder requirements and the degree to which control of the process is shared.
Outsourced processes are controlled via purchasing and contractual agreements.

KORTECH continually seeks to improve the effectiveness of its management systems via use of its
policy, objectives, audit results, data analysis, corrective and preventive actions, management
review and projects lessons learned.
It is invaluable for all Business Units at KORTECH to learn quickly from "faults" and "best practices"
gained during the project execution. Deriving of appropriate improvements and sharing of the
experience with others from outside the project team are the crucial success factors in this
respect.

The project lessons learned process pursues three objectives:

Enhance project work by a systematic and recurrent analysis of important experiences made by
all persons involved within the relevant project.
Identify and conduct measures in order to solve problems, to mitigate their impacts or to integrate
best solutions as a standard approach for future projects or for upcoming project phases.
Disseminate the results of project lessons learned for their consideration by all future project
teams.

10.2 Nonconformity and Corrective Action

When a nonconformity occurs, including any arising from complaints, KORTECH.


 Acts to control and correct it.
 Deals with the consequences.
