contractual obligation on part of Contractor & EPC contractor, which should be affected smoothly & regularly, throughout duration of project.

3 Should there be no change on released for construction drawings i.e. construction has been carried out all in accordance with approved documents provisions, there shall be no purpose of as built drawings.

4 But in practice, to produce physical structures, some changes are imminent due to rising of new requirement, changes, effects of disciplinary interfaces to bring work to proper use functions etc.

5 During whole currency of contract, it should be an endeavour of contractor that all changes are recorded on contract documents as Red Lines mark up & issued to EPC contractor for approval.

6 These red lines mark up shall form basis of producing all as built documents on project. 7 It is not drawings only that are to be recorded, but also, all changes whatsoever, for all

documents on record. 8 All these as built shall form part of handover dossiers. 9 Should as built records be maintained regularly, this part of dossiers shall be comfortably

produced10 Site design engineers shall keep an eye on this activity, record changes regularly, as red line

mark up & process documentation to fulfil contractual obligation to this extent possible. 11 It is expected of site engineers, design engineers as well as, land surveyors to coordinate on
