1. Introduction 1.1 Overview This plan should be read in conjunction with the Construction Phase Plan which provides the overall framework for the management of the project. The management of the construction of the new works will conform to the requirements of BS EN ISO 9001 Quality Management, BS EN ISO 14001 Environmental Management, BS OHSAS 18001 Management of Health and Safety and Kier Management Process Maps. This plan covers: Design Management and Control Quality Assurance. Quality Control This plan identifies the key interfaces, the allocation of responsibilities and the methods and controls to be applied. References to Standards, Codes of Practice, Client Company Procedures and Kier Company Processes are made where appropriate. These planned arrangements will enable Kier to clarify requirements, minimise risk and ensure that potential errors are identified and corrected. It is important for the success of the project that all staff working on it are aware of these arrangements. The site manager is responsible for advising and directing site personnel in order that those personnel understand and carry out their responsibilities diligently. Good communications are critical to the success of the project. The Kier Construction Quality and Environmental Manager is responsible for verifying the implementation of this plan via audit and surveillance activities. 1.2 Definitions Any acronym or abbreviation will be preceded by the word or words to which they apply in full. 2. Requirements Management The evolution of the project requirements will be documented in tender, meeting and review notes. 3. Value Engineering Where appropriate value management provides an opportunity for the project team to optimise value for money and performance within the design review processes. The provision of best value solutions is a key objective for Kier Construction. 4. Stakeholder Management Stakeholder Management is a thread which runs through the life cycle of all projects and will be essential if the smooth flow of information and timely approval of submissions is to be achieved. Stakeholder Management features in Requirements Management, Hazard Management, Value Engineering and the development of design and safety reports, to name but a few. The principle parties are set out in the Project Management Plan. QMP Issue 02 Page 4 of 11

Progress against project targets established within the project business plan will be reported at weekly team meetings and in reports to the Sector Manager. (Refer also to Construction Process Map Lv3 Item 4.2.17) 5.5 Review and Reporting The Project Manager will ensure that contract documents, including client requirements, relevant codes, standards, specifications and instructions issued are reviewed by KCL team members and sub-contractors. This will enable the project requirements to be adequately defined and documented, any changes recorded and documented, and the necessary resources/arrangements to be undertaken. The project team will hold weekly meetings, as a minimum, to review performance to date and to plan in detail the remaining activities. Minutes will be taken and actions required and completed recorded. Meetings and lines of communication will be established with all stakeholders to ensure aspirations are managed and requirements met. The Sector Manager will include details of this project in a monthly report and a 3- monthly forecast to the KCL board for contract review. Formal monthly review meetings take place on the Last Wednesday or Thursday of the month. 5.6 Document Control The KCL document control system will be set up, managed and maintained by the Document Controller with surveillance by the Project Manager and Q&E Manager to ensure that the system is operating correctly. MVV Umwelt has implemented their own collaborative online document control system ThinkProject which all parties must conform with. This is maintained by MVV Umwelt. There are two levels of access to ThinkProject:- 1.) Project Manager and/or document controller have full access and can upload documents onto ThinkProject. 2.) All other parties including suppliers will have view and download only access. QMP Issue 02 Page 6 of 11
