activities are determined and carried out during the Procurement phase. The overall objective is to
assure that the materials and equipment purchased, meet the required standard during manufacturing
and fabrication until delivery to site.

In particular, this Procurement Plan addresses the ARAMCO requirements as per Contractual schedule-
Q and ensure that the

1. ARAMCOs specifications e.g., SAES, SAMSS, SAER-1972 etc are incorporated in the
procedures and specifications prepared for the Purchase Orders.
2. Procedures and instructions are issued for the performance of all procurement activities.
3. Quality Document records serve as evidence that the manufacturer of the commodity items
meets the specified prescriptions.
4. QC activities on materials and equipment during procurement phase are carried out by qualified
inspector, as part of the quality system.

This Procurement Plan also includes the following:

Description of the procurement processes and the way procurement information will flow from the
quotation development through delivery to work-site;
A description of engineering/procurement/QA/QC/purchasing interface, corrective actions and
procedures;
A description of all periodic reports to be produced and their submittal dates, including the Monthly

5. Host pre-bid vendor conference if required to clarify the technical issues and queries for
engineering and complex equipments.
6. J oin meeting with vendor, Project and Discipline Engineers, to match the technical conformity of the
offered material/equipment. If the vendors technical offer conforms to the specific requirements,
Engineering/SOFCON will approve the Vendors technical proposal.
7. Transmit to vendors any additional information and/or clarification that are not cleared nor complied
in the MR/RFQ requirements.
8. Receive the commercial bids and evaluate the suitable bid considering the project schedule
requirements and the price, and place LOI or PO to the successful bidder.

10. If requested by SAPMT, the technical bids and the technical evaluations done therein will be issued
for the review, approval and records of SAPMT.
11. The NMR 601 documents will be expedited from the vendor, and evaluated by Sofcon and GCC for
the correctness of the material specifications, and if found acceptable, shall be stamped and
returned to vendor for submitting the final certified drawings as NMR 602, and to proceed with
manufacture.
12. For materials of inspection level 1 and above, Inspection assignment package will be compiled and
issued to SAPMT for review and onward transmittal to SAIR for the review and approval.
13. Conduct Pre inspection meeting for inspection level-2 and higher items, and to conduct in-process
inspections of such items, and to conduct the final inspection for the items of inspection level -1 and
above.
14. Expedite the fabrication and delivery of the items, and to transport the items to site warehouse or to
site, for storage, consumption or installation of the project material.

8.1 Material Substitutions

For any proposed material substitutions on cases the required specifications are not available in the
market, GCC will still follow the same process (as described in this Procurement Plan) for the
procurement of the equivalent and Clients approved substitute. Necessary approvals as required from
concerned divisions of Saudi Aramco such as CSD and proponents will be processed and obtained by
GCC in sourcing such substitutes.
In case the Vendor/Manufacturer for the substituted material is not listed in Saudi Aramco Regulated
Vendor List (RVL) and Saudi Aramco SAP Listed, GCC shall pre-qualify this vendor & its source
supplier and follow the requirements set forth in Schedule Q attachment III par. 1.2. On special cases
one (1) vendor source approval can be pursued by GCC by adhering to the provision of SAEP 133 for
one-time-use plant approval. However, such pre-qualifying the suppliers for the substitution of materials
will be minimized to the maximum extent possible, and will be resorted only in extreme emergency
situations where the project specified materials are not available in the market.

8.2 Detailed process overview:
Materials Requirement Identification
GCCs Engineering Department/SOFCON shall identify, take off and prepare a list of all the materials
and equipment required as per the contract scope of work.

This list shall contain the following information as minimum:
Item Description
Location of use and the plant number, if available.
Quantity
SAUDI ARAMCOs 9COM number.
SAUDI ARAMCOs Engineering Specifications/Standards (applicable to Items)
Compliance to specific International Codes / Standards
Recommendation for capital spare parts (if applicable)
Equipment Tag, if applicable
Inspection Level as assigned by SAVID
GCC shall obtain approval or confirmation on the Level of Inspection for all commodities (Bulk Materials
& Equipment) with the corresponding vendors/manufacturers from SAVID. The levels of inspection and
CCC/9COM shall be referenced in each RFQ and Purchase Requisition Submittal.

Priority Listing and Long Lead Items
The master procurement list shall be reviewed by the Planning and Scheduling Unit to establish the
priority listing as per the schedules. The Procurement Department identifies the long lead items from
the master list. This list shall be the main basis for the preparation of procurement planning in relation
to preparation of Request for Quotation (RFQ), Purchase Requisition (PR) and Inspection Assignment
Package (IAP). IAP shall be prepared only for inspectable equipment & materials as enumerated in
Contract Schedule Q and other materials/equipment that SAVID may later assign as inspectable
items.

The long-lead items will be processed first, since the delivery of such equipments/items is expected to
take more than 24-28 weeks, and the items mostly lie on the critical path, and such items require
monitoring and control to avoid any slippage in the schedule delivery. Procurement division, GCC shall
float advance RFQs for such items, without waiting for formal approved PR submittal reviewed and
approved by SAPMT and VID, to cut down on the processing time for the PO issue. However, formal
PO will be issued only after the approved PRS is made available to the procurement by the project
team, along with the internal ERP generated Purchase requisitions.

The critical items are those which are processed next, however the exact specification and quantities
may be not firmed up till the date of IFC issue, such items will be processed only to the stage of draft
PO issue, the firm PO will be issued after the specification and quantities are firmed up.
The bulk materials will normally be processed after the issue of IFC, such materials are mostly
available ex-stock, off-the shelves or with considerably less delivery times up to 6-8 weeks. The
materials are subject to quantity variance due to design changes even after issue of IFC. Such items
may be modified in the PR submittals, without review by SAVID. The IAP may be extended in such
cases.

Vendor Sources, Qualification and Quotation Request
GCCs Procurement Department shall select its Vendor sources from the list of SAUDI ARAMCO
Regulated Vendors List (RVL) and to be verified by SAPMT Materials Specialist on Saudi Aramco SAP
System. It shall be the responsibility of Procurement Department to ensure the technical and quality
requirements, and sound financial capabilities of all Vendors prior to placement of any Purchase Order.
SAPMT material specialist shall issue the RVL listing concerning the 9COM of the items, along with the
contact details (e-mail and telephone numbers of contact persons) of the plant ID approved for the
