Should the PID drawings be handed over to the client or the end user after the project is completed?
Thread Content
I am a contractor specializing in environmental protection projects, and the project has now been completed. I would like to ask whether the PID drawings need to be handed over to the client Since it is a new set of processes, and there may be confidentiality reasons, I was wondering whether it is necessary to hand them over to the users? ? Thank you
If you don’t provide it to the customers, how can they keep track of the production process? As-built drawings are required by national standards.
You can simplify it a bit. If the PID is compromised with just a glance, it means the new process might be nothing more than a thin layer of protection.
For information that needs to be kept confidential, this should be discussed with Party A. Such as drug formulations, programming for automated control, as well as overall diagrams of electrical/gas systems, mechanical equipment, processes, infrastructure, and concealed works. There are also the certificates of conformity for various individual devices, as well as documents and certificates related to electrical instruments and their requirements. Everything has to be handed over; otherwise, they won’t settle the payment for you.
See how the contract is signed – usually a PID is provided; there’s nothing secret about it. If you understand the process, you can draw it out by yourself even if no PID is given; just go to the site and take a look
The key is what is stipulated in the contract; besides, there is no issue of technical confidentiality regarding PID.
AS-BUILT certainly includes the AS-BUILT PID. Environmental protection is extremely popular these days.
The P&ID is part of the as-built documents. I would like to ask, don’t you have pressure testing kits? Should the pressure testing package be edited on the P&ID and submitted to the inspectors?
It definitely has to be paid; for confidential information, just don’t include it in the document. The key is to see what the contract stipulates
