Who is responsible for driving?

Thread Content

If the preliminary design and the construction drawings are prepared by two different companies, who should be responsible for driving instructions? If the product guidelines are not met, who is then responsible?

Whoever causes the problem is responsible for it. It should mainly be the unit responsible for providing the basic design, that is, the preliminary design, to take care of it. If the construction drawings are not prepared in accordance with the requirements specified in the preliminary design, then the party responsible for preparing those drawings shall bear the liability

It is whoever you specify as being responsible at the time of signing the contract who will be responsible. Whoever has an issue with their range is responsible.

Reply to 1# xxxccc123456: During the project research phase, comparisons were made regarding the designs and services provided by the design institutes; during bidding, both the design institutes and the client provided detailed explanations and requirements for the relevant documents. Generally, for smaller projects, the design institute prepares the drawings, while the equipment supplier or technology provider is responsible for commissioning the system.

It is recommended to follow these steps: 1: The project owner should organize the design team (including those responsible for the preliminary design and the construction drawings), the construction contractor, and invite representative(s) of the owner to hold a coordination meeting prior to commencement of work; 2: Identify at the meeting the entity responsible for providing driving instructions; generally, it should be the party responsible for the construction drawings, to avoid disputes and shirking of responsibilities later on ; 3: Establish acceptance criteria with the owner’s representatives and the inspection units during the meeting. Generally, these three steps are sufficient to resolve the issue.

Of course, it’s the owner’s responsibility to turn it on! When a problem arises and someone is blamed, whose fault is it?

There should be a preliminary designer in charge. The construction party should be responsible only for installation and commissioning.

It is definitely the owner, that is, the constructor, who is responsible for getting the plant up and running; it cannot be treated as a turnkey project. Working in the chemical industry isn’t that simple – the owner must review both the design drawings and the construction plans. After construction is completed, before the plant starts operating, a \"three-inspections and four-verifications\" process must be carried out, as well as purging and water testing procedures, all of which can help identify issues. Once such issues are found, the designer must make process changes, and the contractor must carry out the necessary corrections. Given the limited capabilities, it is possible to seek the help of production units with extensive experience to provide guidance on operation; design and construction teams are not capable of carrying out this task.

The owner is certainly responsible for starting the work, but for any problems that arise during the construction process, it is the party that provided the technology that is liable.

I think that if the process documents are complete, such as after preliminary design and construction drawing reviews, then it should be the responsibility of the owner
