SAPMT has reviewed the subject submittal dated January 04, 2015 and has no objection with the following comment:

•	The justification provided by ESE is not acceptable. According to para 3.1.1 of SCH-B, SAUDI ARAMCO comments on project documents or in log books or other documents shall not relieve CONTRACTOR of the overall responsibility of the work or for non-compliant items that may later be identified by SAUDI ARAMCO. Hence IC shall ensure that complete functionality of SACS according to project requirements is provided and any discrepancies found during commissioning shall be rectified by IC.
IC shall ensure that no scope change or cost/schedule implication arises from this letter.

Should you have any questions, please contact Sohail Moughal, Project Engineer at 012 422-4570.
