CLIENT PROCEDURE FOR ACCREDITATION

1.0 Purpose

This document is to define Accreditation Section procedures and processes. The aim
of Accreditation is to ensure quality and performance of both design and construction
in all projects under Trakhees CED jurisdiction.

Trakhees CED regulations are in force for all Construction Developments which
undergo the process of Permits issued by CED. Accreditation programs are designed
to move these processes from Quality Control to Quality Assurance and for
accredited personnel to be well-versed in the contents of the regulations so as to help
them comply with the Authority's requirements. This will ensure a smooth interaction
that will lead to better communication, speedy construction avoiding any
consequences arising from violating the Authority's rules and regulations.

2.0 Scope

This procedure will apply to All Consultants, Contractors and Master Developers
Representatives assigned to the projects under Trakhees jurisdiction. All interactions with
Trakhees will require engineers and architects from all consultants, contractors and Master
Developers to be accredited as per the issued circulars for Trakhees Accreditation
Requirements available in Trakhees website.
