Preface
The focus of mine while writing the final report is on, the way I describe what I learn during my precious internship period, however briefly. The report focuses primarily on the content of the different meetings that were provided for me by the Mechanical Execution Manager Mr. Sohail Ahmed Khan, with different professionals that were mainly working on the issues that I was interested in knowing more. I must admit that one month is not enough to have a deeper study on different sections of INF but it was helpful for me to meet different project managers and have an overview of the way that they worked and how they faced different challenges and solved different problems. During my internship period at Siemens Pk, I also tried to get knowledge about their way of working, which I will share with you later. I want to thank, first, all the staff member of BU-INF for their support in my internship period and for the fact that they made me feel comfortable all the time I was there, so that I could easily concentrate on my study and observation which Im sure will be a great help for me in my future career. SIEMENS Pak is the countrys top rated engineering company. During my 6 weeks of internship in infrastructure solutions, I was sent to different sections of BU-INF under the supervision of Mr. Sohail Ahmed Khan.

INF portfolio / QMS


In Quality Management System, the period from 7-6-2011 to 10-6-2011 with Mr. Usman Bin Rashid was quite informative therefore I was able understand the complete QMS Procedures. QMS Procedures defines all departments' working criteria and documentation. The BU and corporate department are required to establish documentation procedures for their relevant illustrating in detail the following. Sequence and interaction of the processes. Methods for process operation and control. Availability of adequate resources and information. MONITORING, measuring where applicable and analysis requirement of process. Acceptance criteria for operation and control of process. Actions to be taken to achieve planned results and continual improvement of the process.

Proper documentation and its monitoring should be maintain, to improve the results, processes, and control over the paper work. HSE = Health safety environment. EHS = Environmental, occupational health & safety. IPI = In-process inspection. NCR= Non-conformity report. Non-conformity: Non-fulfillment of a specified requirement.

According to QMS Procedures INF has a REFERENCE no. SP-5. The documents which have reference number (Record or reference no.) are controlled documents, through which the documents easily be detected.

HSE (Health safety environment) monitors all the safety


measures taken for the execution works. FIR = First incident report (A brief report including root cause with in 24 hours of accident) PP = Personnel protective tools

Induction is like an orientation which is provided to the site workers,


to acknowledge them about the precaution for hazards.

Tool box talk is like a school assembly which contains daily lectures
on different topics related to safety and precautions before the work starts.

Work permits should be maintained properly for every project, such


as; Hot-work permit Cold-work permit Electrical-work permit Confined space-work That was the information and experience I earned during my time in QMS portfolio and HSE department.

Planning & Monitoring Department


In Planning & Monitoring Department, the period from 13-6-2011 to 17-6-2011 with Mr. Muhammad Anjum, was quite informative therefore I was able understand the working of a planning engineer. I was also being taught the "Primavera 3" software and monitoring of the plan. Following are the major steps used in process planning: Time Mobilization Costs WBS Execution Report ( monitoring) Control WBS = Work Breakdown Structure. Activities Order of Performance Estimated Time Overall Project time Major Components

Primavera (Soft ware for WBS & very easy to use) Histograms (Ms excel)
In piping process we have some major steps: Making & Cutting Weight Beveling Length Align/fitting Dia-inch Welding NDT= Non-Destructive Testing. RT = Radio Graphic Testing. DPT = Die Penetrating Testing. Micro Scheduling = Planning w.r.t Man-Hours.

Procurement Plan: Costing all Procurements which we have to done. Different profit of projects:
Variance = Earned MHRS - Plan MHRS Efficiency = Earned MHRS / Actual MHRS Data set = Programming facing data updated. Key Progress = Indicated Report Men Hour is a standard unit. Estimating the labor to be used or in use. Budgeted MHRS Planned MHRS Earned MHRS Actual MHRS

In any on going project, weekly, monthly or yearly reports are taken & monitoring the performance by the calculation of Variance, Actual MHRS & Earned MHRS. There are two types of reports: Graphical reports. Tabular reports.

Primavera-3 software is used for the whole planning purpose of the


project with the help of the Man-hours & all the information given by the client. There is a flow chart & plan formed for every project going on. Every report of on going project is taken & particular unit Man-hours are assigned to each activity. If any error occur or any difference occur in the Planned MHRS & Earned MHRS or any difference occur in Histograms and the S-Curve will not be smooth it means there is some thing wrong in the plan and their may be few errors in the calculation. Weekly reports taken are more appropriate & efficient because any error occur could be removed in a shortest possible time to avoid any kind of major loss. For planning & calculation Activity codes are given, all of these should be organized & may require formatting& then Re-organize. All the planning is done in step by step procedure according to the given B.O.Q. (Bill of Quantity). That was the information, experience and P-3 skills, I earned during my time in Planning and monitoring department.

Stores Department
In Stores department the period from 20-6-2011 to 22-6-2011 with Mr. Nasir Kamal, was quite informative therefore I was able to learn the procedure of storage of materials and stuff which are required in the processing of project, given by the clients. We visited different persons for different purposes. Mr. Adeel receives the material land controls the receiving which is done siemens to siemens or from the abroad and make its purchase requisition and processes further. Mr. Shahab does the same work & receives the delivery on the local basis and then makes PR on SAP software. Mr.Shahbaz controls both local & imported. He takes the both arriving & passes it through to the further processes. Assets are the main activity of the project, stores also controls all the assets. Every thing & stuff used for the project on SITE is called asset & stuff has a particular standard of efficiency, then it is categorized as an Asset. Mr. Salman controls the quality of materials, with the help of Screw guage, Vernier Calliper, and Length Measuring tapes etc. Physical Test consists of: Lengths Defects (Corrosion) Dimensions Visual Inspections Specification (Acc to the req. of Client)

MR = Material Requisition Green color for Material Blue Rust color for Tools color for Heavy machinery & Lifters

Yellow color for SITE making / Establishment First there is match of Delivery chalan, Purchase order & Purchase requisition then pass to the GR (Goods receipts) then it goes for the inspection to Mr. Salman, then the Quality control engineer checks it & says ok or not.

Material = Consumable at site while tools and asset are not. Tools = Below 10,000 Rs. Assets = Above 10,000 Rs. D.N = Dispatch Note P.R = Purchase Requisition

This is the summary & the main information I got from the Stores department.

Purchase Department
In the Purchase department, during the period from 23-06-2011 to 24-06-2011, with Mr. Urooj Abbasi was quite informative therefore, I was able to learn the procedures, how they controls the overall purchasing of all the stuff. Siemens has a list of registered quality vendors of about 320 vendors & they are categorized into 3 categories A, B and C. "A" category vendors are considered as a good and quality ones as "B" category is of average & "C" category vendors are most on a complaint side. And 99% of the vendors are selected from category "A". If the vendor is producing bad quality continuously & the quality control department rejects the parts so often the vendor will be remove from the registered list. We start the process, material comes from the supplier & then sent to inspection & then it is inspected physically which is information of purchasing from PR report. If meeting the inspection & testing criteria. Then results noted in GR (goods receipt). Lab test required and sending to lab testing & then handed over to the store department & results noted in GR. Accepted material will be delivered to SITE, after issuing a DN (dispatch note).

DN = Dispatch Note PO = Purchase Order GR = Goods Receipt CS = Comparative Statements RFQ = Request for Quotation

A summarize flow of work I have created below;


Step 1: MR is converted into PR by stores dep't., and sent to Purchase dep't, if the material is not available in stores.

Step 2: Purchase dep't sent the Request for Quotation to its registered vendors.

Step 3: After collection of quotations, purchase dep't create a Comparative statement of all the vendors.

Step 4: Through the CS the selection procedure starts, under the two parameters (A) Rates and (B) Delivery Time.

Step 5: Purchase dep't created a PO, and send it to the vendor who has won the bid.

Step 6: Delivery Follow-up is being continuously given to the vendors by the purchase dep't, so that the vendors may deliver in time.

Step 7: As the material is delivered to the store, its Inspection is carried out, after inspection it'll be dispatch to the site for that DN is to be created.

That was the capsule of the information, I have experienced in Purchase department.

Overall Electrical appliances used in the projects, they are executing all of them. There is a manager in SITE & Electrical Engineers operating all the electrical functions over there. Electrical execution department executes from the office & take care and maintain official reports of the electrical department of the project. This is all information I gained from the Electrical Execution department.

Conclusion
In conclusion, I have to admit that I really appreciate the way I have been guided through this internship program. Beginning from the opportunity to take the time I needed to refresh and expand my knowledge in several issues concerning rural development, education and other issues, over a somehow protected period where I could discover and learn to value my future in industry, and finally earned the confidence to deal with assignments myself. I would also like to thank the Followings: Mr. Sohail Ahmed khan (Execution Mechanical) Mr. Faraz (Planning) Mr. Usman Bin Rashid (QMS/HSE) Mr. Zuhaib Khan (Purchase) Mr. Asif (QMS/HSE)

For all their patience in attending and responding adequately to my amateurish queries.
