CFSI Detection: Have oversight of the continuous process that is carried out during the manufacturing, delivery, construction, installation and commissioning phases of the project. Detection is achieved by using a combination of audit, surveillance and inspection carried out by suitably qualified and experienced personnel (SQEP) throughout the project life cycle.
CFSI Resolution: Assist in the management of the resolution process activated when a CFSI event is detected either by the internal detection process or via an external third party advising of a potential CFSI event. Within 24 hours of the event notification an Event Alert should be raised. This action should trigger a series of internal and external stakeholder reviews that enable an informed decision to be made regarding the event. If the decision confirms a CFSI event has occurred CFSI investigation will commence
