Introduction
The purpose of this specification is to establish the priority of project documentation used in the equipment design.
While designing, it isn't difficult to find documents with same subject but different specification/values. For example, there may be a data sheet in which the design pressure is 10 MPa and in the purchase order, it's cited as 5 MPa. Both documents belong to the same project and equipment. The best approach is to contact the person responsible for these documents and ask for clarification (which value shall be used) but, sometimes, asking for clarification can take time (weeks, maybe months), so having a priority list helps in these cases (for example, data sheet is above purchase order, so it's value should be used).
1. Scope
This specification shall be used in every project in which the Customer didn't specify a documentation priority list.
