Abstract Noise control has become a critical consideration in various industries to ensure a safe and comfortable working environment while adhering to regulatory standards. Buy Quiet Strategy is an approach aimed at reducing noise pollution and protecting the hearing health of workers. It involves making decisions that prioritize quieter equipment and design. The key concept behind Buy Quiet is to select and purchase tools, machines, and equipment that produce less noise during operation. In PETRONAS, implementing Buy Quiet strategy during design stage is crucial to optimally minimizing noise emissions at the source by selecting or designing quieter equipment. Factory Acceptance Tests (FATs) is one of the essential components of Buy Quiet strategy, but their potential benefits extend beyond mere quality control. The paper outlines the various stages of a Factory Acceptance Test, emphasizing the importance of detailed inspection and performance evaluation. This paper also delves into the benefits of early noise control intervention through FATs, including cost savings through design modifications, reduced downtime, and enhanced compliance with noise regulations. By prioritizing noise control at the manufacturing stage, companies can create a competitive advantage by delivering quieter, more environmentally responsible products.
