pertaining to the functions and responsibilities
the contractor/builder/whatever or third party in charge of the... may discharge in any capacity.
The Italian is not a jewel and is uselessly complicated. It should go something like: non e' responsabile delle funzioni e responsabilita' che costruttore o terzi (incaricato dei lavori) esercitano a qualsiasi titolo
That is, no matter in what capacity contractor and third party discharge their functions and responsibility the company is not responsible.
Methinks it makes some sense.Hope it helps.

In Portuguese, which is my language, "a qualquer titulo" means "at any cost" although "titulo" itself means "instrument". I'm practically certain that it's the same in Italian.

on whatsoever ground
"per qualsiasi motivo" è giusto. La frase è scritta in un italiano purtroppo molto in uso in ambienti burocratici anche elevati... "rientrante" puoi renderlo come "pertaining", meaning "... [di atti] che riguardano nelle funzioni
