Bob Koukol reviewed the safety information and emergency exits in the Meeting Room. All attendees were advised to inform PRI Staff of any emergencies.

The Code of Ethics, Anti-Trust & Conflict of Interest was reviewed by Bob Koukol.

The Committee agenda was reviewed.

Motion made by Roger Merriman and seconded by Scott Maitland to approve the February 2018 NMC Standardization Committee minutes from Madrid, Spain. Motion Passed.

It was noted that the expected attendees in the NMC Standardization Committee agenda needs to be updated to remove former NMC members.

2.0 SELF-AUDIT SUBMITTAL REQUIREMENTS

Bob Koukol updated the Committee on the status of the implementation plan developed by the Self Audit Sub-Team.

All Task Groups except Materials Testing Laboratories (MTL) have implemented the three questions about submitting the self-audit into their checklists. The MTL core checklist (AC7101/1) is currently in the revision process and resolving ballot comments.

CONFIRMED

3.0 SUPPLIER MERIT

Victor Schonberger provided an update on the Supplier Merit Sub-Team’s activities. The team met in person in London to further develop the proposal.

The sub-team is working to ensure that the suggested new process does not significantly impact merit/failure, is clearly understood and ready for implementation (e.g. classification of NCR’s), and does not overwhelm Task Groups with advisories.

The sub-team has agreed on the following definition of Potential Product Impact:

A nonconformance to the technical requirements defined in the applicable specification, purchase order, or drawing, or any other circumstance that is likely to impact the integrity of the product. Or- a systemic nonconformance that has a reasonable potential to cause impact to hardware if not corrected (e.g. cases of failure to flow down customer requirements).

Task Groups will be requested to develop examples specific to their commodity on when a spec/drawing violation would not be considered a major finding. Once these are agreed with the sub-team, Task Groups will need to perform an assessment on 5% of their audits over a year to determine the impact on merit.

Final recommendations will be made after evaluation of this assessment.

4.0 MANAGEMENT OF CHANGE (MOC)

Richard Blyth gave a status update on the MOC sub-team.

At the February 2018 meeting, the Sub-Team proposed three (3) questions be added to checklists; these were accepted by the NMC. Richard Blyth attended the February Staff Engineer SWSAT Meeting to obtain feedback.

The feedback resulted in a change to the first question, focusing on compliance. There was also a question if the questions be applicable to all Task Groups, for example, Aerospace Quality Systems (AQS) and testing (Materials Testing Laboratories (MTL), Non-Metallic Materials Testing (NMMT)).

ACTION ITEM: Ask AQS Task Group if process change control system questions should be added into the AC7004 checklist. (Due Date: 23-Oct-2018)

The questions will be incorporated into the proposed new NMC Core Checklist. Task Groups will need to begin creating examples of process changes relevant to their commodity.

CONFIRMED

5.0 NO AEROSPACE CUSTOMERS

Jim Lewis gave a status update regarding Nadcap Accreditation with no Aerospace Job Audits.

Procedures (OP 1114 and OP 1105) addressing proposed changes have been released.

Adding a required checklist question to t-frm-15 regarding identifying customers has been put on hold due to the proposal for an NMC checklist. An eAuditNet enhancement to require Subscriber customers be identified prior to completing scope verification is being implemented to address this.

The eAuditNet Enhancement regarding a designation on the QML if in-process job audits could not be conducted on aerospace/defense parts is still in queue.

6.0 NMC REQUIREMENTS CHECKLIST

Jim Lewis reviewed a proposal to incorporate NMC-required checklist questions into a “core” checklist as there are several standard questions which go across all commodities and the number of NMC required checklist questions is increasing. Task Groups must make revisions to implement these questions, which increases the number of revisions and can also delay the implementation if checklists are already in the revision process.

An NMC checklist would ensure consistency of implementation, more timely implementation, increased effectiveness, verbiage consistency, and consistency of understanding requirements.

There are several issues which must still be worked out.

To whom should the document be balloted? How do we deal with changes/periodic review? Is it included in every Nadcap audit, especially on an AQS conducted in conjunction with

another Task Group? Should it be listed on the Scope of Accreditation? Who will control and implement training? Where will we keep handbook requirements (is there a handbook)? Can we alleviate the concern about the time and repetition of the audit?

Motion made by Jeff Cerre and seconded by Jim Cummings to move forward with this proposal. Motion passed (29 in favor, 2 opposed).

A sub-team was formed to lead this activity: Bob Koukol (lead), Pascal Blondet, Richard Blyth, Daniel Calderwood, Jim Cummings, Jonathan Hebben, Shelly Lawless, Scott Maitland, Roger Merriman, Steven Meyer, Alessandro Miglio, John Pfeiffer, Fabrizio Quadrini, Gary White, Connie Hess, Jim Lewis, Brittany McSorley, Kellie O’Connor, and Kevin Wetzel.

ACTION ITEM: NMC Checklist Sub-Team to develop process for NMC controlled core checklist. (Due Date: 22-Oct-2018)

7.0 ROLLING ACTION ITEM LIST (RAIL)

Jim Lewis reviewed status of Open Action Items from previous meetings and the following were closed.

STND-288 STND-293 STND-294 STND-298 STND-299

Any new Action Items identified in the minutes will be added to the RAIL.

8.0 NEW BUSINESS

There was a concern about the OP 1105 requirement 4.1.3 about whether the self-audit needs to be uploaded 30 days prior to the scheduled audit date or the originally scheduled audit date. It was clarified that the requirement is 30 days prior to the actual start date of the audit.

ACTION ITEM: Jim Lewis to remind the Staff Engineers that audits which fall under the circumstances defined in OP 1105 (Audit Process) paragraphs 4.1.3.1.1 and 4.1.3.1.2, the self-audit would not need to be submitted 30 days prior to the audit. (Due Date: 20-Jun-2018)

ADJOURNMENT – 19-Jun-2018 – Meeting was adjourned at 11:00 a.m.
