DO YOUR RESEARCH The SSC has developed a tool to help guide you through the Nadcap process. The Supplier Tool Sheet provides a list of where to find lots of useful information. It can be located: eAuditNet / Documents / Public Documents / Supplier Support Committee (SSC) / SSC Documents OR http://www.p-r-i.org/nadcap/supplier-support-committee/
Available on eAuditNet READ THE PROCEDURES Available on eAuditNet NIP 7-02 Audit Process NIP 7-04 Post-Audit Process NIP 7-07 Export controlled Materials & Information NOP-008 Supplier Merit Program NOP-011 Audit Failure Process Why does this matter? The procedures provide guidance on key aspects of the process including: Response timeframes How to reduce audit frequency from 12 to 24 months How NOT to fail the audit and what happens if you do Once again, please note that these document numbers and hierarchy will be changing this year.
UNDERSTAND THE NCR CLASSIFICATIONS Major Non-conformance: The absence of, or systemic breakdown of, the process control and/or quality management system OR Any non-conformance where the effect impacts or has the potential to impact the integrity of the product. Minor Non-conformance: Any single system failure or lapse in conformance with the applicable standard or audit criteria
CHECK YOUR QUALITY SYSTEM APPROVAL Nadcap recognizes: AS / EN / JISQ 9100 / 9110 / 9120 From a registrar listed in the lAQG OASIS database Substitute: AC7004 lSO / lEC 17025 For testing laboratories From a NACLA/lLAC approved accreditation body Substitute: AC7006
EVIDENCE YOUR QUALITY SYSTEM APPROVAL For initial audits: Provide a copy to PRI Scheduling when you schedule your Nadcap audit If you don’t have this, AC7004 / AC7006 will be added to the scope For reaccreditation audits Provide a copy up to 60 days after the audit end date OR Schedule AC7004 / AC7006 at least 90 days before the audit start date (if you know you won’t comply with option 1)
Be strict with yourself For each question, record: PERFORM A SELF AUDIT! Use the Nadcap checklist Be strict with yourself For each question, record: Where in your system you meet the requirement Where you have objective evidence of compliance
USE THE SELF AUDIT RESULTS TO IMPROVE YOUR OPERATIONS If you cannot list where in your system you have documentation and what you will show the auditor the answer is NO! Fix all ‘No’s with Root Cause Corrective Action before the Nadcap auditor arrives

Meet with the auditor each day for a review so there are AT THE END OF THE AUDIT Meet the auditor to review the report including any non-conformances (NCRs) Ensure all NCRs are understood: this is what you are responding to. If it’s not clear to you, will the Staff Engineer / Task Group understand? Invite the right people including top management Raise any issues or problems Meet with the auditor each day for a review so there are no surprises
AFTER THE AUDITOR LEAVES Provide feedback about the audit on eAuditNet Appeal an NCR, Staff Engineer decision or Task Group decision if you are not happy – Contact the Staff Engineer for information Contact PRI Management if you’re not satisfied Meet wih each day for a review so there are no surprises Scott Klavon Director Nadcap program and Aerospace Operations +1-724-772-7111 sklavon@p-r-i.org
RESPOND TO ALL NON-CONFORMANCES Provide the following in your answer: Immediate Corrective Action Taken (Containment) Root Cause of Non-conformance Impact of all Identified Causes and the Root Cause Action Taken to Prevent Recurrence Objective Evidence Attached
RESPONSE DUE DATES Initial responses: 21 calendar days Subsequent responses: 7 calendar days Important note: This is the time to respond to the NCRs, not necessarily to fix them No extensions can be granted BUT 30 extra days are allocated in case more time is needed Be aware: using extra days may affect merit and using more than 30 extra days may result in audit failure
CERTIFICATION I added this slide to show the suppliers what their cert will look like. Feel free to delete it if you feel it unnecessary.
When can a Supplier use the Nadcap Logo? The Nadcap Logo can be used for promoting one or multiple Nadcap Accreditations once Accreditation is achieved. There is no limit to how a facility utilizes the Nadcap logo. Where can a Supplier find the logo or a policy on how to use the Nadcap Logo ? An email is sent to the Supplier after Nadcap Accreditation is achieved that includes copies of high definition logos and s-frm-48, “Use of the Mark Of Conformity, Program Certificate and Program Name”. Who do you contact with questions about using the Nadcap Logo? Call +1 (724) 772-8661 and a Commodity Service Representative can answer any questions. This slide was added at the request of the CSRs. There has been an increase of findings due to misuse of mark of conformity.
