2.0 REVIEW DELEGATION STATUS – CLOSED

The Metrics tab on the eAuditNet Dashboard and the t-frm-07s for all reviewers were presented. All current delegated reviewers (Kevin Wetzel, Rob Hoeth, Jim Lewis, and Bob Lizewski) continue to meet the requirements defined in NOP-003. After review of all comments addressed in t-frm-07s, there were no issues that required additional actions. All reviewers maintained their delegation status.

3.0 AUDITOR CONSISTENCY (NOP-012) – CLOSED

A presentation on auditor consistency based on question 15 of the Supplier Feedback was presented. The question in the feedback is, “Was the auditor consistent in their application of requirements as compared to previous audits?” All comments (14) were discussed for this question when it was marked as “No” by the supplier. No immediate action was defined by the Task Group. The Task Group will monitor the effectiveness of the revised Audit Criteria and Audit Handbook supplements.

Specific concerns were discussed on a comment from one audit which dealt with consistent interpretation of DIN/EN/ISO test standards and how the Audit Criteria address European testing requirements. The question was is there a need to ensure all specifications are reviewed, and if so, how should this be tracked. The Task Group is to determine if a subscriber matrix is needed to cover the testing requirements of all standards. Also, global standards will be incorporated in the Auditor Conference and additions will be made to the Audit Handbook as needed for standards which are not currently covered by the checklists.

ACTION ITEM: PRI staff to send an email requesting Subscriber participation on a team addressing potential review of all standards during an audit. (Due Date: 31-Mar-2015)

http://www.eAuditNet.com/


ACTION ITEM: Task Group Subscribers to form a team to determine if there is a need to ensure all specifications are reviewed/observed, ASTM, DIN, EN, and ISO and if so how this should be accomplished. (Due Date: 22-Jun-2015)

A Subscriber Audit Observation was reviewed which was the only observation since the October meeting. There were no concerns.

MTL Auditor Consistency Data and Top 10 NCR report was presented and there were no concerns.

Amanda Rickman reported on the 19-Feb-2015 oversight audit conference call regarding auditor consistency and NOP-012 compliance. During this call, the MTL Task Group decided they do not require a separate t-frm-01 appendix.

6.0 NADCAP TUTORIAL – OPEN

An MTL Task Group Tutorial was presented. No further discussion followed.


Bryan Hall gave a brief presentation concerning the Supplier Support Committee (SSC). This was an effort to increase MTL Supplier attendance at the SSC meeting scheduled for 03-March-2015. For complete details of the meeting, see the SSC Minutes posted on www.p-r-i.org.

The new Nadcap document structure was presented. The new document structure is comprised of PD 1100 and 23 supporting Operating Procedures all under NMC control. This transition will occur in two phases. Phase 1 will allow the new structure to become operational without making any changes to existing requirements. Phase 2 will comprise a systematic approach to reviewing and revising each new document one at a time. Phase 2 will be the opportunity to change requirements, address clarity, and add or remove requirements.

Task Group Document Balloting was discussed emphasizing the issue with too many individuals waiving during a ballot causing an invalid ballot on checklists that have a limited number of voting members with expertise in specific technology areas. The ability to perform a high level review for flow and format and accepting the ballot with a comment that the review was limited is appropriate as opposed to the use of a waive which should only be used to abstain from the ballot.

A request was made if a seven (7) day warning email can be sent out to the Voting Members if a current ballot has not made the minimum requirements to be valid at that point.

ACTION ITEM: Jenn Kornrumpf to send 7 day warning email to the Voting Members if a current ballot has not made the minimum requirements of participation to be a valid ballot. (Due Date: 31-Mar-2015)

http://www.p-r-i.org/


Industry Standard Update:

The ASTM E01 Committee is continuing to work on a Spark-AES method for nickel alloys and Titanium alloys. The expectation is that both methods will be completed in 2015. The Guide for the Production of Reference Materials has been balloted and is getting closer to being completed. A new practice is underway on the utilization of commercially prepared reference materials. They are also discussing changes in the certification requirements of combustion/fusion reference materials.

The ASTM E08 Committee (Fatigue and Fracture) current revision activity is for E466 (Load control fatigue). Some of the E08-05 subcommittee members do not feel that alignment per E1012 is adequate for high cycle fatigue (load control) testing. Proposals have included some things that it is felt that Nadcap approved labs will likely vote on negatively. The current effort to get E466 approved before it reaches it’s time limit expiration has been stymied. It is expected to finally pass this year, but challenges to the labs doing E466 testing and claiming E1012 as their alignment proof will increase. There are currently significant differences of opinion.

The fatigue round robin is about 60% complete for both E466 (load control) and E606 (strain control) using Ti 6-4, Al 6061 T6, and API 5X steel. Many Nadcap approved labs are participating, but there may be a need for more, especially for strain control testing of the aluminum and steel materials.

The ASTM E28 Committee (Mechanical test) has revisions to E8 and E21 underway currently. The main topics are to standardize terms (e.g. the difference between gauge section and reduced section) and to make E21 more like E8 in the way it calls out elongation and reduction in area.

The ASTM E04 Committee only significant change is another ballot on ASTM E384.

The next ASTM meeting is in Anaheim, CA on May 18th - 20th, 2015.

TAG Activity:

The TAG function was reviewed and the TAG Roster was updated during the review of the current membership. Don Huffman has volunteered to be the Chair of the /11 TAG.

ACTION ITEM: Bryan Hall to solicit current AC7101/11 revision group to form /11 TAG. (Due Date: 22-Jun-2015)

TAG 1 Had one unresolved question which was brought to the meeting for resolution.

Current Handbook Guidance states: “If the lab procedure states a certain number of days within which customers to be contacted, auditor is to cross-check with, e.g. three customer requirement documents as to whether this is acceptable. For instance, Boeing requires reporting within three working days.”

Proposed Guidance as follows was accepted: Add sentence - “If the procedure is anything other than 3 days, the auditor is to look for the evidence of the customer document with the requirement.” Errors in testing definition must note that this pertains only to after a test report has been released.

Handbook Activity:

Derek Sicotte provided a review of handbook changes. The last Handbook revision was released December 2014.

Audit Duration:


Jennifer McKeegan reported on the Audit Checklist length form which is used to track time spent during each audit. Concerns were discussed on pre-audit time spent and if there would be value in capturing this, but this was deemed outside the scope of this team’s responsibility.

Motion made by Jennifer McKeegan to Request each auditor and supplier fill out an audit grading form to evaluate the time being spent each day on each checklist until the Pittsburgh October 2015 meeting. It will be decided as a TG if the form continues past the October 2015 meeting. Motion seconded. Motion Passed.

ACTION ITEM: Kevin Wetzel to issue an Open Auditor Advisory on the use of the Audit Grading Form. (Due Date: 31-Mar-2015)

MTL Audit Reviewers Expectation:

Dan Graves reported that the expectations should be ready to be presented in the Pittsburgh 2015 meeting.

8.0 MTL TASK GROUP SUBSCRIBERS AND NMC SUBSCRIBERS – CLOSED

Frank Mariot provided a brief report on where MTL is currently in meeting the Checklist Content requirements of NOP 002. MTL is now past the due date for compliance and must either demonstrate compliance or remove the checklist items currently marked for obsolescence (double daggers). After discussion, Frank stated, if a requirement is present in an industry standard or if it is a single subscriber requirement that is agreed to by the group, it can remain in the checklist.

Amanda Rickman stated that identifying items for obsolescence was too aggressive and compliance has been moving forward with other checklists. The AC7101/1 was the first checklist revised and had the largest issue with compliance.

The progress was presented on the analysis for AC7101/1, AC7101/3, and AC7101/4, and of all criteria in these checklists, only one item in AC7101/4 could not be tied to a specific requirement. The full analysis on all checklist criteria is expected to be completed by the June 2015 meeting in Montreal.

Motion made by Gary Winters to remove the double daggers from in front of all questions with the exception of AC7101/4 6.5.2 which will be removed due to lack of an industry standard or at least one reference in a subscriber specification. Motion Seconded. Motion Passed.

The double dagger identification will be removed by editorial change to the checklists by the June 2015 meeting in Montreal. AC7101/4 will require a formal ballot to the Task Group and NMC for removal of paragraph 6.5.2.

ACTION ITEM: Kevin Wetzel to make editorial changed to AC7101/1, AC7101/3, and AC7101/4. (Due Date: 31-Mar-2015)

ACTION ITEM: PRI Staff to ballot AC7101/4 with the removal of paragraph 6.5.2. (Due Date: 31-Mar-2015)

9.0 AC7101/3 & AC7101/6 BREAKOUT SESSIONS – OPEN

A review of data from the previous year’s audits was presented to develop NOP-011 Mode B Failure Criteria.

Motion made by Bob Olevson to maintain current failure criteria. Motion Seconded. Motion Passed.

ACTION ITEM: Kevin Wetzel to notify NOP-011 Document owner of the Task Group decision to maintain current MTL Mode B Failure Criteria. (Due Date: 13-Mar-2015)

RAIL Item 23, for TAGs to define Test Codes for all accredited methods, progress was discussed. To date, only feedback was received for AC7101/4 and AC7101/7. AC7101/6 test codes will be defined during the current revision. AC7101/5 only has 3 codes that are already defined. AC7101/2 and AC7101/3 still need to respond.

RAIL Item 17, for what records are required to address Audit Criteria, was reviewed. James Foster will follow up with Tim Myers, the lead of this Sub-Team, to determine the progress with the TAG Chairs. TAG Chairs are to report out in Montreal.

RAIL Item 25, for Bryan Hall to create language for the TAGs to collect revision suggestions and consider a checklist revision every other year for review at the March 2015 Nadcap, resulted in a proposal.

Motion made by Bryan Hall to have the TAG chairs keep track of all checklist revision suggestions, and to propose to the TAG two years after checklist revision the possibility of another revision. If not enough content exists to justify the revision, it will be tabled for a year. Otherwise, a proposed revision is readied for ballot. Motion seconded. Motion Passed.

ACTION ITEM: Bryan Hall to create a template to collect revision suggestions and standardized report out to the Task Group. Templates will be sent to Task Group Chair and distributed to the TAG Chairs. (Due Date: 17-Apr-2015)

Motion made by Amanda Rickman to add to existing Audit Handbook Guidance “Topics for TAG support may include: Clarification of audit criteria before or after an audit (TAGs should not be used to resolve issues anytime between a supplier and an auditor during an audit.” and “TAG interpretation shall not be used during NCR closure.”

ACTION ITEM: Derek Sicotte to add to existing Audit Handbook Guidance “Topics for TAG support may include: Clarification of audit criteria before or after an audit (TAGs should not be used to resolve issues anytime between a supplier and an auditor during an audit.” and “TAG interpretation shall not be used during NCR closure.” (Due Date: 17-Apr-2015)
