Lessons Learned over the years on joint assessments
Lessons Learned Scheduling Joint Activity • OEM to identify assessor to conduct assessments ASAP (and notify AB) • OEM to notify AB of any assessor changes ASAP • ANAB to notify all parties of assessor change • Make sure replacement is qualified. • After the confirmation letter (which can come months prior to an assessment) an OEM will not get another notice of the assessment until a few weeks prior to the assessment.
Lessons Learned Preparation for Joint Activity • OP assessor must • Be qualified/trained • Have knowledge of the standards • Have a copy of the standards • Have signed and turned in Appendix I • Have post-activity forms to complete All to be provided by OEM not by the AB.
Lessons Learned CB Office Assessment Conduct • Not conducting 2nd party audits • Caution with conflict of interest and confidentiality. • Acquiring information for OEM procurement process is not acceptable.
Lessons Learned CB Witness Assessment Conduct • Organization may ask questions about the oversight; OP assessor may have to explain the oversight process (during opening meeting, breaks, etc) • Asking simple questions and/or making simple comments during Witness Assessment is considered interfering. • Picking up records, materials, parts, etc. is considered interfering • Talking to the AB assessor team is distracting during the audit. • Not conducting 2nd party audits
Lessons LearnedJoint Assessment Post-Activity • OEM assessors to complete AS9104-2 appendices in a timely manner. • If a decision is appealed by CB; be available to participate in appeal hearing.
