  2. features of the approach taken • accreditation/certification • start-up QA/QC procedures • QA/QC maintenance procedures • human resources needed

  3. features of the approach taken • accreditation/certification • start-up QA/QC procedures • QA/QC maintenance procedures • human resources needed

  4. features of the approach taken

  5. features of the approach taken 17000-series: conformity assessment ISO 17020 supersedes EN 45004, no modifications in text Accreditation Body ISO 17011 Laboratories ISO 17025 Inspection bodies ISO 17020 Certification Management Systems ISO 17021 Products EN 45011 Personnel ISO 17024

  6. features of the approach taken

  7. features of the approach taken ISO 17020 Title: “General Criteria for the operation of various types of bodies performing inspection” in addition to ISO 9001 relevantrequirements are: • evaluation of technical competence • independence, impartiality and integrity • confidentiality, co-operation ISO 9001 is specific to quality management systems relevant requirements of the EN/ISO 9000 series of standards applying to the quality systems for inspection bodies are incorporated in ISO 17020 Inspection Examination of a product design, product, service, process or plant and determination of their conformity with specific requirementsor, on the basis of professional judgement, general requirements (ISO 17020)

  8. ISO 17020 – IPCC-GPG – ISO 9001

  9. ISO 17020 – IPCC-GPG – ISO 9001

  10. ISO 17020 – IPCC-GPG – ISO 9001

  11. features of the approach taken • accreditation/certification • start-up QA/QC procedures • QA/QC maintenance procedures • human resources needed

  12. Definitions: accreditation/certification

  13. Definitions: accreditation/certification accreditation evaluation of technical competence (≠ ISO 9001) “Accreditation is a 3rd party attestation related to a conformity assessment body conveying formal demonstration of its competence to carry out specific conformity assessment tasks” (ISO IEC 17011) 3rd party periodic review that inspection body still complies with all requirements as stipulated by ISO 17020

  14. Definitions: accreditation/certification Independence, impartiality and integrity The personnel of the inspection body shall be free from any commercial, financial and other pressures which might affect their judgement. Procedures shall be implemented to ensure that persons or organisations external to the inspection body cannot influence the results of inspections carried out

  15. Definitions: accreditation/certification accreditation audit in autumn 2005 witness audit by 2 auditors (experts): • quality management system • ISO 17020 • EA 05/01 Dec 2003 rev 3 • inventory • country specific methods • LULUCF-GPG (2003) • IPCC-GPG (2000) • IPCC rev. guidelines (1996) • CORINAIR • UNFCCC guidelines on reporting and review (FCCC/CP/2002/8) • CRF tables for LULUCF (FCCC/CP/2003/6/Add. 1)

  16. elements of ISO 17020 • Administrative requirements (organisation legally identifiable) • Independence, impartiality and integrity • Organisation and management (clearly defined responsibilities, training of staff) • Quality system (QC/QA procedures, reporting, documentation, achieving, internal and external audits, improvement plan, management review) • Personnel (recruitment, CPD) • Methods (choice, applicability) • Records (backup) • Confidentiality,Facilities and equipment, Reports, Sub-contracting, Complaints, Co-operation

  17. feature of the approach taken • accreditation/certification • start-up QA/QC procedures • QA/QC maintenance procedures • human resources needed

  18. start-up QA/QC procedures • validation of methods (choice, applicability) • data management • setting up: documentation, reporting, archiving • organisational arrangements - personnel (recruitment, CPD) - defined responsibilities - management review, audits

  19. start-up QA/QC procedures

  20. features of the approach taken • accreditation/certification • start-up QA/QC procedures • QA/QC maintenance procedures • human resources needed

  21. QA/QC maintenance procedures QC (personnel directly involved in inventory preparation) • documentation, reporting, achieving • Tier 1 and Tier 2 QC checks QA (personnel not directly involved in inventory preparation) • internal review of CRF, NIR

  22. features of the approach taken • accreditation/certification • start-up QA/QC procedures • QA/QC maintenance procedures • human resources needed

  23. human resources needed Implementation: 2,5 person-years Maintenance: approx. 10-15% in addition to inventory work
