Purpose The AS9104 document will be reviewed and revised in 2006. This is a general discussion and your opportunity to provide feedback on: Conformance issues What needs clarification What should be added or removed
Examples Additional clarification regarding the initial approval of AB's, CB's, Training Provider Certification Bodies (TPCB) is needed. Note: An example of a TPCB is RAB/QSA in the Americas. Criteria for oversight of Auditor Authentication Bodies (AAB). Authentication Board (AAB) as the name of the EAQG OPMT's auditor review team. There needs to be additional requirements for SMS approval of Certification Body Management Committees (CBMC). The standard does not address SMS approval, Authority, Reporting or the Structure of CBMC's. Note: CBMC's are used today in EAQG but there are plans to expand in Asia Pacific (Korea, China) and perhaps in the Americas with Brazil. No criteria for oversight of Auditor Authentication Bodies (AAB). The definition for Sector Management Structure needs to reviewed and updated. There remains confusion between the various entities (SMS, CBMC, OPMT, RMC, etc.) The standard requires SMS approval of the in depth auditor training course and course provider (Training Provider) but no criteria for approval.
