The following certification issues are being considered for clarification by AS Senior Document Representatives, following recent discussions by SDRs, CBs and representatives from industry:
- What is considered a single site? (e.g.; a company with three buildings located on three different streets). What is the definition of location?
- What is considered a ‘lost’ certification? Is it when suspended and/or withdrawn?
- What kind of an audit is needed for a transfer?
- Are all sites required to be listed in OASIS and have an administrator for a campus?
- What is required to be verified in this requirement:
- “No certificates to AQMS standards or any combination of AQMS standards requiring a certification decision shall be issued, unless all major and minor nonconformities have been contained; satisfactorily corrected with root cause analysis; and the corrective action has been implemented, reviewed, accepted, and verified by the CB.”
Further notes:
“At this time, 80% {of representatives) do not want to separate AS9100 from the base of ISO9001 as has been rumored. There will also be more of a focus on servicing and not just production. They are planning for a 2016 release of AS9100.”
I will update as new information comes in.
