  4. OBJECTIVES This submodule will • Describe ASME’s conformity assessment programs ASME C&S Training Module B9

  5. AGENDA • Introduction to Conformity Assessment • Board on Pressure Technology Programs • Board on Nuclear Codes & Standards Programs • Board on Safety Codes & Standards Programs • Board on Standardization Programs • Board on Conformity Assessment Programs ASME C&S Training Module B9

  6. I. INTRODUCTION TO CONFORMITY ASSESSMENT ASME C&S Training Module B9

  7. IMPORTANCE OF CONFORMITY ASSESSMENT PROCESS • Conformity Assessment Process ensures • Products, services, or systems have the required characteristics • Characteristics are consistent from product to product, service to service, or system to system • Individuals can be evaluated to determine whether they meet the qualification requirements of an ASME standard ASME C&S Training Module B9

  8. CONFORMITY ASSESSMENT • Definition (ISO/IEC Guide 2) “Any activity concerned with determining directly or indirectly that relevant requirements are fulfilled” Examples: Sampling; testing and inspection; evaluation; verification and assurance of conformity (supplier’s declaration); certification; registration; accreditation; approval ASME C&S Training Module B9

  9. CONFORMITY ASSESSMENT • ASME Program Types • Accreditation • Certification • Registration ASME C&S Training Module B9

  10. ACCREDITATION • General definition (ISO/IEC Guide 2) “Procedure by which an authoritative body gives formal recognition that a body or person is competent to carry out specific tasks” ASME C&S Training Module B9

  11. ASME ACCREDITATION • Applicability • Companies that supply a product or service covered by an ASME standard (not individuals) • Examples: • Manufacturers of boilers or pressure vessels (ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code) • Organizations that certify elevator inspectors (ASME QEI-1 Standard for Qualification of Elevator Inspectors) ASME C&S Training Module B9

  12. ASME ACCREDITATION • Meaning of ASME accreditation • Supplier’s quality assurance program has been reviewed by ASME and meets the requirements of the relevant ASME standard [CSP-20] NOTE: ASME only accredits the quality management system; the supplier must certify the product. ASME C&S Training Module B9

  13. ASME ACCREDITATION • Accreditation process • ASME audit team on-site review • Formal recognition • Certificate of Authorization or Accreditation • Certificate valid for specified period ASME C&S Training Module B9

  14. ASME ACCREDITATION • Certificates • Certificate of Authorization • Organization may certify that their equipment conforms to the ASME standard • May stamp equipment with an ASME mark • Certificate of Accreditation • Varies from program to program ASME C&S Training Module B9

  15. ASME ACCREDITATION • Audits • Verify continued compliance • Typically annual • Types • Announced • Unannounced • Third-Party Inspection • Conducted by Authorized Inspection Agency, if one exists ASME C&S Training Module B9

  16. CERTIFICATION • General definition (ISO/IEC Guide 2) “Procedure by which a third party gives written assurance that a product, process, or service conforms to specified requirements” ASME C&S Training Module B9

  17. ASME CERTIFICATION • Applicability • An individual performing an activity whose qualifications are covered by an ASME standard • Example: hazardous waste incinerator operator • Meaning of ASME certification • Individual has met the qualification criteria specified in the standard • Doesnotlicense the individual to perform a specific task ASME C&S Training Module B9

  18. ASME CERTIFICATION • Certification process • Evaluation of education and/or experience requirements • Oral or written examinations • Formal recognition • Certificate or Certification Card • Valid for 3 to 5 years • Benefits of certification • Means of compliance with regulation • Confirmation of competence ASME C&S Training Module B9

  19. ASME REGISTRATION(ASME ISO 9000 Registration) • Applicability • Companies (“suppliers or organizations”) • Meaning of registration • Company’s quality management system meets International Organization for Standardization’s ISO 9000 standard ASME C&S Training Module B9
