Course Objectives • To assist you in understanding: • the requirements of the current revision of QS-9000 3rd Edition and the objective evidence needed to show conformance • how the Quality System is defined and the structure of each level of documentation. • the significance of interpersonal relationships (auditor etiquette) in the audit process and the importance of good interview techniques • how to use the QSA checklists during an audit. • the importance of taking audit notes during the process sufficient to provide objective evidence of system conformity as well as nonconformity with the documentation against which the audit is being conducted. • To provide you with the tools to successfully: • collect and analyze evidence during the audit, relate specific situations to the appropriate elements of the standard, and exercise objectivity in the review of evidence collected. • write reports based on objective evidence obtained during the course of the audit in the QSI Internal Assessment database. • evaluate the significance of nonconformities recorded during the audit and classify them in accordance with Division instruction WI-0012, How to Use the Corrective Action Database. • identify and undertake the responsibilities as an auditor. • plan and organize all aspects of an audit including the documentation reviews and conformance evaluation activities. • manage the opening and closing audit meetings Page 3 Internal Auditor Training
Introduction to ISO/QS-9000 Goal The goal for Quality Systems Requirements QS-9000 is the development of fundamental quality systems that provide for continuous improvement, emphasizing defect prevention and the reduction of variation and waste in the supply chain. Purpose QS-9000 Defines the fundamental quality system expectations of Chrysler, ford and General Motors, Truck Manufacturers and other subscribing companies for internal and external suppliers of production and service parts and materials. These companies are committed to working with suppliers to ensure customer satisfaction beginning with conformance to quality requirements and continuing with reduction of variation and waste to benefit the final customer, the supply base, and themselves. Approach QS-9000 is harmonization of Chrysler’s Supplier Quality Assurance Manual, Ford’s Q101 Quality System Standard and General Motor’s NAO Targets for Excellence with input from the truck manufacturers. ISO9001:1994 Section 4 has been adopted as the foundation for QS-9000 and is printed in Section I in italic type. Interpretations and supplemental quality system requirements have been harmonized and are printed in normal type. The word “shall” indicates mandatory requirement. The work “should” indicates a mandatory requirement with some flexibility allowed in compliance methodology. Suppliers choosing other approaches to satisfy a “should” must be able to show that their approach meets the intent of QS-9000. Where “typical”, “example”, “may” or “e.g.” are used, any suggestions given are for guidance only. Page 4 Internal Auditor Training
General Requirements Page 5 Internal Auditor Training
Definition of a Quality System • Quality Assurance Management System Objectives • Meet customer requirements • Make sure system is proactive, not reactive • Quality Assurance System • A quality assurance system employs process controls to assure adequate confidence that the end item will fulfill requirements and prevent nonconformities. • Quality Control System • A quality control system is, by definition, the operational techniques and activities used to fulfill requirements for quality. • Quality Plan • A document setting out the specific quality practices, resources and sequence of activities relevant to a particular product or contract. Page 6 Internal Auditor Training
Quality System Documentation Progression Page 7 Internal Auditor Training
Documentation Structure • The Quality Manual (defines approach and responsibility; written and controlled at Division) • The manual is the governing working document and should include: • Description of the system • Definition of policy • Commitment to quality • Responsibility and authority • Description and implementation of Level II procedures • Procedures (defines who, what and when; written and controlled at Division) • Procedures form the second level • Implement policies set forth in the manual • Procedures are interdepartmental (involve several departments) • Address the general flow and control of each system covered in the QS-9000 standard • Work Instructions (defines how; written and controlled by both Division and the plant) • Instructions form the third level • Instructions are intradepartmental • Provide the step-by-step information on how to perform a specific task • Records (records information and may become a quality record; written and controlled by both Division and the plant) • Records comprise the fourth level • Support the entire quality system • Demonstrate conformance to specified requirements Page 8 Internal Auditor Training
Audit Levels • First-Party Audits • The first-party audit is a quality system audit conducted by an organization on its own system (internal auditing) • The purpose is to assure management that the company’s quality systems are promoting the achievement of quality objectives. These audits can be performed by either the organization’s staff (provided they are independent of the systems being audited) or an outside agency (personnel from other plants). • Second-Party Audits • This audit is performed by one organization on another, with which the auditing organization either has, or intends to enter into, a contract to purchase goods or services. • The purpose is to assure the purchasing organization that the supplier’s quality system can sustain delivery of products or services if under contract or provide those goods on services at an agreed-upon quality level. • Third-Party Audits • The third-party audit is performed by an independent agency that is accredited. • The audit’s purpose is to provide assurance on the quality system’s effectiveness per a national standard such as QS-9000.

Case Study The internal auditor from SPX CONTECH/Metal Forge requested to see the calibration laboratory. When Sam Smith and the auditor arrived at the calibration lab, Smith introduced the auditor to Joe Caliper, lead technician for the calibration lab. Joe explained that he was repairing a voltmeter (the only one they have) for checking production unit (1.5) volt batteries. The meter had just been found out of calibration during the routine monthly calibration cycle. The auditor, through a series of questions, determined that the meter was reading 0.4 volts high, but it was a simple adjustment to the meter to bring it back into calibration. Joe indicated that this type of occurrence happens frequently but that all he has to do is repair and recalibrate the equipment and that’s the end of it. “I don’t even need to keep records of this,” he said. The auditor then asked, “Are batteries identified as a critical component?” Smith said, “Yes they are.” When the auditor asked to see the calibration records of the gages he had noted in assembly, Joe pulled the gage history cards and gave them to the auditor. One gage was out of calibration and the as-received data recorded. When asked what action was taken when a gage was out of calibration, Joe replied that he calibrated it and sent it back to the floor. When asked if statistical studies were performed on new gages, Joe replied that they did up to a year ago, but they got so busy he had to stop making them. “Perhaps we should proceed to incoming inspection,” said the auditor. “If you’re going that way,” said Joe, “here take this meter to Sam, I just calibrated it and he needs it.” Case Study Questions: Are there any deficiencies to ISO/QS-9000? If so, what are they? Page 37 Internal Auditor Training
