1.5 Approval of Previous Meeting Minutes
Motion made by Dave Soong and seconded by Scott Maitland to confirm the minutes from the previous meeting. Motion passed and the February 2016 NMC Planning & Operations meeting minutes were approved as written.
2.0 RAIL Review – OPEN
The Rolling Action Item List (RAIL) was reviewed. P&O-32 & 48 were closed. P&O-44 & 45 are still in process.
For specific details, please see the attached RAIL.
3.0 RISK MITIGATION
Scott Maitland gave an update on the Risk Mitigation process change. OP 1110 has been revised and approved, however its release is pending updates to eAuditNet, expected by end of the year. For further details, please see the attached presentation.
4.0 observations
Bob Lizewski gave a status update on audit observations conducted year to date. Based on the data review, there were a few observer recommendations for overall improvement, which is recommended to be discussed at the Task Group meetings, as well as during the Task Group Auditor Conference sessions in October 2016. For further details, please see the attached presentation.
The Audit Observation dashboard is now complete in eAuditNet. It is located under the Metrics tool, and then by selecting Observations. Following this presentation, P&O-30 is now considered closed. P&O-47 is still open, pending additional enhancements.
There was a concern about the low number of Aerospace Quality Systems (AQS) Task Group observers available to conduct the necessary observations. It was suggested that perhaps there should be an exception created for AQS since those auditors would already be observed by the special process observer.
ACTION ITEM: Frank McManus, Scott O’Connor, and Robin Borrelli to work with the AQS Task Group on the issue of audit observations. (Due Date: 25-Oct-2016)
5.0 audit effectiveness
The Task Group Chairs presented the requested Audit Effectiveness data for each group as requested by the sub-team. For further details, please see the attached spreadsheets.
It was suggested by Ralph Kropp that the Task Groups should highlight key spec requirements in the audit handbooks as a best practice.
ACTION ITEM: Jim Lewis & Mark Rechtsteiner to review the submitted audit effectiveness information, track outstanding items to completion, and report back in October 2016. This includes recommendations for the audit handbook to highlight key spec requirements. (Due Date: 25-Oct-2016)
All of this information will be compiled by Jim Lewis and tracked through to completion. If anyone has any additional ideas, please send them to Mark Rechtsteiner and Jim Lewis.
6.0 NMC Standardization Committee
Frank McManus gave a status update on the activities regarding self-audit submittal requirements since the February 2016 meeting, as well as next steps. For further details, please see the attached presentation.
Will the self-audit checklist be visible to anyone other than the auditor during audit review?
ACTION ITEM: Mike Graham to determine whether the submitted self-audit will be available to all parties once this process is implemented. (Due Date: 25-Oct-2016)
7.0 applicability of mro facilities in ac7118
Following the discussion at the February 2016 Planning & Ops meeting, the Composites Task Group has further discussed the topic and decided to change their position on this topic. P&O-51 is now considered closed.
8.0 Definition of main/satellite
Susan Frailey gave an update on the Staff Engineer (SE) SWAT sub-team that was formed as a result of an action from the October 2015 Planning & Ops meeting. This team recommended the Electronics Task Group (ETG) change their minimum scope requirements and break the separate processed into slash sheets, which has since taken place.
