Detect reporting

Internal Audits provide assurances that the: (4)

EO's designs and engineering practices comply with internal and external requirements


EMS is documented in the EO's designs and procedures


EMS is effectively implemented, maintained and followed


EMS is audited with appropriate periodicity (e.g. at least within a two year cycle)

Internal Audits should result in a written report detailing: (3)

Non-conformances


Corrective and preventative actions


Opportunities for improvement

External Audits should produce a report on: (4)

Scope of external compliance monitoring activity


Findings of external compliance monitoring activity


Corrective actions required (Corrective Action Request (CAR))


Reporting timelines

CAR

Corrective Action Request

External Auditing requires

Management of EO to provide unrestricted access to organisational EMS documentation and data to the compliance authority

Management's response to Audits

Should formally acknowledge the report and accept or reject any recommendations made


Should implement corrective action to eliminate the non-conformances and prevent its reoccurence within the timeframe specified in the CAR

If corrective action is not performed within the time frame of CAR,

Management should develop and submit to the auditing organisation for endorsement

An Endorsement is a management plan that details (2)
How the non conformance and any associated risk will be managed until rectification
How the non conformance will be eliminated with documented milestones and dates identified

Key Appointment

SDE who may be externally endorsed by an accrediting body


Deputy Chief Engineer


Design Engineers


Technical officers/Technicians

Assessment of matching jobs to individuals involves assessing: (2)
Technical qualifications and competencies required for the job
Technical qualifications, competencies experience and knowledge of relevant material systems of individuals

Tasks Requiring Technical Authority: (9)

Provision of technical advice


Judgement of significance


Conduct of design in accordance with EO's approved design process


Design approval/acceptance


Approval of variations to maintenance, procedures, techniques or requirements of design


Technical maintenance


Conduct of technical assessments


Assignment of TA within EO


Tasks or activities directed by system specific instructions

JOS

Judgement of Significance

Judgement of Significance (JOS) (3)

An assessment of the technical risk introduced by implementation of design or design change


Takes into consideration probability and consequence of partial performance or failure of design or design change


Completed JOS provides a determination that the design or design change is significant or non significant
