Noontime Knowledge – Management System Certification Bill of Rights

Webinar • 12:00pm - 1:00pm • Free

No matter what standard your Quality Management System (QMS) is predicated on (ISO 9001, AS 9100, ISO 13485), there is a prescribed set of rules the Certification Body (CB) must follow when auditing your organization.  Have you experienced any of the following?

– Inconsistent audit findings from the CB Lead Assessor
– Lead Assessor’s approach with you or your people does not feel like continuous improvement support
– Arbitrary grading of opportunity for improvement into minors and minors into majors
– A “soft” nonconformance (NCR) is issued; not a NCR, just the threat of it becoming one on the next audit
– NCR not well supported by a system requirement
– Valid, appropriate objective evidence presented doesn’t satisfy the Lead Assessor

If you have witnessed these scenarios or others that have caught your attention when your organization has undergone its audit, then this session may be of value to you.  Please note we will not be recording this webinar.

NOTE: If you are registering for this event after 9:00 am (EST) on Friday, March 20, we will be unable to send you a separate/ manual confirmation that includes the virtual address for entry into the webinar; therefore, at 12 Noon, simply join the event via Zoom here and you will be let into the webinar from the waiting room. Thank you and we look forward to seeing you soon. VMEC’s Phil Chadderdon and Dave Lambertson of Qualitec Consulting LLC will assist you in this hour-long webinar, getting your Management System Certification Bill of Rights in order!
