'1.0 SCOPE This Section of the Manual describes the system of control which assures that items purchased by the Ebasco Engineering Office are supplied in accordance with the requirements of the applicable procurement documents. The system of control is implemented through a combination of activities of Vendor Quality Assurance Representatives and Quality Assurance Engineering. These organiza-tions, which are described in this Section provide surveillance over the sup-plier from the issuance of a purchase contract through shipment of the item.

2.0 RESPONSIBILITIES T

2.1 Responsibilities for the administration of the Vendor Quality Assurance Representation Program rest with the Chief Vendor Quality Assurance Representative (CVQAR). The CVQAR or his designated represen-tative assigns Vendor Quality Assurance Representatives (VQARs) to each R2 Purchase Contract according to the particular area of expertise required 3'[' O T.

(electrical, mechanical, etc.) and assures that the Vendor Quality Assur-ance Representative is adequately trained and indoctrinated.

'~

i 2.2 The Vendor Quality Assurance Representatives are responsible for the implementation of the requirements of the Vendor Quality Assurance Representation Program for the particular purchase order. Their specific responsibilities are defined in approved written procedures and instructions.

These procedures and instructions address the following, as applicable:

R2 Witness inspections and special processes, including mandatory a.

hold points.

b.
