QA Systems Audits are conducted to verify that the QA Program elements of the applicable organization are being implemented in accordance with their approved Quality Assurance Plan or Prograu and that the program is effective.

Internal audits are performed to verify the effectiveness of the QA Program, including implementation at sites and corporate of fices. External audits of Contractor / Vendor QA Programs are conducted at their facilities.

Technical Audits are comprised into three types:

Design Audits, Product Audits, and Process or Activity Audits.

1) Design audits will be conducted to verify that the designer has established an adequate design basis for the particulhr activity being audited and these design bases are being correctly translated into specifications, drawings, procedures and instructions.

Design audits will normally be conducted by personnel technically qualified to identify inadequate or incorrect assumptions, calculations, material selection or other design deficiencies. GPUNC Technical Functions will provide personnel of pertinent disciplines to participate in design audits.

2) Product Audits will be conducted to verify that the QA/QC require-ments of the applicable product specifications have been met.

Thesc audits may be applied to a specific operation or to all documentation 1eading to final acceptance of the product.

3)

Process or Activity Audits are conducted to verify that a selected process or activity is performed in accordance with the applicable QA Program, Regulatory and Cocpany requirements.

1.

Introduction The QA Program Development & Audit Section has the responsibility to perform the preliminary evaluation to determine the potential reportability, under the terms of Parts 20. 21, 50 and 71 and Regulatory Guice 1.16. of nonconformances and deficiencies identified in audit findings. This preliminary evaluation is not a technical engineering evaluation the intent is to assure that potentially reportable occurrences are crougr.t to the attention of responsible organizations and management in a timely manner.

Th1information given below is intended to provide guidance in the performance of this preliminary CA evaluat:c' References are provided to assist the evaluator in making determinations it' difficult cases.
