Meeting Summary Ms. Kerri Kavanagh opened Town Hall meeting with brief remarks and introduced the keynote speaker, Mr. Mike King. Mr. Kings remarks covered areas such as the Vendor Inspection Program (VIP), supplier oversight during the COVID-19 pandemic, the role of the vendor, and safety culture. Mr. King discussed the purpose of the VIP and how it provides the regulatory oversight necessary to ensure the integrity, quality, and performance of the materials, components, and services that are relied upon to maintain nuclear safety. Mr. King also spoke of the challenges associated with providing effective oversight of the nuclear supply chain during the COVID-19 pandemic and the collaboration between the NRC staff and industry stakeholders to find novel solutions to these challenges. In addition, Mr. King highlighted the significant role that safety culture plays in the supply chain and the NRCs expectations for suppliers to demonstrate a strong commitment to developing, maintaining, fostering, and improving the safety culture at their facilities. Mr. King closed his remarks by sharing three key messages on (1) how crucial is the need for rigorous vendor oversight to maintaining the integrity of the global supply chain and nuclear safety, (2) the NRC staff and stakeholders working together to achieve a positive outcome, and (3) a positive and strong safety culture promotes quality and trust in the domestic and global supply chain.

Ms. Deanna Zhang, Senior Reactor Operations Engineer, IQVB, delivered a presentation titled Design Control: Importance of Adherence to the Requirements in the Procurement Specifications (ADAMS Accession No. ML21160A241). Ms. Zhang started her presentation by describing the requirements from Criterion III, Design Control, and Criterion IV, Procurement Document Control, in Appendix B, Quality Assurance Program Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants and Fuel Reprocessing Plants, to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 50, Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities. Ms. Zhang (1) explained the licensees responsibilities concerning the requirements that may be imposed in the procurement specifications such as codes, standards, and other technical requirements; (2) clarified that a suppliers issuance of a Certificate of Compliance (CoC) to the requirements in a procurement specification may be included as a requirement in the purchase orders (POs); and (3) provided a few examples of recent NRC inspection findings and observations related to CoCs not clearly stating what requirements within the applicable standards were met and how compliance to standards imposed by licensees POs did not get passed down to the sub-suppliers. Ms. Zhang concluded her presentation by reminding suppliers of their responsibilities for verifying the requirements from a licensees POs when supplying a safety-related structure, system or component.

Mr. Jonathan Ortega-Luciano, Reactor Operations Engineer, IQVB, delivered a presentation titled Regulatory Alternatives for Supplier Oversight During Exigent Conditions (ADAMS Accession No. ML21160A245). Mr. Ortega-Luciano started his presentation by providing a description of some of the actions the NRC staff, along with industry stakeholders (e.g. Nuclear Energy Institute, Electric Power Research Institute, licensees, suppliers, etc.) have taken to address what alternatives are currently available to licensees and suppliers for conducting external audits and commercial-grade surveys during exigent conditions. Mr. Ortega-Luciano highlighted four methods currently available to licensees and suppliers: (1) procuring from an alternate source; (2) performing commercial-grade dedication; (3) hybrid method; and (4) a provisional procurement authorization in conjunction with the corrective action program. Mr.

Ortega-Luciano proceeded to briefly describe three regulatory alternatives for use during exigent conditions currently approved by the NRC through safety evaluation reports: (1) overall extension of 25% for triennial audit and commercial-grade survey frequency; (2) remote source verification; and (3) provisional and fully remote assessments.

Mr. Yamir Diaz-Castillo, Reactor Operations Engineer, IQVB, delivered a presentation titled NRCs Updated Recognition of the ILAC Accreditation Process (ADAMS Accession No. ML21160A247). Mr. Diaz-Castillo covered the NRCs updated recognition of the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperations (ILAC) accreditation process documented in the NRCs safety evaluation report dated November 23, 2020 (ADAMS Accession No. ML20322A019). Mr.

Diaz-Castillo: (1) discussed the limitations associated with the use of the ILAC accreditation process; (2) provided clarification on the requirement for documenting a technical evaluation when using the ILAC accreditation process, and (3) described the two new conditions necessary when implementing the ILAC accreditation process. Mr. Diaz-Castillo concluded his presentation by clarifying that for licensees, the use of the International Organization for Standardization/International Electrotechnical Commission (ISO/IEC) standard No. 17025:2017, General Requirements for the Competence of Testing and Calibration Laboratories, as part of the ILAC accreditation process represents a quality assurance (QA) alternative to a previously accepted QA program. As such, licensees may adopt the QA alternative of using ISO/IEC 17025:2017 provided that the bases of the NRCs approval are applicable to the licensees facility pursuant to the requirements of 10 CFR 50.54(a)(3)(ii).

Mr. Diaz-Castillos presentation was followed by two Q&A sessions to allow the participants to ask questions to the NRC staff. The NRC staff answered several questions on a variety of topics related to QA during the two Q&A sessions. The NRC would like to provide more information regarding a question received during the meeting on whether remote assessments can be performed for reactivating a supplier no longer on the Approved Suppliers List. Please refer to Attachment A for the NRCs answer to this question.

In summary, the Town Hall meeting provided an opportunity to our stakeholders in the nuclear supply chain to engage directly with the NRC staff to discuss regulatory and technical issues of interest to them.

NRC Town Hall Meeting on Vendor Oversight June 24, 2021 During the Vendor Town Hall meeting conducted on June 24, 2021, a question was asked regarding the NRC staffs position on the applicability of using the remote audit options for the reactivation of suppliers no longer on a licensees or vendors approved supplier list (ASL).

Specific guidance on reactivating suppliers no longer on the ASL was not provided. A safety evaluation approved implementing the guidance found in Electric Power Research Institutes (EPRIs) Technical Report (TR) No. 3002020796, Remote Assessment Techniques: Planning and Conducting Audits and Surveys Using Remote Techniques During Exigent Conditions, for performing hybrid remote, fully remote, and provisional remote assessments (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML21159A126). The EPRI TR No. 3002020796 was developed with industry stakeholders, that included NRC staff, to provide the option within a licensees or vendors quality assurance program for remote performance when a supplier assessment is required. The proposed change provides guidance for the application of video and other real-time communication technologies for the successful performance of remote supplier assessments. This response provides the NRC staffs position on what guidance should be implemented to ensure a reactivated vendor has been properly vetted.

The regulatory position 4.b.(4), in Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.28, Quality Assurance Program Criteria (Design and Construction), states the following:

The applicant or licensee should perform or arrange for annual evaluations of suppliers. It should document these evaluations and take the following considerations into account, where applicable:

(a) the review of supplier-furnished documents and records such as certificates of conformance, nonconformance notices, and corrective actions; (b) results of previous source verifications, audits, and receiving inspections; and (c) operating experience of identical or similar products furnished by the same supplier and results of audits from other sources (e.g., Nuclear Procurement Issues Committee audit reports or NRC inspection reports).

RG 1.28 endorses, with certain clarifications and regulatory positions, the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) NQA-1-2015, Quality Assurance Requirements for Nuclear Facility Applications. Requirement 7 of NQA-1, Control of Purchased Items and Services, Paragraph 200, Supplier Evaluation and Selection, states:

Prior to award of a contract, the Purchaser shall evaluate the Suppliers capability to provide items or services in accordance with the requirements of the procurement documents. Supplier evaluation and selection and the results therefrom shall be documented and shall include one or more of the following:

(a) Suppliers history of providing an identical or similar product that performs satisfactorily in actual use. The Suppliers history shall reflect current capability.

(b) Suppliers current quality records supported by documented qualitative and quantitative information that can be objectively evaluated.

(c) Suppliers technical and quality capability as determined by a direct evaluation of the facilities, personnel, and the implementation of the Suppliers quality assurance program.

A licensee is responsible for ensuring that appropriate consideration is given to a suppliers previous historical performance. This historical performance may include, but not limited to experience of other applicants and licensees, their previous experience with a vendor, or relevant nonnuclear industry experience. The considered experience should be relevant to the intended end-use of the item or service. If the historical performance is outdated or not pertinent, then a licensee should not consider the use of a remote assessment. Historical performance may be considered outdated if the QA program or process controls have been modified, regardless of the time since the changes were implemented. The licensee should document this evaluation and provide adequate justification.

The applicant or licensee must determine the scope of the audit to ensure the suppliers capabilities can adequately provide the necessary item or service. This determination is guided by the EPRI TR No. 3002020796 for performing fully remote and provisional remote assessments. The EPRI TR No. 3002020796 was developed with industry stakeholders, that included NRC staff, to provide the option within a licensees QA program for remote performance when a vendor assessment is required. The proposed change provides guidance for the application of video and other real-time communication technologies for the successful performance of remote vendor assessments. The proposed use of this method of vendor assessments will only be applicable when a pandemic or similar state of emergency has been declared restricting access or travel to and/or from those locations affected by the declaration.

The NRC staff has determined that the existing regulatory requirements provide adequate assurance that the assessment for current and reactivated suppliers ensure sufficient controls are in place for determining a supplier can provide an item or service. Additionally, the added controls provided by the EPRI TR No. 3002020796, if justified, are sufficient to provide licensees adequate tools for the proper conduct of a remote audit.
