2. FY 2017 Laboratory Audits
We will continue to use QSM, Revision 5.0 as the basis for the FY2017 Audits
We will also use the Errata Document, Revision 2 for implementation of necessary requirements and deviations from QSM 5.0

3. Phased Audits
We will continue with Phased Audits as a means to minimize travel dollars
Laboratories that have performed well with no significant issues will be good candidates for the Phased Audits

4. Implementation Schedule QSM 5.1
DOECAP will incorporate the updates and will use QSM 5.1 for the FY18 audits
To be able to meet the implementation schedule, the majority of the checklists will require revision and update
Budgeting permitting we will begin the checklist revision in early FY2017
The revision process will require everyone’s help

5. Beyond FY17
There are number of requirement documents that will require major revision or harmonization of the QSM
TNI ELV1-2016, Rev 2.0 Management and Technical Requirements for Laboratories Performing Environmental Analysis has been approved and will be implemented by 2018
TNI Standard ELV1M6 Quality Systems for Radiochemical Testing has been approved and will be implemented
ISO/IEC General Requirements for the Competence of Testing and Calibration Laboratories is being revised

6. The Future of Laboratory Audits
It is going to be a wild ride into the future!
