Nadcap Process / eAuditNet

3. DEFINITIONS – PRI
PRI:
The Performance Review Institute is a not-for-profit affiliate of SAE whose mission is to: Provide global, unbiased, independent manufacturing process and product assessments and certification services to the mobility industry for the purpose of adding value, reducing total cost and facilitating teaming between primes & suppliers. PRI administers Nadcap.

4. DEFINITIONS – Nadcap
Nadcap:
Special Processes: are those processes where the
parameters are directly influenced by component geometry and/or the results cannot be confirmed by inspection, e.g., NDT, Plating, Heat Treating.
Products: are the manufacturing output of the combination of distinct materials, parts and/or processes which forms a whole, e.g., Composites, Elastomer Seals, Electronics.
The leading worldwide co-operative program
of major companies designed to manage a cost effective consensus approach to special processes and products
and provide continuous improvement within the aerospace
and automotive industries.

5. DEFINITIONS – eAuditNet
Audit software used to document audit results, attachments, letters, notes, schedules audits, supplier advisories, etc. with the ability to produce reports based on multiple criteria.

6. HISTORY OF THE PERFORMANCE REVIEW INSTITUTE (PRI)
November 1985: Government/Industry Equal Partners Conference recommends consensus solution to duplication of supplier quality assurance systems
July 1990: PRI incorporated as a Not-For-Profit Trade Association. Launch Nadcap for Aerospace
July 2000: Roll-out of Nadcap Europe
November 2002: Full Launch of eAuditNet
October 2003: Roll-out of Nadcap Asia
April 2008: Roll-out of eQuaLearn
May 2009: Full Launch of eAuditNet 2.0
