4. Results of audits Open audits With no Corrective Action:
During Audit it was noticed the Final Assembly Area has no area/container identifying rejects that are found during test process. Observed in Electronics' Area was shelves with product haphazardly placed no trays. A pallet with suspect packaged material in middle of work area without identifiable paperwork or labels. Noticed in all mentioned Areas poor identifiable labeling technique on product throughout various stages in process and location. In Shipping area observed also were boxes on floor without any label or identifying paperwork. This was corrected during audit.
Observation : Certain records have been transferred from hard paper copies to electronic media. Quality record matrix has not been updated. Could not find any evidence that prototype feedback form was being used . Doc. W recommend if not being used update matrix.
During interview asked to show record of W First Article /laylot Request. Interview concluded that this form was not being used in the process. Recommend that if this form is not being used to be dropped from Quality Record Matrix.

5. 7.4 Purchasing
Finding: No records of evaluation on Suppliers that have a “Grandfathered” status. Procedure W rev. D States in (Step # 2, bullets 1 and 2) Short form will be used for minor level of procurement needed – bullet 2 states- the detailed form will be used for major levels of procurement
Finding: No criteria in place for the re-evaluation of suppliers.
Comments: Currently only tracking top dollar suppliers.
Finding: No Records of evaluation of suppliers of Unisys product.
Finding: No evidence or records available that subcontractors performing calibration of inspection, test and measuring equipment affecting product quality have been approved for the performance of this service.
Observation: No formal process in place to issue supplier corrective action or how to preclude the use of disapproved suppliers

6. 7.4 continued
Requirement 4.1 General Requirements: and Purchasing Information (see above) Where an organization chooses to outsource any process that affects product conformity with requirements, the organization shall ensure control over such processes. Control of such outsourced processes shall be identified within the quality management system.
Finding: Methods of control for any outsourced processes such as embossing or calibration need to be identified in the quality manual (see 4.2.2) or other documentation such as purchasing information.

7. 7.4 continued Requirement 7.4.2 Purchasing Information
Purchasing information shall describe the product to be purchased, including where appropriate
a) requirements for approval of product, procedures, processes and equipment,
b) requirements for qualification of personnel, and
c) quality management system requirements.
Finding: No evidence that adequate information covering these requirements is being flowed down to suppliers of calibration services, especially in regards to ISO a) requirement “Where necessary ensure valid results, measuring equipment shall…
a) be calibrated or verified at specified intervals, or prior to use, against measurement standards traceable to international or national measurement standards; where no such standards exist, the basis used for calibration or verification shall be recorded;.” No evidence that requirements are flowed down to calibration supplier to allow compliance to requiring calibration “…against certified equipment having a known valid relationship to internationally or nationally recognized standards.”

8. Closed Findings…. Customer satisfaction survey is not being utilized.
1) No project timeline is established to track progress of new/revised design as specified in procedure W ) Product Specification Form is not used all the time as specified in the same procedure 3) Prototype feedback report is not used as described in procedure W
The electronic file for Customer Communication is not kept up to date.
1) Current procedure and practice do not clearly define who is required to approve what kind of document. 2) Documents of external origin are not being controlled
Observations: 1) An update to the Quality Policy could provide a more meaningful statement. 2) Lack of any formal Preventive Actions indicates a 'reactive' rather than 'proactive' organization.
Under section 4.1.b the sequence of interactions was not documented; Under section 4.1.f there was no documented improvement plans; Under c there was no document for preventive actions, Under section c the quality manual did not describe the interaction between the processes of the quality management system

9. Internal Audit Summary
Need process approach
Corrective Actions need to be issued via the CAR System
Not all audit findings are clear or valid
Need a Gap of the 94’ vs standard
Robust follow up process
