Criteria qualification

In this text, partnerships include alliances. Some companies prefer the alternate name. Partnerships are structured in many different ways. They may be project specific, commodity specific, or even company specific. Each company has its own qualification criteria. It is beyond the scope ol this book to go into detail on these because that is material for a text of its own. The intent here is to introduce the reader to the concept if it is not known and meld in the negotiarion modifiers for both neophyte and veteran...

It is important that the outside service company meet the facility pre-qualification criteria. As part of the selection process, it must be determined if the service company is knowledgeable and experienced in the types of fire protection systems they will be designing, installing, or maintaining.

Currently, there are no published recommendations for the validation of Nab bioassays however, Gupta et al. [15] described assay qualification criteria similar to those proposed by Mire-Sluis et al. [14] for optimization/validation of ADA assays.

Besides an understanding of the basic failure modes and mechanisms, important in the initial selection of adhesives, qualification and strict adherence to materials and processes specifications and work instructions are an integral part of the rehability process. The process begins with the design guidelines and requirements for a specific application. Qualification criteria and test specifications must then be generated and the adhesives selected must be qualified. In addition, materials specifications or... 

The objective of this paper is to provide ( as an example) a set of staggered criteria for the qualification of pre-developed software to be used in different categories for safety critical I C. These qualification criteria appear in the form of requirements for the application of methods and measures in the different safety categories. The three safety categories are those from lEC 61226. 

Table 2 Qualification Criteria Independent of Safety Categories...

Table 3 shows the category A first level qualification criteria. First level in this context means, that these are principal criteria, which must be detailed in subsequent levels. 

As an example for a subsequent level, the second level qualification criteria for criterion A 1 (suitability assurance) are given in table SI. Table S 2 gives the second level criteria of a part (namely the quality assurance part) of first level criterion A 2 (product assurance). The second part would be a table for V V, which has not been included, as only the principle of the qualification process is shown in this paper. For the same reason, also the further details of the first level criteria documentation, product safety, system safety, interface, compensation by operating experience, error reporting, and modification are not elaborated. Thus the GOTO. .. and other references in the description part of the tables, which are the pointers to the more detailed criteria are in most cases empty. 

Table 3 Category A, first level qualification criteria...

Whereas pre-developed software will be exeeptional in eategory A, because of the stringent requirements on product, process and their documentation, this type of software will be found more fiequently in category B and C. The proposed relaxations of qualification criteria in category B against category A are mainly the reduced amount of documentation required and a weaker process of product assurance. Table 4 shows the first level qualification criteria for category B. 

From the first level qualification criteria pointers (GOTO) are leading to a set of second level qualification criteria, which are more detailed requirements than the first level ones. 

The second level qualification criteria are not grouped according to safety categories they should be regarded as a pool of requirements which are accessed from the first level. In many cases first level C criteria point to a smaller set of second level criteria than first level B criteria, and the same holds for the relationship between B and A first level criteria. 

The following tables with second level qualification criteria are not meant to be exhaustive criteria with this grade of detail may in many cases be project specific. 

The tables with second level qualification criteria are denoted with S . Table S 1 contains criteria for a suitability analysis. 

Thus it can bee seen that each prestressed structure must be evaluated to determine the feasibility of cathodic protection current reaching the steel that needs protection, whether galvanic cathodic protection can be applied and if not using qualification criteria such as those in NACE 01102 (2002) to determine if the structure is suitable for impressed current cathodic protection. 

Other features require that the operator enable employee participation in mitigating or eliminating hazards, a feature missing from API s RP 75, and ensure that all employees have the right to report safety or environmental violations or unsafe work conditions to BSEE and request BSEE inspection. SEMS II also requires that operators specify one person on each facility who has Ultimate Work Authority for operational safety. Finally it requires enhanced training programs and audits of SEMS programs conducted by independent third parties who meet specified qualification criteria.

The first step in pre-qualification is defining fhe selection criteria. For this case study, we have used the following 14 pre-qualification criteria as an illustration. The pre-qualification criteria have been split into various categories, such as organizational criteria, experience criteria, etc. The various pre-qualification criteria are described in the following ... 

An SQAS assessment of a road hauler is carried out by an assessor of an ISO 9000/ 14000 certifying body. The list of qualified assessors from several certification bodies is regularly updated. Although this list should not be considered as a formal accreditation, it is highly recommended that haulers select an assessor from this list and verify that they effectively comply with the qualification criteria mentioned in this list. 

The demands depicted in figure 4 could be used in developing training courses and qualification criteria for recruitment of new personnel. Also the demands and traits of YTO s culture that were conceptualised in this research can be used in planning further development projects at YTO. Additionally, the model of conflicting demands could serve as a basis for further research at other regulatory authorities.
