2011Best.-Nr. 80989Los Alamos NM: Department of Energy National Nuclear Security Administration Los Alamos Site Office 2011. Presumed unique compilation. DVD. Very good. CD/DVD Contains LASO WQAP LASO Institutional QAP LASO Functions Responsibilities and Authorities FRAs and LASO Quality Assurance Management Procedures. Quality assurance QA is a way of preventing mistakes and defects in manufactured products and avoiding problems when delivering products or services to customers; which ISO 9000 defines as "part of quality management focused on providing confidence that quality requirements will be fulfilled". This defect prevention in quality assurance differs subtly from defect detection and rejection in quality control and has been referred to as a shift left since it focuses on quality earlier in the process i.e. to the left of a linear process diagram reading left to right. When properly implemented the principles and requirements form a management system to plan perform assess and improve work. The requirements are performance oriented and offer implementation flexibility. The DOE quality management system moves beyond the traditional quality assurance requirements that had become narrowly focused on compliance and inspections. The management system is designed to link with an organization's strategic plan to support mission achievement and the delivery of products and services. The Department's commitment to environment safety and health relies upon work being conducted within an effective management system. DOE line managers and contracting officers must ensure the QA Order and QA Rule are specified in each major contract. The Weapon Quality Assurance FAQS establishes common functional area competency requirements for all National Nuclear Security Administration NNSA Weapon Quality Assurance personnel who provide assistance direction guidance oversight or evaluation of contractor activities that could impact the production maintenance and design of nuclear weapons. The technical FAQS has been developed as a tool to assist NNSA program and field offices in the development and implementation of the TQP in their organization. The NNSA Management System Assessment MSA is an activity sponsored by Quality Management. The assessments are conducted to fulfill Quality Management's responsibilities and cited requirements under DOE O 414.1D Quality Assurance NAP-26 Quality Management System and ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System. MSAs are conducted by trained and certified ISO auditors and involve onsite management system reviews at the NNSA Headquarters HQ facilities in Washington DC Germantown MD Albuquerque NM and the field offices. MSAs are a check at a point in time of an organization's management system to verify whether it is properly implemented maintained and whether mission-related processes are being planned documented executed and subjected to periodic management review. The MSA objective is to strengthen accountability by ensuring that procedures are established and followed. MSAs also enhance risk management resource stewardship and governance across all NNSA federal organizations. These MSAs will be conducted in accordance with an assessment plan and schedule that is developed by the NNSA Management Systems Board MSB. The plan will be approved by the NNSA Management Council. NNSA has developed documented implemented and maintained its Quality Management System QMS to ensure it aligns with select and applicable principles of ISO 9001. With this alignment the NNSA QMS is based upon an approach that: • Identifies the processes needed for the management system; • Determines the sequence and interaction of processes; • Establishes the criteria and methods required to ensure effective operation and management of processes; • Ensures the availability of resources and information necessary to support processes; and • Monitors measures and analyzes processes to achieve planned results and continual improvement.
