Standard invoked by a customer to be fully met.

enable identification of the procedures which outline the controls for the
various elements of the Quality Management Systems and together with the
Manual.

personnel change
d) To act as a reference base against which the practices and procedures can be
audited both internally and by customers/certification bodies enabling
corrective action to be taken when non-conformance or inadequacy is found.
Copies of this Manual (Uncontrolled) are readily available to customers for
information purposes. It is however company policy that the detailed
procedures/instructions by which the Quality Management System is
implemented are confidential documents. They are not generally submitted to

These decisions are communicated to the respective departmental heads for
taking necessary corrective actions.
Concerned Departmental Heads take the suggested actions and inform the
results to Functional Head (QA) and the same are verified by the internal
auditors. The records of these results including the actions taken are
discussed in the Management Review Committee Meetings by Management
Representative (QMS).

Customer satisfaction with the organization is also monitored through continual


evaluation of performance of the realization process. Performance indicators are
based on objective data and include, but not be limited to:
- delivered part quality performance
- customer disruptions including field returns,
- delivery schedule performance (including incidents of premium freight), and
Customer notifications related to quality or delivery issues.
The organization monitors the performance of manufacturing processes to

8.2.2 Internal Audit

The Company has established a “Documented Procedure” to ensure that planned


arrangements, requirements of AS 9100C:2009 requirements as established by
company having influence on product requirements are subjected to internal audits
at a pre-determined schedule ( At least once in six months) to verify the compliance
with all aspects of Quality Management Systems Requirements. The procedure
defines the responsibilities and requirements for planning and conducting audits,
and for reporting results in Management Review Meetings including maintaining
records.
The internal audits are planned and coordinated to ensure that entire QMS is
audited at a specified frequency. The procedure defines to establish the audit
criteria, scope, frequency and methods of auditing.

The auditors are selected in a manner to ensure objectivity and impartiality of the
audit process. A schedule for audits, based on the status and importance of the
process and results of earlier non-conformances observed, is prepared and
responsibility assigned to the personnel for conducting the audits. It is ensured
that Auditors do not audit their own work activities. The auditors, during the audit,
apart from verifying the activities by using “Check Lists” for the individual
department, may also verify the results of earlier non-conformances. The audit
reports are documented. The reports of the audits form the basis of taking
suitable corrective and preventive actions by concerned Dept Heads who take the
required corrective action without any undue delay i.e. immediate actions are
started on such non-conformances, which may result into reducing customer
satisfaction level / perception and deviate statutory and regulatory requirements
including desired goals / objectives.

Other non-conformances are prioritized and accordingly actions are started to


avoid their recurrence. Follow-up activities include the verification of the
corrective actions taken either by actual verification at site or by verifying the
related documentation, depending upon the criticality of the non-conformances.

The results of the action taken are reviewed and discussed in Management Review
Meeting.
The audit is carried out for each manufacturing process to determine its
effectiveness and products at appropriate stages of production and delivery to
verify conformity to all specified requirements, such as product dimensions,
functionality, packaging and labeling at a defined frequency.
Internal audits include all quality management related processes, support processes,
environment management system related processes, health and safety related
processes, and are scheduled according to an annual plan. Based on the internal/
external audit results the frequency of the audit is rescheduled and the plan is
revised accordingly.
It is ensured through appropriate training’s that internal auditors who
perform/conduct the audit are qualified to audit the requirements of the
international standards ( AS 9100:2009)

the planned results.

When planned results are not achieved, the non-conforming outputs (products
/ services / information) are corrected (by re-worked / repaired) and the
suitable corrective actions, as applicable as per the “Reaction Plans” are
taken to ensure conformity of the products (outputs).

Monitoring and measurement of manufacturing processes


Process studies on all new manufacturing (including assembly or sequencing)
processes to verify process capability and to provide additional input for
process control is carried out through established methods. The results of
process studies are documented with specifications, where applicable, for
means of production, measurement and test, and maintenance instructions.
These documents includes

objectives for manufacturing process capability reliability, maintainability


and availability, as well as acceptance criteria.
The organization maintains manufacturing process capability or performance
as specified by the customer part approval process requirements.
It is ensured that the control plans and process flow diagrams are
implemented, including adherence to the specified:
- measurement techniques,
- sampling plans,
- acceptance criteria, and

a) by prioritizing the nonconformance, analyzing them and taking


immediate action, based on their criticality, for their elimination;
b) by authorizing its use, release or acceptance under concession by an
company authorized personnel. The process parameters are adjusted
based on evaluation of the non-conforming products / activities at
intermediate stages.
c) by taking action to prelude its original intended use or application,
d) by taking action appropriate top the effects, or potential effects, of
the non conformity when nonconforming product is detected after
delivery or use has started.
- DEFSYS’s nonconforming product control process provides for timely
reporting of delivered nonconforming product.
e) by taking actions necessary to contain the effect of the nonconformity
on other processes or products.
Dispositions of use as is or repair shall only be used after approval by
an authorized representative of the organization responsible for
design.
DEFSYS does not use dispositions of use as is or repair, unless specifically
authorized by the customer, if the non conformity results in a departure
from the contract requirements.

Product dispositions for scrap are conspicuously and permanently marked, or


positively controlled, until physically rendered unusable.

Non-conforming products / activities are duly identified and the products are
kept at designated locations. Such products are reworked / repaired and re-
tested before transferring them to OK storage area.

The records indicating the nature of non-conformities and the subsequent


actions taken for reducing and eliminating them are maintained. The trends
of nonconformance are periodically reviewed for deciding continuous
