Quality assessment: A performance-based approach to assessments.

摘要

Revision C to US Department of Energy (DOE) Order 5700.6 (6C) ''Quality Assurance'' (QA) brings significant changes to the conduct of QA. The Westinghouse government-owned, contractor-operated (GOCO) sites have updated their quality assurance programs to the requirements and guidance of 6C, and are currently implementing necessary changes. In late 1992, a Westinghouse GOCO team led by the Waste Isolation Division (WID) conducted what is believed to be the first assessment of implementation of a quality assurance program founded on 6C.
