I am sure other OASIS registered members have received the following email:
To: ICOP Accreditation Bodies and Certification Bodies
From: Rick Downs
The message below is going out to all individuals that have taken the AATT course. We wanted to make you aware of this guidance module as it will help clarify many questions regarding the completion of PEARs and NCRs resulting from certification audits for 9100/9110/9120:2009.
Thank you,

The International Aerospace Quality Group (IAQG) is proud to announce the launch of the IAQG 9101 Process Effectiveness Assessment Report (PEAR) and Nonconformance Record (NCR) Review module. This module will be offered free of charge to all current and future IAQG Platform users who paid or will pay for the 9100 Online Component. It is available to English Platform users at this time. To access the module, please go to www.iaqgtraining.com and login with your email and password. You will find the module listed directly on the main screen after you login.
In an effort to improve the overall effectiveness of 9101 audit reporting, the IAQG formed an IAQG Other Party Management Team (OPMT) Audit Report Review Sub-Team. The team was tasked with reviewing completed 9101:2009 audit reports and providing feedback to stakeholders in the ICOP process.
The PEARs and NCRs provided in the online training module are actual PEARs and NCRs that were previously uploaded into the OASIS (Online Aerospace Supplier Information System) database, although references to the actual suppliers and auditors have been removed. The PEARs and NCRs have been reviewed by the IAQG OPMT Audit Report Review Sub-Team in conjunction with the 9101 Sector Document Representatives (SDRs) and the IAQG Document Representative (IDR).
The comments and recommendations were developed and reviewed by the Sub-Team, Sector Document Representatives (SDRs) and International Document Representative (IDR) for 9101 in order to provide clear, sanctioned feedback to ICOP stakeholders. It is important to note, that in most cases, the Sub-Team is not stating the PEAR is incorrect but rather it can be improved. However, it is clear the information recorded, in some examples, is simply insufficient and does not meet the intent of the 9101 standard. Included in the online training module are examples of what would be considered a best practice in completing the PEAR and NCRs.
