Acceptance Procedure for Receiving Calibrated Equipment & Tools

#11
Did you ever find an example or come up with a procedure?

I'm in the same boat. I got a NADCAP finding because of a calibration cert error that should have been caught at Quality Approval, but certs are being signed and accepted without a complete review. Part of my corrective action is to write a procedure and train on how to review certs.
Are you sure that's the correct action? It sounds like you didn't have any criteria to check them against and the person doing it wasn't competent! Not having a complete review isn't a training issue is it? It sounds like the certs were being processed, so a procedure isn't required is it?

Ooch. The person signing off is my boss! :frust:

I think you are correct in that I need a criteria to check against. I have no hope of being able to teach the old dog (the boss) new tricks, but at least if I have some craieria to check against I can train someone else and provide a CA for NADCAP.

Better still, why not get the page from ISO/IEC 17025 which specifies what should be included in a calibration certificate?
I think that's where I'm going. This would allow me to set up a criteria to check certs against. Unfortunately, I don't have a copy of 17025. I've Googled a few references to it though and I think I've got most of what I need.
