26、the corresponding ASME products. Comparisons were made of the various corresponding documents of ASME and the Nuclear Quality Standard Association (NQSA). The report discusses the competitive strengths and weaknesses of the NSQ-100 products compared to the corresponding ASME products. Established in
27、 1880, the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) is a professional not-for-profit organization with more than 135,000 members and volunteers promoting the art, science and practice of mechanical and multidisciplinary engineering and allied sciences. ASME develops codes and standards that e
28、nhance public safety, and provides lifelong learning and technical exchange opportunities benefiting the engineering and technology community. Visit www.asme.org for more information. The ASME Standards Technology, LLC (ASME ST-LLC) is a not-for-profit Limited Liability Company, with ASME as the sol
29、e member, formed in 2004 to carry out work related to newly commercialized technology. The ASME ST-LLC mission includes meeting the needs of industry and government by providing new standards-related products and services, which advance the application of emerging and newly commercialized science an
30、d technology and providing the research and technology development needed to establish and maintain the technical relevance of codes and standards. Visit www.stllc.asme.org for more information. STP-NU-061-1: Evaluation of NSQ-100 Nuclear Quality Document viii ABSTRACT This technical report revision
31、 summarizes the assessment that was performed addressing the competitive strengths and weaknesses of NQSA products compared to the corresponding ASME products. The products compared during this assessment were the NSQ-100 document “Nuclear Safety and Quality Management System Requirements”, Revision
32、 0 with an issue date of December 2011 1 and the corresponding ASME Standards; NQA-1 “Quality Assurance Requirements for Nuclear Facility Application Edition 2012” 2 and “ASME Section III Rules for Construction of Nuclear Facility Components-Subsection NCA General Requirements for Division 1 and Div

37、 regulators, standard developing organizations, vendors and suppliers. These concerns ranged from the validity of the document as a standard, how this new standard was to be used, its certification and accreditation activity, and the replacement of existing standards that have formed the basis of a
38、large majority of new nuclear construction and existing nuclear plant replacements globally. This technical report provides the reader with results of an evaluation and assessment of the NSQ-100 “Nuclear Safety and Quality Management System Requirements”. STP-NU-061-1: Evaluation of NSQ-100 Nuclear
39、Quality Document 2 2 NQSA ORGANIZATIONAL SUPPORT STRUCTURE The NSQ-100 document was developed and issued by NQSA, a nonprofit organization jointly launched by AREVA Corporation and Bureau Veritas SA in January 2011 with the stated goal of promoting the application of the NSQ-100 standard and setting
40、 a nuclear oriented supplier evaluation process. The NSQ-100 document was issued as a draft document in June 2011 and a Revision 0 was released in December 2011. AREVA Corporation is a stockholder company, funded in large part by the Commissariat lnergie Nuclaire (CEA) and the French government budg
41、et process, and has global subsidiaries with major centers in France, Germany and North America. Bureau Veritas is an international testing, inspection and certification organization based in Paris, France. The newest member of the NQSA organization is Socit Gnrale de Surveillance (SGS), which is a
42、leading inspection, verification, testing, and certification company based in Geneva, Switzerland with global offices as well. The NQSA organizations website, http:/www.nqsa.org/nsq100-standard/nsq100.html explains its purpose in developing the NSQ-100 document as such: “A new environment generates
43、new needs and calls for a new standard. In 2011, the NQSA (Nuclear Quality Standard Association) open to all major nuclear utilities, nuclear engineers and manufacturers - responded to the nuclear supply chain challenges in terms of quality and safety by creating and promoting a new standard: NSQ-10
44、0”. It goes on to say that the “NSQ-100 is a new standard based upon ISO 9001:2008 and two other major nuclear quality standards IAEA GS-R-3:2006 and ASME NQA-1-2008 (and addenda 2009). NSQ-100 standard is also complemented with a correspondence matrix to GS-R-3 standard called NSQ-110 and eight (8)
45、 application guides. NSQ-100 aims to provide high quality and reduce costs and supply chain delivery time”. STP-NU-061-1: Evaluation of NSQ-100 Nuclear Quality Document 3 3 DIFFERENCES OF STANDARD DEVELOPMENT ORGANIZATIONS The primary difference between the development of the NSQ-100 document from N
46、QSA and its corresponding ASME document NQA-1 is that the two organizations developed their documents from two different viewpoints. The ASME is not funded by, reporting to or a part of any U.S. Governmental Agency. The ASME organization standards development function is a total volunteer-based effo
47、rt. It is a global organization with functional chapters, student associations and industrial partners from over 100 nations, providing the expert knowledge and experience necessary to develop the ASME Codes and Standards over the past 125 years. The NSQ-100 document was developed within the members
48、hip of the NQSA organization. This document was not developed using a broad base of global expert knowledge and experience such as the consensus process used historically in ASMEs document development. The ASME Codes and Standards are developed using a broad base of industrial companies, manufacturi
49、ng and construction companies, regulators, engineering and inspection organizations and private consultants from the global user base. The ASME meetings are open to public involvement and active participation. There are over 500 standards developed by ASME that are being used in over 100 countries and ASME also administers over 40 US Technical Advisory Groups (TAGs) for the ISO development process. In addition to the developing groups, the ASME standards were initially intended to be used by private organizations, including manufacturers
