2.0Status of action Items from Previous Meeting

AC7108 App B Test Methods: The suppliers are finding it difficult to understand which section in Appendix B should be used for certain tests. Can staff review the sections and add CAG to clearly describe what tests are applicable to a given section of AC7108 App B. Ask for this to be included in the strategic plan and included in the new AC7108/4. CP Task Group to be requested to set up a sub-team to identify additional test methods for inclusion in AC7108/4, e.g. surface roughness, electrical continuity testing. Action: Open, still ongoing

Checklist Strategy: Concern about how audit duration will be addressed for audits with an audit count greater than 5 days. Can feedback be obtained from auditors on audit duration. The issue is actually about selection and number of job audits. The programming in eAuditNet limits any single CP audit to 5 days maximum. Action: Closed – The Task Group is now handling this item.

2014 Auditor Conference: A sub-team was appointed to write a presentation for the change from technical datasheets to a process control document (PCD) but the checklist is not yet amended. Need to reconsider as a training item, can a PCD be considered equivalent to a TDS (auditor advisory). Action: Closed – The Task Group has agreed to drop this training item.

REACH: The CP Task Group has requested the CP-SAT provide their method for compliance with REACH and give some examples. The following people volunteered. (Jerry Wahlin, Mike Noettl, Jim Cummings, Debbie Sykes, Stephane Chaumeil, Steve Simacek) Action: Closed – Presentation written.
