NMC Metrics Sub-Team Meeting Minutes

Subject of Meeting: NMC Metrics Sub-Team update 22Jan07

Date / January 29, 2007
Item / Minutes
1.0 / Begin Meeting /Roll Call
The meeting was called to order. Those in attendance are marked with an “X” next to their name on page 1.
2.0 / Review Board Of Director’s Metrics
The attached Board of Director (BoD) Metrics were reviewed. The team agreed that the Critical Operational Health Indicators were: Merit, Cycle Time, Audits Over 120 Days, Failed Audits/Level 2&3 Advisories and On-Time Accreditations. The team is planning to discontinue the First Pass Yield metric; however, we will continue this metric until the Board of Directors accepts the proposal at the April BoD meeting. One contributing factor to poor First Pass Yield is failure to attach objective evidence. John Barrett will request that the Standardization Team look into standardizing the objective evidence requirements for major and minor findings for initial and reaccreditation audits.

3.0 / Review Action Item List
The attached Action Item list was reviewed and updated. Glenn reported on the: Suppliers not on merit, Audits open over 120 days, Failure policy communiqué, and 120 day control chart action items (attached in Action Item list).

4.0 / Days to have a Follow-Up Audit Conducted
The attached analysis was reviewed to determine an appropriate amount of time that should be proposed for Follow-Up audits to be conducted and closed. During the review it became apparent that a Follow-Up audit is not clearly defined. Glenn will develop and propose a definition for Follow-Up audits. A pareto of the causes for the 102 Follow-Up audits that were included in the analysis will be used to help with the definition. Arshad reported that PRI is currently piloting an informal process to have Follow-Up audits conducted and closed within 30 days from the time that it is determined that a Follow-Up audit is required. Data will be reviewed after six months to determine the impact of the definition and the pilot.

5.0 / Level #2 and #3 Supplier Advisory Report
The attached chart was reviewed as method of reporting Level #2 and #3 Supplier Advisories. Glenn will make the following revisions:
1.  Reverse Level #2 and #3 order on charts
2.  Change color of “Open” and “Closed” on the charts from red to another color that is more visible from a distance
3.  Add Cycle Time to Close Level #2 and #3 Supplier Advisories
4.  Add "What is the root cause of increase in advisories" as a goal for this metric
This metric will not be added to the BoD metrics until the proposal is accepted by the BoD at the April 2007 BoD’s meeting.

6.0 / Review New Action Items
New Action Items were reviewed. Those names in bold have action items.
7.0 / Other Topics
Task Group Review Time
Arshad will present a proposal at the April meeting regarding the amount of time that the task groups have to approve an audit.
Supplier Advisory Increase
Debra Harrison requested that the team investigate the increase in the number Level #2 and #3 supplier advisories. Glenn will analyze the root cause of the Level 2 and Level 3 Supplier Advisories to determine what is driving the increase in number (program growth, increased escapes, ….)
8.0 / Close Meeting
