4. THE QUALITY ASSURANCE. THE QUALITY SYSTEM MANAGEMENT The quality system documents were implemented in the structure of S.C. INAR S.A.

laboratory at early beging of 1995 year. The reference documents of quality system were the series EN 45 000 standards. We followed the quality assurace methods on the bases of these reference documents ( EN 45 000) untill present time. Now, we have renewed quality system documents elaborated on the bases of reference documents EN ISO 17025/2005 Standard. The politics regarding the quality assurence is poited out in the „THE MANAGEMENT DECLARATION AND THE QUALITY OBJECTIVES”.

The strategy, elaboreted by the S.C. INAR S.A management staff, pursues: increase the laboratories competence, permanent improvement the quality of

testing’s and earning new customers; respect the requirements of international standards and rules, responding the

quality of products and services; accomplish the expectation and maintain the reliability of customers, responding

the tests, and and maintain these; reduce the costs and increase the efficiency of activites; accomplish the reguirements of the accreditation organism and obtain the

accreditation of laboratory for certain testing; To carry out these objectives, the S.C. INAR S.A management pursues permamenty

the follwing actions:

12

implement the international standards, spec rules and acreditation organism requirements in the laboratory activities.;

accord the laboratory „Quality System” with requirements of SR EN ISO 17025/2005 Standard, organizing properly the laboratory and forsinght material and human resources to accomplish the estabilshed goals;

estabilish the responsibilities and authorities of personnel who are leading, performing, and cheking the laboratory activities, these are conducting to assure the quality;

assure the fairness, independence and integrity of laboratory personnel; analyse periodicaly the personnel performances and issue the „Training Program”

the „Retraining Program”,and permanently pursuing the equipment state, to maintain the performances and the measuring trassability.

In annex 1 is ilustrated the organizing structure in respect with „THE MANAGEMENT DECLARATION AND THE QUALITY OBJECTIVES”.

In present quality system and laboratory testing „Techical Procedures” are evalated by RAR - OCP (ROMANIAN AUTOMOTIVE REGISTER / PRODUCT CERTIFICATION ORGANISM).

Today, the quality system documents are elaborated on the bases of reference document EN ISO 17025/2005.

The acoustical and ambiental vibration testing are in the latest stages of accreditation by „RENAR – ROMANIAN NATIONAL ACCREDITATION ORGANIZATION ” In near future are following the accreditation of other S.C. INAR S.A. activities.
