Supplier AssessmentsPurpose and Scope

• Purpose:– Assess conformance with requirements and monitor improvements

to better enable the realization of quality products and services for NASA mission projects

• Scope includes the Supplier’s implementation of:– NASA contractual requirements, including risk management and

systems safety– Quality Management Standards (IS0 9001:2000 or AS9100,Rev.B)– Internal processes / procedures supporting the fulfillment of

requirements – Government-Industry Data Exchange Program (GIDEP) Alerts– Industrial Safety

• Each assessment is tailored (per Assessment Plan) to address applicable requirements, past findings and any NASA project management concerns

Assessment ApproachHighlights

• Assessments conducted by an expert team under GSFC Supply Chain Management leadership

• Open communication and coordination before, during and after

• Assessment Plan provided in advance for feedback / revision

• Daily debriefs and Assessment Out-Brief• Open door for communication of concerns throughout the

assessment process• Feedback welcomed! -- Supplier Assessment Team Evaluation

Form• Focused on conformance with requirements, strengths

(positive comments and commendations), and areas for improvement (non-compliances and observations)

Assessment ApproachHighlights - continued

• Assessment method employs sampling, objective evidence and professional judgment

• Coordination / collaboration with GSFC project management, other NASA centers and agencies (e.g., DCMA) and with company’s customers as appropriate

• GSFC works closely with suppliers to address assessment results and close Corrective Actions• Assessment Report with documented findings provided for

comment/response• Corrective action responses reviewed• Onsite (“eyes-on”) verification usually conducted

NASA / Industry Teamwork = Mission Success!

Assessment Reporting

• Assessment team documents non-compliances, observations and commendations during the course of the assessment

Critical Noncompliance: Failure to fulfill or comply with requirements that could have serious safety and mission consequences (e.g., loss of life, serious injury to personnel, damage to high-value property, defective mission-critical product)

Noncompliance: Failure to fulfill or comply with requirements Observation: A condition or process that conforms with requirements, but warrants

improvement based on industry practicesCommendation: A condition or process that is considered an industry benchmark

• Daily debrief with informal discussion of the day’s activities and plans for the next day

• Out-Brief with any draft non-compliances, observations or commendations presented at the conclusion of the assessment

• Assessment Report provided for Supplier comment/response• Corrective Action responses and verification reported/shared

within NASA

• Assessments support the portfolio of mission projects managed by GSFC, examining suppliers at multiple tiers of the projects’ supply chains

• Conducted 38 assessments (full & follow-up) in 2007; 39 assessments completed/scheduled in 2008• In 2009 …. ramping-up assessments to include more

lower tier suppliers• Summary trend data from assessments

available to suppliers for benchmarking analysis.
