Within the European Environment, the Role of Quality Assurance and Quality Control is quite specific and for QA the keywords are “Compliance” and “Independence” for QC the keywords are Maintaining “Production Quality to a Standard”.
Within EASA where we have specific roles and responsibilities (Including Independent Compliance Manager (CM) and a clear understanding of who is managing each business objective, whilst still ultimately identifying the responsibility of the nominated persons.

Consider is that the primary objective of the EASA system is to demonstrate compliance (with little focus on other quality related aspects or elements, for example, the “performance of the system”).

Organizational Compliance

When we speak about Organizational Compliance we are talking about compliance with all external regulatory requirements together with all the internal obligations driven by all internal company documentation, manuals and procedures.

The CM heads up the independent process for performing a gap analysis (auditing for conformity) of the organizations documentation systems and processes.
Any finding becomes a “discrepancy” and generates the need for “corrective action”.

The presentation will consider how the organisation can maximise the Return on Investment (ROI) – related to the role of Compliance Manager / Quality Assurance Manager.
