Issues to note when renewing a pressure vessel manufacturing license

First, go through the system documents; the technical documents are likely to require the most modifications. Establish records for issuance and retrieval

There are a few points to consider. In addition to what was mentioned by the colleague upstairs, it is first necessary to check whether the scope of the license includes any experience in container manufacturing at various levels, especially since products of levels A1, A2, and A3 do not cover each other； There are also outsourcing agreements and qualified supplier evaluations ； Are internal audits and management reviews conducted once every 12 months or annually as required? ； Record of Handling Non-conforming Items ； Procedures for the acceptance of materials upon arrival, the division of the storage area into three zones, labeling of materials and transfer of labels, acceptance of welding materials upon arrival, the division of the primary storage area into three zones, monitoring and recording of temperature and humidity, identification of any expired welding materials, as well as records related to the retrieval, drying, distribution, and recycling of welding materials ； Also, it is necessary to divide into four groups as suggested by the review team: Resources, Quality Assurance System Operation, Product Quality, and Logistics, and assign a leader for each group.

Thank you to the person above; it would be great to have actual examples available, so as to facilitate self-checking or to address the corrective actions suggested at the final meeting of the inspection team.

I need this material too to study it! ! ! ! !

I just participated in an assessment for the renewal of A1, A2, and A3 level licenses; it’s these issues that are particularly important, receive attention, and are recorded in the minutes. Of course, there is also the question of whether records are kept and filled out for the manufacturing process flow cards ； Non-destructive testing techniques and film evaluation will also receive attention. :lol

Are there any essential standards and regulations for the renewal process? Which regulations are essential?
