NADCAP Process.
¿Qué es Nadcap?
Nadcap (anteriormente NADCAP, de “National Aerospace and Defense Contractors Accreditation
Program”): es el mayor programa cooperativo mundial que las compañías líderes designaron para
administrar de manera concensada el manejo de los procesos especiales y productos para proveer
una mejora continuada dentro de las industrias Aeroespacial y Automotriz.
Este se encuentra administrado por el Performance Review Institute (PRI), únicamente. Las
oficinas centrales se encuentran en Pittsburgh, Pensilvania, Estados Unidos y tiene oficinas de
representación oficial en; Europa en Londres, Inglaterra y en Asia en Beijín, China y Aichi, Japón.
www.pri-network.org/Nadcap
Historia de Nadcap
El programa de Nadcap como parte de “Performance Review Institute” (PRI) fue creado en 1990
por la Sociedad de Ingenieros Automotrices. La membresía de Nadcap de “Prime Contractors”
convoca la coordinación a lo ancho de la industria estándares para los procesos especiales y
productos. A través del “Performance Review Institute”, Nadcap provee certificación
independiente de los procesos de manufactura para la industria.
Los siguientes procesos especiales, productos y/o servicios en la industria aeroespacial comercial y
militar requieren acreditación Nadcap
Cada uno de los programas de Nadcap mencionados incluye sub-programas. Por ejemplo
Tratamiento Térmico (HT) tiene al menos 10 familias de aleaciones, 16 procesos y 3 servicios.
Bajo estos programas, un proveedor de un producto, proceso y/o servicio acreditado esta
autorizado por Nadcap a usar la marca del programa (como marca de conformidad) y a emitir un
certificado que indica que el producto, proceso o servicio acreditado esta en cumplimiento con los
estándares y/o especificaciones aplicables.
La certificación de Nadcap / NUCAP para productos, procesos y/o servicios es provista por PRI
(“Performance Review Institute” www.pri-network.org/Nadcap ) únicamente.
Implementación de Nadcap
Existen dos razones principales para buscar la acreditación. La razón más obvia es que la industria
(los clientes) está haciendo esta acreditación obligatoria para hacer negocios. La segunda razón es
porque los diferentes estándares asegurarán que una base concensada de las mejores prácticas
sean implementadas para incrementar la calidad de los productos, procesos y/o servicios. AS9100
/ ISO9001 únicamente prescriben requerimientos generales para la administración del negocio.
Nadcap va más lejos para asegurar la calidad de un área específica de su negocio basada en
metodologías detalladas y probadas.
Consultoría Empresarial provee un camino paso a paso para su acreditación. Típicamente el primer
paso es la implementación de AS9100 o AC7004 (Sistema de Gestión de Calidad para la Industria
Aeroespacial). CE se especializa en la integración de estos requerimientos con entrenamientos
claros, consultoría, desarrollo de documentación e implementación.
CE provee asistencia para cada uno de los programas de Nadcap, la cual incluye: análisis de
brecha, desarrollo de proceso, entrenamiento, implementación y auditoria de preparación.
El plan de Consultoría Empresarial para la acreditación de Nadcap lo pondrá en el camino al éxito.
Al contratar CE, usted se está asegurando que su sistema de Nadcap sea implementado bien a la
primera vez con expertos en la industria. CE expeditará su preparación para la acreditación y
minimizará las interrupciones internas del negocio con nuestra perspectiva de involucramiento
directo.
Seminario Nadcap
Consultoría Empresarial ofrece un seminario de un día en su empresa para una introducción básica
de los estándares de Nadcap, un diagrama de flujo a la acreditación, guía de implementación paso
a paso, recomendaciones para el éxito y recursos. Este seminario es diseñado para principiantes y
aquellos a la mitad del camino de la implementación.
ABOUT Nadcap
Nadcap is an unprecedented cooperative industry effort to improve quality, while reducing
costs, for quality assurance throughout the aerospace and defense industries
WHY Nadcap?
Nadcap is an industry-managed approach to conformity assessment that brings together
technical experts from both Industry and Government to establish requirements for
accreditation, accredit Suppliers and define operational program requirements. This results
in a standardized approach to quality assurance and a reduction in redundant auditing
throughout the aerospace industry because Prime contractors, Suppliers and Government
representatives have joined forces to develop a program that:
• Establishes stringent industry consensus standards that satisfy the requirements of
all participants
• Replaces routine auditing of suppliers with one approved through a consensus
decision-making process of members from the user community
• Conducts more in-depth, technically superior special process audits
• Improves supplier quality throughout industry through stringent requirements
• Reduces costs through improved standardization
• Utilizes technically expert auditors to assure process familiarity
• Provides more frequent audits for Primes, fewer audits for Suppliers
HISTORY
Prior to Nadcap, aerospace companies audited their own Suppliers to their own process
requirements to verify compliance. As the processes the Suppliers were providing to their
customers were often similar or identical, the customer requirements were comparable.
Consequently, these duplicate audits were redundant and simply added to everyone’s
workload, without adding value. For the aerospace Prime contractors, conducting their own
audits similarly meant duplication of effort, redundant audits, unnecessary administration
and, ultimately, higher cost for no added value.
Then, in November 1989, a US Government/Industry Equal Partners Conference
recommended a consensus solution to the duplication of Supplier process control system
audits and in July 1990, the Performance Review Institute was incorporated to administer
the Nadcap program.
WHO'S INVOLVED
Nadcap is an industry-managed program. This means that customers from industry are
represented at every level of the organization, helping to shape the overall vision as well as
contributing to the daily activities of the program.
