FRIB has successfully completed the annual ISO 9001 surveillance audit of the Quality Management System (QMS). On May 13th and 14th, two auditors from the NSF-ISR (National Sanitation Foundation International Strategic Registrations) completed their audit after visiting various departments within the Laboratory and interviewing staff members. The auditors assessed the quality management system which has been enhanced to provide support for technical construction of FRIB, which is planned to start in 2014. The audit resulted in no corrective actions, which demonstrates the improvements made during the year are consistent with the ISO 9001 standard. The auditors will return for the QMS recertification audit in 2014.
