In the specific implementation of the certification work, the enterprises applying for CCC certification should establish the corresponding quality assurance capability according to the requirements of the factory quality assurance capability and the corresponding product certification implementation rules/rules, aiming at the product characteristics and production and processing characteristics, with the goal of ensuring the consistency of the certified products and the type test samples produced. Now let’s talk about the common non-conformities in the process of CCC factory inspection and the corresponding rectification plan.
1、 Common non-conformities of responsibilities and resources
Non-conformance: the person in charge of quality has no letter of authorization or the letter of authorization has expired.
Rectification: the factory needs to supplement the valid power of attorney of the person in charge of quality with seal and signature.
2、 Common non-conformances of documents and records
Problem 1: The factory failed to provide the latest and effective version of management documents; Multiple versions coexist in the factory file.
Rectification: The factory needs to sort out relevant documents and provide the latest version of documents that meet the certification requirements.
Problem 2: The factory has not specified the storage time of its quality records, or the specified storage time is less than 2 years.
Rectification: The factory needs to clearly specify in the record control procedure that the storage time of records shall not be less than 2 years.
Problem 3: The factory did not identify and save important documents related to product certification
Rectification: The implementation rules, implementation rules, standards, type test reports, supervision and random inspection reports, complaint information, etc. related to product certification need to be properly kept for inspection.
3、 Common non-conformities in procurement and key parts control
Problem 1: The enterprise does not understand the regular confirmation inspection of key parts, or confuses it with the incoming inspection of key parts.
Rectification: if the key parts listed in the CCC certification type test report have not obtained the corresponding CCC/voluntary certification certificate, the enterprise needs to carry out annual confirmation inspection on the key parts according to the requirements of the implementation rules to ensure that the quality characteristics of the key parts can continue to meet the certification standards and/or technical requirements, and write the requirements into the relevant documents of the regular confirmation inspection. The incoming inspection of key parts is the acceptance inspection of key parts at the time of each batch of incoming goods, which cannot be confused with regular confirmation inspection.
Problem 2: When enterprises purchase key parts from distributors and other secondary suppliers, or entrust subcontractors to produce key parts, components, sub-assemblies, semi-finished products, etc., the factory does not control these key parts.
Rectification: In this case, the enterprise cannot directly contact the suppliers of key parts. Then the enterprise shall add a quality agreement to the purchase agreement of the secondary supplier. The agreement specifies that the secondary supplier is responsible for the quality control of these key parts, and what key quality needs to be controlled to ensure the consistency of key parts.
Problem 3: Non-metallic materials of household appliances are missing in regular confirmation inspection
Rectification: Because the regular confirmation inspection of non-metallic materials of household appliances is twice a year, enterprises often forget or only do it once a year. The requirements for periodic confirmation and inspection of non-metallic materials twice a year shall be included in the document and strictly implemented in accordance with the requirements.
4、 Common non-conformities in production process control
Problem: Key processes in the production process are not correctly identified
Rectification: The enterprise should identify the key processes that have an important impact on the conformity of products with standards and product conformity. For example, assembly in general sense; Dipping and winding of motor; And the extrusion and injection of plastic and non-metallic key parts. These key processes are identified and controlled in the enterprise management documents.
5、 Common non-conformities in routine inspection and confirmation inspection
Problem 1: The inspection clauses listed in the routine inspection/confirmation inspection documents do not meet the requirements of the certification implementation rules
Rectification: The enterprise should carefully study the requirements for routine inspection and confirmation of inspection items in the relevant product certification implementation rules/rules, and list the corresponding requirements in the relevant management documents of the certified product inspection to avoid missing items.
Problem 2: Routine inspection records are missing
Rectification: The enterprise needs to train the production line routine inspection staff, emphasize the importance of routine inspection records, and record the relevant results of routine inspection as required.
6、 Common non-conformities of instruments and equipment for inspection and test
Problem 1: The enterprise forgot to measure and calibrate the testing equipment within the period specified in its own document
Rectification: The enterprise needs to send the equipment that has not been measured on schedule to a qualified measurement and calibration institution for measurement and calibration within the period specified in the document, and affix the corresponding identification on the corresponding detection equipment.
Problem 2: The enterprise lacks the equipment function inspection or records.
Rectification: The enterprise needs to check the function of the testing equipment according to the provisions of its own documents, and the method of the function check should also be strictly implemented according to the provisions of the enterprise documents. Pay attention not to the situation that the document stipulates that the standard parts are used for the function check of the withstand voltage tester, but the short circuit method is used for the function check on the site and other similar inspection methods do not correspond.
7、 Common non-conformities in the control of nonconforming products
Problem 1: When there are major problems in the national and provincial supervision and random inspection, the enterprise documents do not specify the handling method.
Rectification: When the factory learns that there are major problems with its certified products, the enterprise documents need to specify that when there are major problems with the products in the national and provincial supervision and random inspection, the factory should promptly notify the certification authority of the specific problems.
Problem 2: The enterprise did not specify the designated storage location or mark the nonconforming products on the production line.
Rectification: The enterprise shall draw a storage area for nonconforming products at the corresponding position of the production line, and make corresponding identification for nonconforming products. There should also be relevant provisions in the document.
8、 Change of certified products and common non-conformities in consistency control and on-site designated tests
Problem: The factory has obvious product inconsistency in key parts, safety structure and appearance.
Rectification: This is a serious non-conformance of CCC certification. If there is any problem with product consistency, the factory inspection will be directly judged as the fourth grade failure, and the corresponding CCC certificate will be suspended. Therefore, before making any change to the product, the enterprise needs to submit a change application or make a change consultation to the certification authority to ensure that there is no problem with the product consistency during factory inspection.
9、 CCC certificate and mark
Problem: The factory did not apply for the approval of the mark molding, and did not establish the use account of the mark when purchasing the mark.
Rectification: The factory shall apply to the Certification Center of the Certification and Accreditation Administration for the purchase of marks or the application for the approval of mark molding as soon as possible after obtaining the CCC certificate. If it is to apply for the purchase of the mark, the use of the mark needs to establish a standing book, which should correspond to the enterprise’s shipping standing book one by one.
