Major achievement Transference of Best Practice In Feb 2011 I transferred from Quality Assurance into Product Safety undergoing a six month transition period where I undertook in-house and external training. During this period I was 1 of 5

2 requested to undertake 2 nd Party (external) Product Safety audits on 15 key suppliers and to complete those audits before the end of the year. I accepted the challenge, however when I started I found that there was no governance or guidance on what to look for. So I started from scratch interviewing the Chief Engineer, the various design authorities or design advisers associated with each of the supplier s products to establish the company s needs from this audit. From there I constructed an individual checklist for each product and supplier and drafted an audit plan for the Project. After approximately 18 months of being in the Product safety role I realised that the company needed something a bit more robust than a simple Project Plan and that the company should have a governance document applicable to all projects. I spent 6 month drafting a document in my own time to establish a Product Safety Audit guide based on ISO 9001:2008 and a supporting checklist for both Internal and external Product Safety Audits. This has been well received by my company.
