3.4 Nomenclature
The following nomenclature applies throughout this document:
a. The word “shall” is used in this Standard to express requirements. All
the requirements are expressed with the word “shall”.
b. The word “should” is used in this Standard to express recommendations.
All the recommendations are expressed with the word “should”.
NOTE It is expected that, during tailoring,
recommendations in this document are either
converted into requirements or tailored out.
c. The words “may” and “need not” are used in this Standard to express
positive and negative permissions, respectively. All the positive
permissions are expressed with the word “may”. All the negative
permissions are expressed with the words “need not”.

Nonconformance control system
principles
4.1 Process and objectives
The Figure 4-1 describes the approach to the identification and processing of
nonconforming items, which can be performed at each customer/supplier level
This includes:
corrective actions against root causes, to avoid recurrence for other
products;
prompt and effective communication between suppliers and customers;
the prevention of nonconformance occurrence, from the analysis of
nonconformance records and derived lessons learned.
4.2 Detection and immediate actions
When a nonconformance is detected, the project PA representative analyses it to
identify its extent and cause. In addition he takes immediate actions to prevent
unauthorized use of the nonconforming item. The nonconformance is
documented on the NCR form and submitted to the internal NRB.

4.3 Nonconformance review board (NRB)
4.3.1 Internal NRB
The internal NRB investigates the causes and consequences of the
nonconformance and classifies the nonconformance either as minor or major.
Furthermore, minor nonconformances are then disposed as follows:
Return to supplier: This disposition only applies to nonconforming
procured items.
Use “asis”: The item is found to be usable without eliminating the
nonconformance.
Rework: The item is recoverable to conform completely to all specified
requirements. Additional work is performed to prepare the item for the
rework (e.g. removal of faulty work and cleaning). In no case should the
result of earlier applied processes or the precondition for other processes to
be applied later on, be affected.
Scrap: The item is not recoverable by rework or repair, for technical or
economic reasons.
Repair: The item is recoverable such that it fulfils the intended usage
requirements although it does not conform to the originally specified
requirements.
The repair procedure is one of the following:
f. Qualified or standard repair procedure: Those repair procedures which
have been approved by the customer in advance for defined applications.
g. Specific repair procedure: Those repair procedures which are prepared
for the specific nonconformance and are approved by the NRB.
Any repair procedure includes the verifications needed to check the repair
result.
Major nonconformances are submitted to the customer NRB.
4.3.2 Customer NRB
In principle the customer NRB follows the same process as the internal NRB. In
addition, an assessment whether requirements of higher level customers are
impacted is performed. If so, these higher level customers are involved in
ensuing NRBs. The need for a waiver is also identified and recommended by
this NRB.
NOTE Multiple internal or customer NRBs can be held
before the NCR is closed out.

EN 16602-10-09:2020 (E)
4.4 Corrective and preventive actions
During internal as well as customer NRB, corrective actions are determined to
eliminate the causes of the nonconformances. Preventive actions are identified
to avoid the occurrence of the nonconformance on similar items.
4.5 Implementation of actions and nonconformance
close-out
The supplier implements the corrective and/or preventive actions as defined by
the NRB.
As soon as all actions are performed and verified, the supplier PA
representative closes-out the nonconformance and informs the customer.
4.6 Documentation
The supplier documents his implementation of the nonconformance control
system.
The supplier’s internal reporting and processing of nonconformances is open
and visible to customer reviews and do not delay the processing of the
nonconformance in accordance with this Standard.
The supplier may maintain a database of minor and major nonconformances to
a. followup the NCR,
b. generate a nonconformance status list (see Annex B),
c. electronically process the nonconformance.
The amount of information stored should be sufficient to allow statistical and
trend analysis.

3.4 Nomenclature
The following nomenclature applies throughout this document:
a. The word “shall” is used in this Standard to express requirements. All
the requirements are expressed with the word “shall”.
b. The word “should” is used in this Standard to express recommendations.
All the recommendations are expressed with the word “should”.
NOTE It is expected that, during tailoring,
recommendations in this document are either
converted into requirements or tailored out.
c. The words “may” and “need not” are used in this Standard to express
positive and negative permissions, respectively. All the positive
permissions are expressed with the word “may”. All the negative
permissions are expressed with the words “need not”.
d. The word “can” is used in this Standard to express capabilities or
possibilities, and therefore, if not accompanied by one of the previous
words, it implies descriptive text.
NOTE In ECSS “may” and “can” have completely
different meanings: “may” is normative
(permission), and “can” is descriptive.

Nonconformance control system
principles
4.1 Process and objectives
The Figure 4-1 describes the approach to the identification and processing of
nonconforming items, which can be performed at each customer/supplier level
This includes:
corrective actions against root causes, to avoid recurrence for other
products;
prompt and effective communication between suppliers and customers;
the prevention of nonconformance occurrence, from the analysis of
nonconformance records and derived lessons learned.
4.2 Detection and immediate actions
When a nonconformance is detected, the project PA representative analyses it to
identify its extent and cause. In addition he takes immediate actions to prevent
unauthorized use of the nonconforming item. The nonconformance is
documented on the NCR form and submitted to the internal NRB.

4.3 Nonconformance review board (NRB)
4.3.1 Internal NRB
The internal NRB investigates the causes and consequences of the
nonconformance and classifies the nonconformance either as minor or major.
Furthermore, minor nonconformances are then disposed as follows:
Return to supplier: This disposition only applies to nonconforming
procured items.
Use “asis”: The item is found to be usable without eliminating the
nonconformance.
Rework: The item is recoverable to conform completely to all specified
requirements. Additional work is performed to prepare the item for the
rework (e.g. removal of faulty work and cleaning). In no case should the
result of earlier applied processes or the precondition for other processes to
be applied later on, be affected.
Scrap: The item is not recoverable by rework or repair, for technical or
economic reasons.
Repair: The item is recoverable such that it fulfils the intended usage
requirements although it does not conform to the originally specified
requirements.
The repair procedure is one of the following:
f. Qualified or standard repair procedure: Those repair procedures which
have been approved by the customer in advance for defined applications.
g. Specific repair procedure: Those repair procedures which are prepared
for the specific nonconformance and are approved by the NRB.
Any repair procedure includes the verifications needed to check the repair
result.
Major nonconformances are submitted to the customer NRB.
4.3.2 Customer NRB
In principle the customer NRB follows the same process as the internal NRB. In
addition, an assessment whether requirements of higher level customers are
impacted is performed. If so, these higher level customers are involved in
ensuing NRBs. The need for a waiver is also identified and recommended by
this NRB.
NOTE Multiple internal or customer NRBs can be held
before the NCR is closed out.

prEN 16602-10-09:2018 (E)
4.4 Corrective and preventive actions
During internal as well as customer NRB, corrective actions are determined to
eliminate the causes of the nonconformances. Preventive actions are identified
to avoid the occurrence of the nonconformance on similar items.
4.5 Implementation of actions and nonconformance
close-out
The supplier implements the corrective and/or preventive actions as defined by
the NRB.
As soon as all actions are performed and verified, the supplier PA
representative closes-out the nonconformance and informs the customer.
4.6 Documentation
The supplier documents his implementation of the nonconformance control
system.
The supplier’s internal reporting and processing of nonconformances is open
and visible to customer reviews and do not delay the processing of the
nonconformance in accordance with this Standard.
The supplier may maintain a database of minor and major nonconformances to
a. followup the NCR,
b. generate a nonconformance status list (see Annex B),
c. electronically process the nonconformance.
The amount of information stored should be sufficient to allow statistical and
trend analysis.
