The JNRC Survey & Engineering Sub-Committee has published guidance for members and market participants. An effective Quality Management System sits at the heart of a good project and supports operational resilience. In support of this, the Sub-Committee has produced a document for the benefit of both insurers and assureds entitled “Guideline for Auditing a Manufacturing Facility and the Implementation of Manufacturers’ QA and QC Procedures” aimed at offshore oil and gas (upstream) and renewables projects.

The Guideline considers current market shipyard audit opportunities embedded in the current JH143 and suggests possible enhancements to such an audit that, in addition to shipyards, include factories and fabrication yards. It also provides guidance on the critical features insurers should look for when reviewing the Quality Management System and the associated audit processes supporting project delivery and the quality of manufacturing facilities.
