SUPPLIER QUALITY ASSURANCE REQUIREMENTS

(BNL-QA-101)

5.2/2d01e011.docx Page 1 of 6 (04/2025)

PO/Contract No.: __479034__________________________________

1.0 PURPOSE & SCOPE

1.1 This document establishes quality assurance requirements to which Suppliers to Brookhaven Science Associates (BSA) must conform when specified in the procurement documentation.

1.2 This document contains two main sections. Section 3.0 covers the general requirements that are applicable to all Suppliers.

Section 4.0 contains special quality requirements that are applicable only when specifically invoked in the procurement documentation.

2.0 DEFINITIONS

2.1 The term Procurement documentation means the purchase order

(PO), contract, subcontract, Request for Proposal (RFP), Request for Quotation (RFQ) or other written agreement with the Supplier (seller) in which the requirements of BSA are incorporated.

2.2 The term Buyer means BSA operating Brookhaven National

Laboratory, acting by and through its Procurement & Property Management Division (PPM) issuing the PO/contract.

2.3 The term Supplier (seller) means the legal entity, which is the contracting party, with the Buyer with respect to the procurement documentation.

2.4 The term article or item means a product and/or a service.

3.0 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

Unless otherwise specified in the procurement documentation, the following General Requirements apply:

3.1 Supplier’s Quality System and Quality Requirements

The Supplier must have and maintain an effective quality system that will, as a minimum, comply with all of the requirements as designated by the following:

3.1.1 A quality system certified/registered to the ISO

9001 standard: (latest revision as of the date of issuing the procurement documentation).

3.1.2 A quality system that meets the requirements of the

ISO 9001 standard: “Quality Management Systems – Requirements” (latest revision as of the date of issuing the procurement documentation).

3.1.3 Conformance to Supplier’s/Manufacturer’s quality

program or system.

3.1.4 Other: Refer to procurement documentation, (e.g. PO, Statement of Work [SOW], specifications, drawings) for quality requirements.

NOTE: Clauses 3.2 through 3.22 apply to all POs and will be included collectively in other procurement documentation when required/specified.

3.2 Assessment by Buyer

The Supplier’s quality system is subject to assessments by the Buyer’s Representative(s) for conformance with the requirements of the PO. Supplier or Distributor must allow BSA representatives, BSA customers, and regulatory agencies right of entry into the Supplier’s facilities to determine and verify product, processes, records, personnel, material, procedures, and systems.

3.3 Change Approval

No change(s) are permitted to be made to any Buyer requirements, (e.g. part number, model number, etc.) without the prior written approval of the Buyer.

3.4 Responsibility for Subcontractors

It is the responsibility of the Supplier to impose applicable requirements from this document upon their subcontractors.

Additionally, the Buyer reserves the right to disapprove, in writing, any subcontractor. For nuclear facility requirements per NQA-1, the Supplier must incorporate NQA-1 requirements in sub-tier procurement documents.

3.5 Responsibility for Conformance

The Supplier is responsible to provide items that conform to the requirements of the PO regardless of any assessments, surveillances, inspections and/or tests by the Buyer or its representatives at either the Supplier’ or Buyer’s facility. The Buyer reserves the right to request failure analysis and corrective action for non-conforming articles or items submitted or supplied to the Buyer. The Supplier is responsible for notifying the Buyer of any recalls or alerts associated with this

PO.

When NQA-1 requirements are imposed, prior to shipment, the Supplier must report any nonconformance that cannot be corrected to full conformance and obtain approval from BNL for possible Use-As-Is or Repair dispositions. Additionally, for commercial grade services, a service performance record must be provided that documents the adequacy of the service performed to the identified critical characteristics documented in the PO/contract.

3.6 Protection of Material and Equipment

The Supplier must employ procedures that assure adequate protection of material and equipment during shipment and while in storage. Such protection must include special environmental packaging, as necessary. All items shipped (originally packaged or repackaged) to BNL or other locations cited in the PO or contract, must comply with the requirements for preservation, packaging and marking as stated in the latest revision of ASTM Standard D 3951 Standard Practice for Commercial Packaging.

3.7 Measuring and Test Equipment (M&TE) Calibration

The Supplier must calibrate any M&TE used in the fulfillment of the PO requirements against certified standards that are traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), or some other recognized national or international standard, or physical constant. The Supplier must notify the Buyer of any condition found during the calibration, servicing or repair of measuring and test equipment that can affect the end item requirements.

3.8 Suspect Counterfeit Parts

The Supplier shall verify the procurement source and associated documentation certifying authenticity.

Exhibit D

SUPPLIER QUALITY ASSURANCE REQUIREMENTS BNL-QA-101

5.2/2d01e011.docx Page 2 of 7 (04/2025)

Appropriate incoming inspection and / or test methods shall be used to detect potential suspect counterfeit items.

The Supplier shall flow this requirement down to all sub-tier suppliers to prevent the inadvertent use of suspect counterfeit items.

Distributors shall not modify, rework or repair any items shipped on this order.

For reference only, a list of authorized/franchised distributors for electronic components can be found at:

https://www.trustedparts.com/

* For more information refer to the following Department of Energy website: https://www.energy.gov/ehss/corporate-reporting-analysis/databases/suspectcounterfeit-and-defective-items

3.9 Electrostatic Discharge Control

Items that are susceptible/sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESDS) must be handled and packaged to protect them from damage. Items and/or packages must be labeled to indicate the susceptibility to electrostatic discharge.

3.10 Electrical or Fire Protection Equipment, Material, and

Systems All electrical or fire protection equipment, material, and systems delivered to BNL must be certified, listed, or labeled by a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL). The CE mark is NOT a recognized NRTL certification mark. (For a listing of OSHA-recognized NRTLs, refer to http://www.osha.gov/)

For electrical or fire protection equipment, material, and systems which no NRTL accepts, certifies, lists, labels, or otherwise determined to be safe, the Supplier must determine the equipment to be safe for its intended use. The determination must be made on the basis of test data. The determination and test data documents must be made available to BSA prior to or upon delivery for review and acceptance by the applicable BSA Authority Having Jurisdiction

(AHJ).

In accordance with 29 CFR 1910.147(c)(2)(iii) whenever new machines or equipment are provided with energy isolating devices, those devices must be designed to accept a lockout device.

3.11 Hoisting & Rigging Equipment

All hoisting & rigging equipment used at BNL must meet the requirements of the latest applicable OSHA Regulations and ASME B30 Series standards for design, construction, markings, and proof load testing.

When proof load testing is required by the standards, a certificate must be provided upon delivery documenting the proof test.

3.12 Deleted – requirements were added to each Purchase Order as the “Advance Notification of Delivery.”

3.13 Powered Machine Shop Equipment

All powered machine shop equipment (e.g., lathe) delivered to BNL must meet the requirements of the latest applicable OSHA 1910 Regulations (e.g., part subpart O). Equipment purchased must include an integrated NFPA 79 compliant emergency stop and an anti-restart device.

3.14 Vehicle-Mounted Elevating and Rotating Aerial Devices
