3.4.4 Quality assurance procedures. Procedures that are essential to equipment performance
or to safety of personnel are considered to be "Quality Assurance Procedures". It is necessary to
ensure that all required tasks, including final testing of the end item (verification of repair), are
accomplished prior to completion of work. Control of these required actions is accomplished by
the following two methods;
a. Highlighting in-process QA inspections. Procedures that are essential to equipment
performance or to safety of personnel and that must be observed or checked by a quality
assurance inspector (CDI) prior to the technician proceeding to the next step are
considered to be "in-process QA inspections". Therefore, quality assurance required
procedures shall be highlighted by the addition of the abbreviation "(QA)" following the
procedure/step. An explanation of the requirements and highlighting shall be given in
the introduction to the data. Examples are as follows: required gauge readings, torque
readings (excluding torque limiting), and tasks that will be subsequently covered and the
quality assurance requirements cannot be verified without disassembly.
