To receive a Certificate of Authorization from the TSSA for your quality program, you must submit the following:
|
Site survey |
| The TSSA confirms a survey date after all documents have been received in good order. A demonstration item on which the program can be seen in operation is also required at the time of the TSSA shop or field site survey. The demonstration item may be work in progress or a demonstration job manufactured specifically for the survey. This often requires TSSA Inspector involvement on the demonstration item before a site survey can be performed. Please check this with your local TSSA Inspector. |
