WPS interchange between regional offices of the same company
WPS interchange between regional offices of the same company
(OP)
A company has its main workshop in one country and many regional workshops in other countries. The regional workshops are using the welding procedures that were qualified in the main workshop.
The regional workshops have their own ISO and API certifications but the control system being followed are same as the main workshop.
Question 1: Is this allowed as per API 1104, ASME Sec IX and D1.1?
Question 2: How should this be documented in the Quality Management System that it conforms to Code requirements and also acceptable to the Clients?
