CONTENT, PROCEDURE, AND PRINCIPLES FOR USING EVALUATION METHODS TO DETERMINE COMPLIANCE

(Annexed to Circular No. 28/2012/TT-BKHCN dated December 12, 2012, issued by the Minister of Science and Technology)

CONTENT, PROCEDURE, AND PRINCIPLES FOR USING EVALUATION METHODS TO DETERMINE COMPLIANCE

I. Method 1: Testing Typical Samples

Method 1 involves testing typical samples of products or goods to conclude on compliance. The conclusion on compliance applies to the type or model of product or good that was sampled.

1. Content and procedure of the main activities in Method 1 include:

1.1. Sampling:

Conduct sampling of typical samples for products or goods. A typical sample of a product or good represents a specific type or model produced under the same design, in the same conditions, and using the same raw materials.

The number of samples must be sufficient for testing and retention.

1.2. Evaluation of compliance of tested samples:

The product or good samples are tested at laboratories registered for testing activities according to the law, which may include the manufacturer’s laboratory. Priority should be given to designated and recognized laboratories.

The characteristics of the product or good to be tested and the testing methods are specified in the corresponding standards or technical regulations.

1.3. Processing the evaluation results:

Review the characteristics of the product or good based on the test results compared to the requirements of the corresponding standards or technical regulations.

1.4. Conclusion on compliance

Conclude on the compliance of the product or good with the requirements of the corresponding standards or technical regulations. The product or good is considered compliant if all the criteria of the tested sample meet the prescribed levels of the corresponding standards or technical regulations.

2. Principles for using Method 1

Method 1 is used to evaluate the compliance of products or goods under the following conditions:

a) The design of the product or good allows clear identification of each type or model;

b) It is not possible to assess the requirements for maintaining stable quality.

II. Method 2: Testing Typical Samples and Evaluating Production Processes; Monitoring Through Market Sample Testing

Method 2 bases its conclusions on the compliance of products or goods on the results of testing typical samples and evaluating production processes, followed by monitoring through testing market samples.

1. Content and procedure of the main activities in Method 2 include:

1.1. Sampling:

Proceed as stipulated in Section 1.1 of Method 1.

1.2. Evaluation of compliance of tested samples:

Proceed as stipulated in Section 1.2 of Method 1.

1.3. Evaluation of compliance of production processes:

The evaluation of production processes must fully consider the manufacturer's control conditions related to the formation of the product to ensure stable quality. These control conditions include:

a) Technical file control (design documents, product technical standards);

b) Full production process control from input, through intermediate stages, until the product is formed, including packaging, storage, and transportation;

c) Raw material, semi-finished product, and finished product quality control;

d) Control of technological equipment and measuring, inspecting, and testing equipment;

đ) Skill level control of workers and technical staff;

e) Other necessary technical contents.

If the manufacturer already has a quality management system certificate from a recognized certification organization for the field of certification or recognized for the production of the evaluated product or good, there is no need to evaluate the production process. However, if there is evidence of non-maintenance of the effectiveness of the quality management system, the certification body must conduct a production process evaluation and report to the General Department of Standardization, Metrology, and Quality Control.

1.4. Processing the evaluation results:

Review the characteristics of the product or good based on the test results compared to the requirements of the corresponding standards or technical regulations.

Review the compliance of the production process with the requirements specified in Section 1.3 of this method.

1.5. Conclusion on compliance

Conclude on the compliance of the product or good with the requirements of the corresponding standards or technical regulations. The product or good is considered compliant if it meets both of the following conditions:

a) All criteria of the tested sample comply with the prescribed levels of the corresponding standards or technical regulations;

b) The production process evaluation results comply with the requirements.

The conclusion on conformity of products and goods shall have maximum validity of three years provided that such products and goods are subject to monitoring and evaluation.

1.6. Monitoring:

During the validity period of the conformity conclusion, products and goods must be evaluated and monitored through sampling tests conducted on the market. The frequency of evaluation and monitoring must not exceed once every twelve months.

Sampling testing of products and goods shall be carried out as prescribed in Sections 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 of Method 1.

The results of the monitoring and evaluation will serve as the basis for deciding whether to maintain, suspend, or revoke the conformity conclusion.

2. Principles for using Method 2:

Method 2 is used to evaluate the conformity of products and goods under the following conditions:

a) Products and goods belong to a category with low risk to safety, health, and environment;

b) The design of products and goods allows clear identification of each type and characteristic model;

c) It is necessary to pay attention to maintaining the stability of quality characteristics of products and goods during production;

d) The quality of products and goods may change during distribution and circulation on the market;

đ) Organizations and individuals producing and trading products and goods have effective measures to recall products and goods from the market when they are found to be non-conforming during monitoring.

2. Principles for using Method 3:

Method 3 is used to evaluate the conformity of products and goods under the following conditions:

a) Products and goods belong to a category with higher risk to safety, health, and environment than those evaluated according to Method 2;

b) The design of products and goods allows clear identification of each type and characteristic model;

c) It is necessary to pay attention to maintaining the stability of quality characteristics of products and goods during production;

d) The quality of products and goods essentially does not change or changes little during distribution and circulation on the market;

đ) It is difficult to implement effective measures to recall products and goods from the market when they are found to be non-conforming during monitoring.

IV. Method 4: Typical sample testing and production process assessment; monitoring through sampling at the place of production and on the market combined with production process assessment.

Method 4 bases its conclusions on conformity on the results of typical sample testing and production process assessment. Subsequent monitoring is carried out through sampling of products and goods taken from the place of production and on the market combined with production process assessment.

Sampling testing of products and goods shall be carried out as prescribed in Sections 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 of Method 1.

Production process assessment is conducted as prescribed in Section 1.3 of Method 2.

The results of the monitoring and evaluation will serve as the basis for deciding whether to maintain, suspend, or revoke the conformity conclusion.

2. Principles for using Method 4:

Method 4 is used to evaluate the conformity of products and goods under the following conditions:

a) Products and goods belong to a category with higher risk to safety, health, and environment than those evaluated for conformity according to Method 3;

b) The design of products and goods allows clear identification of each type and characteristic model;

c) It is necessary to pay attention to maintaining the stability of quality characteristics of products and goods during production;

d) The quality of products and goods may become unstable during production and change during distribution and circulation on the market;

đ) There are measures allowing the recall of products and goods from the market when they are found to be non-conforming during monitoring.

V. Method 5: Typical sample testing and production process assessment; monitoring through sampling at the place of production or on the market combined with production process assessment.
