All companies engaged in welded production are required to establish and implement ISO 3834 Welded Manufacturing Competence Management System in their enterprises and then obtain ISO 3834 Certificate. After the system is applied for a while, the certification process is initiated by applying to a certification body.
In general, the first step is taken by completing an application form to be obtained from certification bodies. However, it is necessary to be careful in the selection of the certification body and to investigate whether it is authorized by a national or international accreditation body.
After the evaluation of the application form, the certification body prepares a contract. The scope of the service to be provided in the contract should be clear and understandable. As soon as the contract is signed by the applicant company, the work starts and the certification body appoints a sufficient number of auditors depending on the size of the enterprise and the number of employees.
Audits are performed for all industrial companies that make production using welding based on ISO 3834 standard. Audits are carried out on the basis of TS EN 15085 standard for enterprises engaged in the production and repair of railway vehicles and parts. The auditors first perform a preliminary audit of the documentation work. If there are any nonconformities or errors during the pre-audit, they are requested to be remedied. Field inspections are not carried out until the documentation deficiencies are eliminated.
