Supply Chain Quality Working Group

SCQWG

About Us

The group's vision is to help improve Right First Time delivery of materials and services across the nuclear enterprise. The groups strategic objectives are as follows:

  • Understand and improve the performance of the supply chain
  • Drive towards common requirements across the supply base
  • Influence the activities of related working groups
  • Share best practice

 

Our Strategy 

The ability of the nuclear industry and other stakeholders to meet this new demand for energy will depend on several factors, including the capacity to manufacture and deliver the required quantity and quality of equipment for both existing nuclear power plants and new build needs. The SCQWG was created to understand the latest challenges related to supply chain oversight practices and will examine potential risks that the nuclear industry will need to consider to ensure safe and reliable nuclear operations.

Programme of Work

Development and Training

Aim: Suppliers have the skills to meet industry requirements, drive continuous improvements, and supply chain is resilient due to breadth and depth.

Supplier Risk, Opportunity, and Intelligence

Aim: Industry-wide clarity on supply chain intel/risk (themes e.g. CFSI; capability areas e.g. welding; specific suppliers e.g. poor performers?).

Assurance

Aim: Consistency of assurance of minimum industry-wide standards. Cross party assurance collaboration where possible.

Minimum Standards and Expectations

Aim:Clear industry-wide minimum (optimum?) standards for the nuclear supply chain (with graded approach).
