Approach for All Lab Assessments

• Same approach for Accelerator Safety Reviews• Use existing Quality Assurance and

Continuous Improvement IA and MSA procedures to plan, perform, and document Assessments

• Use Corrective Action Tracking System to track and trend corrective actions

• Post documented assessments on Web• Perform USI Screens, Critiques, and Notable

Events as needed
