Scope

OD-6110 establishes the procedures, flow-chart and process details for initial assessments, re‑assessments, follow‑up assessments and re‑location assessments of candidate NCBs seeking IECEE acceptance for the CoPC scheme. The F1 template is intended to record assessment findings and evidence for the certification‑body assessment (CoPC). The procedures require assessments to demonstrate competence and conformity with the IECEE rules and relevant conformity‑assessment standards (e.g., ISO/IEC 17024) and describe the review, reporting and CMC voting/acceptance stages.

Key topics and requirements

• Assessment types: initial assessment, re‑assessment (on or before the 3rd anniversary), follow‑up assessment and re‑location assessment.
• Assessment process flow chart and Table 1: staged steps from application endorsement through site visit, report compilation, IECEE Secretariat review and CMC decision.
• Evidence and critical aspects: evaluation of NCB personnel competence, quality management, familiarity with relevant standards and IECEE rules (including ISO/IEC 17024 requirements for personnel certification).
• Annex A: forms and templates associated with OD-6110 — includes the CoPC F1 certification body assessment form (template entry shown).
• Reporting and corrective action: mechanisms for non‑conformances, corrective‑action review, possible partial assessment follow‑up and final IECEE acceptance procedures.
• Assessment ownership and roles: IECEE Secretariat, Lead Assessor, peer assessment team and CMC oversight.

Typical use and users

Primary users: IECEE assessment teams, Lead Assessors, National Certification Bodies (NCBs) applying to operate in the IECEE CoPC scheme, accreditation bodies, and IECEE Secretariat staff. Secondary users: scheme owners, conformity‑assessment auditors, and NCB managers preparing applications or corrective‑action responses. The F1 template is used to record assessment findings during site visits and peer assessments.
