Our latest podcast discusses Certification Oversight, formerly known as Other Party Management Team (OPMT). The decision to change the name was simple—the team wanted the name to make sense to people as soon as they read it and be clear about the responsibility of the team within IAQG.

Listen to learn more about the name change and the responsibilities of the Certification Oversight team, with special guest Eric Jefferies, Senior Manager of Process Integrity with Bell-Textron, and the AAQG Sector Lead and Lead for Certification Oversight. He discusses the role of the team in writing standards, publishing, and certifying the process. 

You will gain insight into the team’s approach to moving toward consistency. Regardless of the sector, what certification body is providing the service or what auditor is onsite, the team is striving for a consistent interpretation of the requirements, and for certification to mean the same thing across the board. 

You will also hear Jefferies’ opinion on why OASIS v3 is so important to certification.
