the level of production planning,
storage and handling of parent metals and welding consumables,
operation and performance of inspection,
identification and traceability of product and work in progress,
correction of product non-conformance, and
the extent and storage of quality records.

Emphasis on Personnel competence and qualifications at all
levels
Safety requirements (Occupational health safety, PPE,
environment etc.)
Mandatory for supply of products to EU and many other
countries
Many product standards call for the standard
