The Role

The role of the Quality Engineer (QE) - CFSI is to proactively manage Counterfeit, Fraudulent and Suspect Item (CFSI) arrangements in NNB by ensuring that there are adequate and appropriate arrangements implemented to manage the following aspects of CFSI in our Supply Chain:

CFSI Prevention Ensure NNB has clear anti-CFSI requirements identified in our arrangements with awareness throughout the Project Teams. Ensure that Suppliers responsibilities have been defined and that Suppliers have implemented appropriate QMS arrangements to manage CFSI in their organisation with effective flow down to their Supply Chain.

CFSI Detection Have oversight of the continuous process that is carried out during the manufacturing, delivery, construction, installation and commissioning phases of the project. Detection is achieved by using a combination of audit, surveillance and inspection carried out by suitably qualified and experienced personnel (SQEP) throughout the project life cycle.

CFSI Resolution Assist in the management of the resolution process activated when a CFSI event is detected either by the internal detection process or via an external third party advising of a potential CFSI event. Within 24 hours of the event notification an Event Alert should be raised. This action should trigger a series of internal and external stakeholder reviews that enable an informed decision to be made regarding the event. If the decision confirms a CFSI event has occurred CFSI investigation will commence

The QE CFSI role has both internal and external aspects with requirements to interface with

stakeholders from NNB and our Supply Chain. Delivery of CFSI briefings will be a key feature of

the role to build awareness of the risks and mitigations required.

The role includes supporting and conducting CFSI assessments with Suppliers to understand

and measure their CFSI risk profile.

The QE CFSI will be directly involved in investigating potential CFSI issues and where CFSI is confirmed, to lead or support their resolution.

The QE CFSI will coordinate the analysis and trending of CFSI events and be the interface with the EDF SA 'Lutte Contre la Draud' team within the Direction Qualitie Industrial (DQI).

The QE CFSI will work in close collaboration with all other project functions (e.g. technical directorate, supply chain, etc.) and the supply chain to ensure that project quality is delivered consistently (safely, efficiently and right first time) compliant with the scope of work and quality arrangements.
