INTRODUCTION

The objective of this SOP is to enable coordination and standardization of Quality Assurance and Quality Control of mine search and/or mine clearance. These two activities are defined by the Law on Humanitarian Demining (Official Gazette 153/05 and 63/07 CHAPTER VII « QUALITY ASSURANCE AND QUALITY CONTROL 1» and by the Rules and Regulations on Humanitarian Demining2 (Official Gazette 53/07 and 111/07, Chapter 6 «METHODS OF IMPLEMENTATION OF THE QUALITY ASSURANCE AND QUALITY CONTROL». This SOP defines all the phases of implementation of Quality Assurance and Quality Control, including the procedures and production of respective documents during the course of mine search and/or mine clearance. The ultimate goal is to set up mechanisms of Quality Assurance and Quality Control, which will result in the fulfilment of all requirements and the handover of mine free land to the beneficiaries for safe use. Quality Assurance and Quality Control are sets of procedures, which are conducted by CROMAC’s Quality Control Officers and Quality Assurance Monitors.

1. SUBJECT The following topics are elaborated in this document:

� PLANNING � EXECUTION DEADLINES AND RESPONSIBILITY � APPROVAL OF THE TASK EXECUTION PLAN3 � INTRODUCTION TO OPERATIONS � Quality Assurance – INSPECTION DURING MINE SEARCH AND/OR MINE

CLEARANCE - MONITORING

� Quality Control – INSPECTION OF COMPLETED MINE SEARCH AND/OR MINE CLEARANCE AND GEODETIC MEASUREMENT

� ANALYSIS OF A COMPLETED MINE SEARCH AND/OR MINE CLEARANCE TASK

� DOCUMENTING Planning is of utmost importance for the successful completion of any task. CROMAC conducts annual, quarterly and monthly planning and follows up respective achievements on a weekly basis. It is impossible to precisely define the start date of every of mine search and/or mine clearance since it is dependent on other factors (such as: on when the contract is signed and when the request for introduction to the operations is received ). Therefore, the planning in the QA and QC Department is conducted on a weekly basis. The QA and QC Department plans the implementation of the following activities: introduction to operations, beginning of the mine search and/or mine clearance, Quality Assurance and Quality Control of mine search and mine clearance activities. Completion deadlines give a timeframe for the realisation of a specific activity, i.e. for approval of the Task Execution Plan, Quality Assurance, implementation of the Quality Control, delivery of the required task documentation and update of the database accordingly. The process of approval of the Task Execution Plan involves receipt of the required paperwork sent to CROMAC’s Quality Assurance and Quality Control Department after the tender has been completed , the Task Execution Plan, all segments for evaluation and approval, implementers and the procedure of the Task Execution Plan approval. Introduction to operations is conducted following the receipt of a demining organisation’s request. It is done by Quality Control Officers with mandatory presence of the Head of Site and Quality Assurance Monitor. Quality Assurance – inspection during mine search and/or mine clearance. It is a set of procedures defined by the Law on Demining and Rules and Regulations on Demining. SOP emphasizes guidelines and methods for each phase, as well as the procedures in case of

any deviation from the Task Execution Plan. Monitoring of mine search and/or mine clearance is conducted from safe distance by authorised CROMAC monitors. Quality Control – inspection of the completed mine search and mine clearance. It is conducted by CROMAC’s Quality Control Officers after the completion of mine search and/or mine clearance and receipt of task documentation, which is defined by the Law on Humanitarian Demining and the Rules and Regulations on Humanitarian Demining. Quality Control is conducted by sampling and the survey of the samples is done by CROMAC’s deminers. Re-marking and geodetic measurement of mine searched and/or mine cleared land are done after the completion of the Quality Control. Analysis of the completed task is a procedure that is conducted following completion of the Quality Control. It involves the Quality Control Officer, who conducted the Quality Control of the task, the Head of the Survey Section in the respective Regional Office and a Database Advisor. The objective of this process is to give a final task analysis (analysis of minefield records, searched and/or cleared land and re-marking). Documenting is an important activity of Quality Management and involves the documenting of written minefield records and recording them in the database.

7. QUALITY ASSURANCE 7.1. Introduction Quality Assurance of mine search and/or mine clearance is conducted in accordance with Article 61 of the Law on Humanitarian Demining and Articles 74 – 79 of the Rules and Regulations on Humanitarian Demining. Quality Assurance of mine search and/or mine clearance is conducted by authorised CROMAC’s staff, Quality Assurance Monitors and Quality Control Officers. Responsibilities of a Quality Assurance Monitor are defined with Articles 75 and 76 of the Rules and Regulations on Humanitarian Demining. Responsibilities of a Quality Control Officer are defined with Articles 77, 78 and 79 of the Rules and Regulations on Humanitarian Demining. 7.2. Monitoring Monitoring is the observation of mine search and/or mine clearance activities. It is conducted by Quality Assurance Monitors, on the site from a safe distance. Monitoring does not obstruct the course of monitored activities. The Quality Control Officer manages the activities of the Quality Assurance Monitor. The Quality Assurance Monitor monitors the activities on the site, records procedures and activities and takes photographs of them. 7.2.1. Monitoring procedures Monitoring of mine search and/or mine clearance is done on daily basis during working hours. The Quality Assurance Monitor daily establishes:

• State of resources on the site; • If the activities are conducted in accordance with the Task Execution Plan; • If the safety measures are applied and • Other facts defined by the Task Execution Plan.

The state of resources on the site is established daily during the working hours and is recorded into the site diary. Only the methods specified in the approved Task Execution Plan may be applied on the site. Monitoring procedures that are conducted by the Quality Assurance Monitor are defined with the LAN code (a list of Quality Assurance Monitor’s activities), which makes a part of the site diary (ODR). If the Quality Assurance Monitor establishes irregularities on the site, i.e. deviations from the Task Execution Plan, he/she is obliged to notify the Quality Control Officer and to request from the Head of Site to comply with the Task Execution Plan. Before he begins working he/she must request from the Head of Site to produce the following for inspection:

• Daily site plan, • Daily plan of the Team Leaders.

Page 18: Quality Assurance and Quality Control of Mine Search and/or

18

He/she must obtain from the Head of Site a daily collective report for the previous day including the Team Leaders’ mine search and/or mine clearance records. 7.2.1.1. Monitoring of deminers’ work � Use of metal-detectors: � Working intervals, calibrations; � Adjustment testing intervals; � Search speed; � Procedures in case of detection.

Page 19: Quality Assurance and Quality Control of Mine Search and/or

19

� Are the activities ceased; � Is the found mine pulling conducted from a shelter.

7.2.1.2. Monitoring of mine detection dogs � Are two dogs searching the same box; � Is there a deminer on standby with the handler; � Is a deminer checking up a place where the dog sat (detection spot); � Is the land searched in the radius of 20 in case a mine or a UXO is found; � Number of effective working hours of mine detection dogs; � Performance during working hours; � Systematic approach by mine detection dogs; � Wearing of mandatory protective equipment.

Quality Assurance Monitor inspects searched and/or cleared area at least on every third day on at least three samples of 450 m2 in total. Sampling is done on those parts of the site where irregularities were established during the monitoring. If the Quality Assurance Monitor establishes irregularities specified in Article 78 of the Rules and Regulations on Humanitarian Demining, he/she is obliged to inform the Quality Control Officer, record monitoring results into the site diary and make necessary sketches. 7.2.1.3. Monitoring of demining machines

The Quality Assurance Monitor monitors demining machines through two phases. Visual monitoring:

A. State of the machine and its working tool before it is deployed and during the breaks; B. Overlapping of treated land during mechanical operations; C. Continuity of movement (stopping, creation of ground humps, lifting of the working tool and

similar); D. In case of high moisture of the soil, the machine leaves deep traces that are rapidly filled with

water, or it levels the treated land, or it pushes soil in front; E. Hard soil prevents the working from descending and lumps of soil of over 5 cm remain on the

surface; F. Vegetation, trees remain after mechanical ground preparation; G. Based on the efficiency report, he/she establishes the congruence of the achieved results with

those from the valid capability evaluation for the respective machine. H. If there are irregularities under any items from A to F, the Quality Assurance Monitor will not

accept mechanically prepared ground as the area where other planned methods, except for the manual, may be used unless the sampling is done.

If the requirements from A to F are met, the Quality Assurance Monitor compares the achieved results of the machine per one hour with the achieved results specified in the machine certificate. SAMPLING IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SOP 04-02 WILL BE CONDUCTED IN THE FOLLOWING CASES:

a) If the performance is greater than the one specified in the certificate; b) If, in the case of mine search, the manual method will be applied on a part of the area after

the use of the machine, which reached the specified depth. c) If mine detection dogs will be used, in the case of mine clearance.

Page 20: Quality Assurance and Quality Control of Mine Search and/or
