The next meeting of the COC is schedule for April 12, 2012.

“Our Certification Oversight Committee conducts a review of the impartiality of our audits, certification and decision making processes,” says Kevin Mullaney, president & CEO of NSAI Inc. “Their findings will allow us to develop policies to maintain our impartiality and counter any commercial or other considerations that may influence our certifications approvals.” 

 The members of the COC are:

  • Leigh Eichel (Chairman) – Direct Logix
  • John Rae-Kelly – LTX Corporation
  • Kenneth Melillo – Genzyme Corporation
  • Paul MacMilan – PerkinElmer
  • Ted Cudal – EnviroSafe Systems

“The COC is highly important in assuring our clients and government agencies that NSAI is delivering the highest level of service and its certifications can be trusted with the utmost confidence,” Mullaney says. “The COC is another way that NSAI is demonstrating our commitment to being an impartial, reliable Registrar/Notified Body and ensures a strong foundation for our company to continually build upon.”
