What is IECQ QC 080000 HSPM?

IEC=International Electrotechnique Commission

International Electrotechnical Commission

IECQ=IEC Quality Assessment System for Electronic Components

IEC electronic components quality assessment system

HSPM=Electrical and Electronic Components and Products Hazardous Substance Process Management System Requirements (HSPM)

Requirements for the process management system for hazardous substances in electrical and electronic components and products

The establishment of this standard and its requirements is to ensure that the realization of no banned hazardous substances in products and production processes depends on effective integrated management control

IECQ HSPM – Hazardous Substances Process Management System Certification QC 080000 Based on (EIA/ECCB-954)

QC 080000 HSPM is a supplement to the current ISO9000 quality management system. It is consistent with the ISO9000 structure and is a comprehensive, systematic and transparent management system. The purpose is to control the harmful substances in the production process.

History of QC 080000 HSPM

The EU RoHS Directive makes the world realize that the threat to life of harmful substances in electrical and electronic equipment must be stopped, and control measures must be taken in the design and production stages of electrical and electronic equipment.

QC 080000 HSPM is a management framework formulated by the industry committee, and relevant control measures should be carried out according to this framework.

**

Purpose of IECQ QC 080000 HSPM Standard**

Manufacturers, suppliers, repairers, and maintainers of products develop processes to identify, control, monitor and report hazardous substances in the products they manufacture and supply

The customer and user of the product understand the status of no banned hazardous substances and the process of understanding the determination of no hazardous substances

Followers of QC 080000 HSPM

Product manufacturer: Refers to an organization or entity that manufactures a product or series of products whose content of harmful substances must be known on a quantitative basis.

Product Provider: An organization or entity that obtains products from a manufacturer for distribution to next-level customers or users; or combines manufactured products into higher-level products for subsequent customers or users.

Product Repairer: Refers to an organization or entity that repairs or restores the functionality of a damaged product

Product maintainer: An organization or entity responsible for keeping the product's functionality available after it has been put into service.

**

Why apply for IECQ-HSPM - industry needs to meet customer and government requirements such as: UK RoHS best effort prevention regulations**

If the organization can show that it has done its best to control the content of banned substances, but the product is still not RoHS compliant, the organization can avoid liability

What does it mean to do your best?

Obtain the certificate of conformity (preservation for 4 years)

Implemented reliable system management

Identify those responsible for providing misinformation (tracing back into the supply chain)

Reduce risk Reduce the risk of violating laws and regulations through standard compliance audits

Reduce testing costs through standard compliance audits, reducing product testing frequency and costs

Reduce costs Through standard compliance audits, reduce supplier management costs

Enhance customer trust Enhance customer trust and satisfaction through standard compliance audits

QC 080000 certification

Certification can indicate that the organization has established, documented and effectively implemented control measures in the production process of electrical and electronic products. Certification needs to be based on other management system certifications, such as: ISO 9001 / ISO 13485 / TL 9000 / TS 16949, if not, it will be combined with The combination of ISO9001 certification and quality management system audit can reduce the number of man-days by 30%
