Analysis Approach

RSC employs a team approach with interaction between the assigned RSC personnel and client being a prime consideration. This interaction allows RSC to better meet the needs of the client and encourages the exchange of information between RSC and the client.

This exchange of information is a key part of the RSC organizational goal. Team members excel in this important aspect of client support by providing training, guidance and continuing support to RSC clients.

To ensure quality, all work is performed under the RSC QA/QC process. This plan outlines the analysis process, training requirements, review process and documentation requirements for work performed by RSC. The elements of the QA/QC plan meet the intent for documentation and review as specified in IAEA peer review, NSAC 67 and other peer review and certification documents.
