1 Overview of Draft API Standard 20M Qualification of Suppliers of Machining Services for Use in the Petroleum and Natural Gas Industries API STANDARD 20M Slide 1 of 9

2 Overview Standard 20M provides methods of qualifying machining service suppliers. This standard will assist user companies, such as equipment manufacturers, in reducing their effort towards supplier qualification programs. T are 3 levels: o MQL 1 o MQL 2 o MQL 3 Slide 2 of 9

3 4.2 Machining Quality Levels (MQL) MQL 1 Machining Services Supplier The base level of qualification to ensure that the machining service provided meets specific customer and industry requirements. A MQL 1 machining services supplier, at a minimum, shall have a self-certified quality management system. The MQL 1 machining services supplier shall determine the processes needed for the management of machining services. A MQL 1 machining services supplier shall supply the machining services defined in The MQL 1, machining services supplier shall conform to the quality management system (QMS) elements identified in Section 5. Slide 3 of 9

4 4.2 Machining Quality Levels (MQL) MQL 2 Machining Services Supplier The MQL 2 machining services supplier shall establish, document, implement and maintain a QMS in conformity with ISO 9001 with the addition of the QMS requirements defined in Section 5 as listed in Table 1. The MQL 2 machining services supplier shall procure raw material and outsource services only from suppliers specified by the customer requesting MQL 2 machining services. Qualification to MQL 2 also qualifies a machining services supplier to MQL 1. Slide 4 of 9

5 4.2 Machining Quality Levels (MQL) MQL 3 Machining Services Supplier QMS Requirements A MQL 3 machining services supplier shall establish, document, implement and maintain a quality management system in conformity with API Spec Q1 with the addition of the QMS requirements defined in Section 5 as listed in Table 1. An exclusion to API Spec Q1, Section 5.8 is not permitted. The MQL 3 machining services supplier may perform or procure, from approved service suppliers, raw material and/or services such as machining, material testing, NDE, heat treatment, plating coating and welding. Sub-supplier approvals are subject to the limitations of Section 6. Qualification to MQL 3 also qualifies a machining services supplier to MQL 2 and MQL 1. Slide 5 of 9
