Implementação de um organismo de certificação designado para o processo de homologação de equipamentos de telecomunicações

Abstract

In a world more and more globalized, where products from several parts of the world are acquired and exported with relative easiness, it is verified the increasing necessity to create standards for the production of these products. This will propitiate the competitiveness of the national production in the internal and external markets, reducing the costs with the production and protecting the consumer. This work has as principal objective to present a quality manual that can be useful as a script to be followed by all organisms that wish implement and operate product certification systems for utilization in telecommunications and, as well, for the engineer to understand how this system works in Brazil. The elaboration of the manual is based on three points: first, the historical process of formation of the Technological Pole in the region of Santa Rita do Sapucaí, in south of Minas Gerais state, as a singular experience of school-company integration, configuring their possibilities and perspectives of implantation of a market economy in the country. Second, in the rules and relative procedures for the certification and to the telecommunication product approval. Third, in accompaniment of the certification process of a product used in telecommunications, which will serve to identify the main points of the quality manual of the certifier organism. From these three points it was possible to elaborate the quality manual for an Authorized Designated Organism (ADO) to work in Santa Rita do Sapucaí, a city located in a region considered a Cluster of technology and recognized as having a Local Productive Arrangement (LPA). The work becomes important as it aims to bring contributions from a Designated Certified Organism for a technology polle, indicating all phases of the implementation process of a quality system for an (ADO).
