Abstract:

This presentation covers general components of a PHA (deviation/guideword selection, development of causes & consequences, documentation of safeguards, recommendation/action item wording), and attributes of a project PHA that distinguish it from a brownfield revalidation PHA. The focus is a broad overview, not an in-depth instruction on conducting PHAs. The purpose is to provide PHA managers and teams with insights into how a PHA should meet various quality standards for both the session and the resulting documentation. It assists in reviewing internal PHAs to improve internal quality and also reviewing the work from 3rd party vendors to understand if they are getting a quality PHA?
