API Monogram Advice
QSI assists companies in understanding how to use and maintain the API Monogram to minimize the risk of license suspension or cancellation:
- Ensuring that the application of the API Monogram is performed in accordance with API specified requirements (e.g., application at licensed address, advertisement, product catalogs, etc.)
- Providing proper work instructions for care of the API Monogram and its application
- Ensuring products are monogrammed in accordance with product specification requirements
- Maintaining the license during company acquisition, mergers and/or name changes
- Maintaining the license during company location moves
Product Specification Applications
Making an application to the API for attaining a product license is not as simple as many think. For starters, you must have a fully operational and implemented quality management system in place for at least four months. Among the other complexities is the number of documented procedures and records required by API Spec Q1, Spec Q2, and product specifications. Additionally, many ISO 9001-certified companies expect a simple transition from 9001 to Spec Q1 and Spec Q2, but nothing could be further from the truth.

QSI is well-versed in responding to any API audit findings you may encounter and helping you navigate the rebuttal process.
Assistance During License Suspension or Cancellation
