el test work are subject to error analysis, where applicable, prior to use in final design work. 13. Deviations from specified quality standards are identified and procedures are established to ensure their control. 14. Internal and external design interface controls, procedures, and lines of communication among participating design organizations and across technical disciplines are established and described for the review, approval, release, distribution, and revision of documents involving design interfaces to ensure structures, systems, and components are compatible geometrically, functionally, and with processes and environment. Design information transmitted across interfaces is documented and controlled. 15. Procedures are established and described requiring a documented check to verify the dimensional accuracy and completeness of design drawings and specifications. 16. Procedures are established and described requiring that design drawings and specifications be reviewed by the QA organization to ensure that the documents are prepared, reviewed, and approved in accordance with company procedures and that the documents contain the necessary QA requirements such as inspection and test requirements, acceptance requirements, and the extent of documenting inspection and test results. 17. Measures are provided that will ensure design changes, including field changes, are subject to the same design controls that were applied to the original design and are reviewed and approved by the organization that performed the original design unless the originating organization designates another responsible organization. 18. Measures are provided to ensure that responsible plant personnel are made aware of design changes/modifications which may affect the performance of their duties. 19. Procedures are established and described for design verification activities which ensure the following: a. The verifier is qualified and is not directly responsible for the design (i.e.,
