Annual Quality Survey Report
• Identifies Document Control as the most difficult clause to implement...
• And the most difficult clause to maintain.

Step 1 in Building an Effective System Is:
To Have Good Documentation!
![Page 5: Document Control · Documents of External Origin Control these by having a section on your master list for documents of external origin. Include: –Document Name –Current Revision](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/5e94d5fd31f52b0a443c0e7a/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Copyright ©2018 Standards-Stores.com
Good Documentation is:
Clear
Concise
User friendly
![Page 6: Document Control · Documents of External Origin Control these by having a section on your master list for documents of external origin. Include: –Document Name –Current Revision](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/5e94d5fd31f52b0a443c0e7a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

Avoid Drowning in Detail…..
“The purpose of this procedure is to document the aforementioned activities, herin after referred to as the prescribed tasks in terms that preclude their execution in an inconsistent manner, wherin such inconsistency may potentially result in the prescribed tasks delivering a result that is not repeatable or reproducible”
![Page 7: Document Control · Documents of External Origin Control these by having a section on your master list for documents of external origin. Include: –Document Name –Current Revision](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/5e94d5fd31f52b0a443c0e7a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

And poorly written procedures • Why use ten words when one will do?
“The items hereinunder referenced in some cases fell excessively outside normal parameters.”
“The procedures contained herin are applicable to all operations in the following departments within their functional ambit”
![Page 8: Document Control · Documents of External Origin Control these by having a section on your master list for documents of external origin. Include: –Document Name –Current Revision](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/5e94d5fd31f52b0a443c0e7a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Copyright ©2018 Standards-Stores.com
Make procedures user friendly
Use short sentences starting with a verb.
Avoid using the passive voice. Make it clear who is performing the task.
Use white space for easy reading.
![Page 9: Document Control · Documents of External Origin Control these by having a section on your master list for documents of external origin. Include: –Document Name –Current Revision](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/5e94d5fd31f52b0a443c0e7a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Step 2: Have the Right Amount of Documentation
But how much documentation do I need?
![Page 10: Document Control · Documents of External Origin Control these by having a section on your master list for documents of external origin. Include: –Document Name –Current Revision](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/5e94d5fd31f52b0a443c0e7a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Copyright ©2018 Standards-Stores.com
Avoid Creating too much:
Work instructions written for virtually everything
Overlap and repetition - Including a process in more than one work instruction.
Ask yourself: Will it really Impact Customer Requirements?
Or…
![Page 11: Document Control · Documents of External Origin Control these by having a section on your master list for documents of external origin. Include: –Document Name –Current Revision](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/5e94d5fd31f52b0a443c0e7a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Copyright ©2018 Standards-Stores.com
Too little:
Lack of work instructions where the process affects the quality of the product.
Employees have their own way of performing processes
There is variation in the process because it is not well documented
![Page 12: Document Control · Documents of External Origin Control these by having a section on your master list for documents of external origin. Include: –Document Name –Current Revision](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/5e94d5fd31f52b0a443c0e7a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Copyright ©2018 Standards-Stores.com
Documentation: The right amount
Remember that the goal here is consistency for your processes.
If two trained employees were to perform this task, would they do it the same way?
If the answer to this is “Maybe not” a work instruction is appropriate.
![Page 13: Document Control · Documents of External Origin Control these by having a section on your master list for documents of external origin. Include: –Document Name –Current Revision](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/5e94d5fd31f52b0a443c0e7a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Copyright ©2018 Standards-Stores.com
Step 3: Outline Your Document Control System
![Page 14: Document Control · Documents of External Origin Control these by having a section on your master list for documents of external origin. Include: –Document Name –Current Revision](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/5e94d5fd31f52b0a443c0e7a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Outline document control system
![Page 15: Document Control · Documents of External Origin Control these by having a section on your master list for documents of external origin. Include: –Document Name –Current Revision](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/5e94d5fd31f52b0a443c0e7a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Clarify Your Terminology: Procedure: Describes the process.
Work Instructions: Tells how to perform the process.
Attachment: Information attached to the procedure to help clarify the procedure.
Forms, Tables, etc.: Places to record the results of tests, audits, etc.
Procedures describe an overall process such as "Purchasing", where as work instructions would describe a more detailed portion of the procedure such as "Completing a PO" or "Ordering supplies".
![Page 16: Document Control · Documents of External Origin Control these by having a section on your master list for documents of external origin. Include: –Document Name –Current Revision](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/5e94d5fd31f52b0a443c0e7a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Copyright ©2018 Standards-Stores.com
What Will You Control?
• Procedures • Work Instructions • Forms • Attachments
• External Docs: Customer Drawings
• Prints • Drawings • Routers/Traveler
![Page 17: Document Control · Documents of External Origin Control these by having a section on your master list for documents of external origin. Include: –Document Name –Current Revision](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/5e94d5fd31f52b0a443c0e7a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Step 4: Where will you keep
your documents?
![Page 18: Document Control · Documents of External Origin Control these by having a section on your master list for documents of external origin. Include: –Document Name –Current Revision](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/5e94d5fd31f52b0a443c0e7a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Planning Your Infrastructure
• ISO gives you the specs • You prepare your own blue print • You may choose:
– A simple word processing program. – An existing database program – A packaged document control software.
![Page 19: Document Control · Documents of External Origin Control these by having a section on your master list for documents of external origin. Include: –Document Name –Current Revision](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/5e94d5fd31f52b0a443c0e7a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

What Will be Best for Your Company?
Choose a system for your company based on: – Company size – Computer set-up and availability – Number of different processes performed – Rate of change for your processes or documents
![Page 20: Document Control · Documents of External Origin Control these by having a section on your master list for documents of external origin. Include: –Document Name –Current Revision](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/5e94d5fd31f52b0a443c0e7a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Copyright ©2018 Standards-Stores.com
Your company may need more than one type of system.
For example: – One for quality system documents, and – One for engineering documents
• These documents may be different enough to make it best to have two distinct systems.
