Looking for honest opinions.
I just went through my first surveillance audit all by myself. We were a QS-9000 TE company moving towards ISO-9001:2000 registration in October. Anyway, the auditor gave me some great help. I still had a hard time letting go of the burden that QS brings. I was still focused a little to much at meeting the elements, not directly looking at the process approach. He stated that we could pass an ISO audit now, not a problem. However our Process map was very minimally compliant. So, I embarked on a journey of improving this system. I am in the process now of doing turtle diagrams for my key processes. Being that my company won't send me to any training, I have been reading on this site and searching the net to find out how to do this.
I am attaching my first turtle diagram for our Contract Review process. I would truly appreciate any comments / constructive criticism etc. as I have nobody here to help me and can't pay a consultant or take a training class (due to our every decreasing budgets).
Thanks,
M
