Hi everybody. i KNEW someone here could help me with this:
In a previous life, i worked in automotive. All of our documentation, from ISO 9001:2000/TS down to our Level 3 work instructions were cross-ref'd in a matrix as being relative to 9 different processes, they were:
Management, planning, feedback, purchasing, manufacturing, calibrations, shipping, maintenance & contract review. See example attachment.
Can anyone tell me...are these 9 wide-ranging topics something my old place of employment thought up for themselves, to define their processes by (at the time we were being pushed to do LPA's from chrysler and the trend in ISO as well towards "process-based" audits)? Or, were these 9 exact processes promoted by APQP? Chrysler?
Just trying to find out where they came from...i am in the midst of developing a documentation system and I kind of like this philosophy. Would like to sell it to upper managment--but need the 411 on it to explain it well!
