Re: My Attached Document Control Procedure
Aside from the (expected) minor typos, I did notice the duplicate paragraphs 5 and 6...
Other than that, I personally think that the text clarifies what the diagram does not specify, so in my opinion I wouldn't give up completely on the current format, but it is still your document to use.

A couple of things I noticed - as Gman pointed out, section 6 is a duplicate of section 5.
Section 7.1 calls for a review of controlled forms annually, but 7.5 and 7.6 call for a review of work instructions and drawings on an 'as-needed' basis. These should (IMHO) be included in the annual review as well, since they are controlled documents as well.
Without knowing the size of your company, I would recommend that you 'spread the responsibility' for documents a little bit. Right now you have the QA manager responsible for everything - let the various department heads take responsibility for their own documentation (especially reviews), with QA acting as the gatekeeper.

I appreciate the input. I am going to post my quality manual soon. I think some of you will kind of like it.
Anyway about the procedure, at this point the only reason a procedure would change is if I knew about it. I am ONLY writing six procedures and a very limited number of work instructions. I have never found them to be value added in any way, they are just printed and left to gather dust everywhere I have been. Now for the areas that NEED work instructions we have them but they are few and far between. I am desiging forms with the "instructions" built in for the most part, and the in-between we handle with training and experience. Thats kind of why I left them ass needed.
Again, thanks for looking.
I cant wait to see what eveyone here thinks of the new manual (good or bad)!
