Dear All,
I need a clarification on outsource process for one of my Government client having head office and various site offices.
One of the site offices (Site 1) is now going for ISO 9001 certification. There are two processes which were not carried out on that site, however one of the processes is being carried out by another site and one of the processes is being carried out at head office. Following are the details of these processes.
1. Contracts and Material Management ? This activity is being carried out at another Project site (Site 2), as the site (Site 1 ? under certification process) is small and material requirement is not much.
Present system ? Site 1, prepares technical specification, prepares indent, get it approved by competent authority and send it to Site 2 for tendering process. After the bids are received, the technical bid is being evaluated by Site 1 and the bidders who qualifies will be informed to Site 2. Now Site 2 opens the commercial bid and award the purchase order to the lowest. Depending upon the criticality of the product, Site 1 will inspect the product (e.g at in-process, final stage at supplier site and after the receipt of material at Site 1, the material will be inspected).
2. Design and Development ? This activity is being carried out at head office (Site 3), as the full fledged centralised design department works at head office.
Present system ? Site 3 sends the design output for Site 1, and in case there is any mismatch in drawing and physical position at site, the same will be communicated to Design department and the design output will be then modified accordingly. Once the design output matches with the physical condition the same will be implemented. But there is no formal verification system at Site 1.
Please clarify following.
1. Whether Contracts and Material Management and Design and Development is outsourced?
2. In case yes, then how the controls to be mentioned in Manual?
3. In case no, then how the address the implementation in Manual?
However control on Contracts and Material Management can be easily mentioned but there is no design and development activities.
Kindly help me to resolve the situation.
Regards
Ajay
