At present, our control of instruction manuals is bad to non-existant. Many are out of date and this needs to be addressed. I see two possibilities:
(1) Treat them exactly the same as controlled company documents.
(2) Treat them as products in their own right and control them that way.
In both cases a mechanism would be needed to ensure the manual gets updated with the product to which it refers.
A third suggestion has come from the software developers who say that manuals could be controlled under the software versioning system they use, however management don't like this suggestion.
I would be interested to hear how others approach this.
Thanks,
John.
