I am in the middle of rewriting my client's quality manual and I wanted to get your opinions about where is the best place to document the company's Quality Objectives.
Quality Objectives are directly referenced in sections 4.2.1.a, 5.1.c, 5.3.c, 5.4.1, and 7.1.a (among others I'm sure) and indirectly referenced in many other places. I have been reviewing the huge volume of example quality manuals publicly available and I don't see much consistency in where the actual management defined quality objectives are documented.
The best I can see is that there are two schools of thought:
I can see the benefits of both but I would like to hear some of your opinions.

The best I can see is that there are two schools of thought:
- Quality Objectives are listed in Section 5.4.1 of the Quality Manual (typical template).
- Quality Objectives are documented in a seperate document (eg. Appendix A1).
I can see the benefits of both but I would like to hear some of your opinions.
