The true key is the need. Most quality procedures can in fact be contained in the QM. However, technical procedures such as equipment operation and so forth should be independent. Where there is an accepted Standard (e.g., ATSM), refer to it, and include detail only as needed to complete the requirements.
Thanks Hershal! Actual procedures such as cal procedures do not have a place in the QM. Those work instructions remain outside of the QM, while the management system related "shall have a procedure for _____" procedures remain in the QM in the appropriate section.

I appreciate the feedback. Have a great day.
