irvs,
I think the clue is in the other words used along with 'collect', ie; identify, index. There can be many kinds of obscure quality records in various departments that the person arranging the quality system would not be aware of. It requires some kind of a search, through the organisation, or through the documentation, to identify the need or the records themselves then, presumably, collect them together in one place and index them so as to make it easier to decide whether we have compliance to the clause.
