History – This is our company’s first PSO.
A question concerning documentation for element #9 “Parts Handling Plan”. On the right hand column of page one (Page #24 of PSO manual) of the “Parts Handling Plan” (PSO manual, Rev. 5.5, December 2006) there is a list of three documents. There are:
Parts Handling Plan
Material Handling Plan
Containment Record
I understand what the last two items are. My question is this: Is the Part Handling Plan a separate document? It sounds like it is. Page 48 of the PSO manual for element #9 (PSO checklist) lists all three as what I like to call “deliverables”. Where I am confused is that I thought that Parts Handling Plan was the sum of all the procedures that detail internal material handling operations. A poor analogy would be chapters in a book. The Containment Record, Material Handling Procedure, Packaging Instructions, Containment Procedures, etc. are the chapters and the Parts Handling Plan is the book.
Comments.
Thank you,
