Do we need to make a new OFI (Opportunity for Improvement) for each document/form we update?

Good Morning!

We have almost everything completed in our ISO folder for our upcoming audit next month. My questions is do we need to make a new OFI for each document/form we update in our ISO folder? Ex: we updated our recruiting and on-boarding checklist, do we need to make an OFI for this or anytime a document is updated??

Which ISO standard are you doing? If it's ISO 9001:2015 is there a specific section you think requires this?

 

[Christinereed89]

We are using ISO standard 9001:2015. I'm not sure. I just wasn't sure if I am suppose to be creating an OFI for each ISO doc we update?

I wouldn't. If you have already updated the form, then what's the point? You system should allow simple updates and improvements without extra forms.

Assuming that "OFI" means Opportunity for Improvement, I don't know why you would want to do it retroactively. If an opportunity is identified, and the opportunity results in creating or updating a document, shouldn't the documenting of the opportunity come first?

That is why I asked - To clarify. I detest assumptions.

 

[Christinereed89]

Yes, however I am new to this so do we still need to make an OFI for an updated form?

 

[John Broomfield]

No

No

Thanks! So we only need tocreate an OFI form for major updates like a completely new and re-formed doc (sufficient major changes).
