I would like to know what your opinions are regarding the implementation of a specific Document Change Request form as part of the SOP for control of documents as opposed to leaving it out.
I have worked with both in the past and I find that having a separate DCR form and therefore also a DCR log can sometimes equate to unnecessary work if for example the software used to manage the QMS already tracks these changes and requires review and approval, etc. The standard does not explicitly state the way in which we must comply with the requirement.
Perhaps this may vary according to the size/scale of the company/QMS and so on?
Looking forward to input!
