Document validation / authority - E-mail based approval system - Ideally MS Outlook

[AndyU]

I'm reviewing our procedure for making changes to a document ( Control Plan is a good example ) and would like some advice on using a e-mail based approval system. Ideally MS Outlook.
Any help would be great.

AndyU,

We used an Outlook based approval system for years and it always passed all audits.

Simple and perhaps free.

Andy - one of my favorite clients also uses Outlook as their
document approval "signature" as well as the distribution method; no complaints
from registrar auditors.

Only caution would be to make sure that all people who need access
to documents have access, either thru Outlook or some backup method.

Regards,

Brad
