To all:
HELP, I have been reading the Cove forums and came several posts regarding writing a quality manual for a small startup company. I have just started been hired by a startup company in Pennsylvania. We are 1 Quality Engineer, 5 Directors, 4 Managers, 20 Design and Process Engineeers, and 5 employees. The operation is totally entrepreneurial with no documented quality system. My task is to put on several quality hats and quickly put together a quality system that is ISO compliant. We are a fabless wafer manufacturing operation. I will be the "Management Representative", the "Document Control Manager", the "Quality Manager".
Can you share a copy your quality manuals with me. I am looking for examples of the detail written into Level II docs (SOP) and Level II doc (Work Instructions). It seems like SOP and WI can often be rolled into one document. Am I missing a point of differentiation? It also seems a statement in the Quality Manual can suffice for an SOP. I fear that I am over simplifying. I have been reading the AMD quality manual and the example from Clinivation, Inc but still feel overwhelmed by the complexity of these documents as related to a small startup company.
Thanks,
