We're a medical device maker with separate Regulatory and Quality Managers. We have a monthly Corrective Action review meeting, led by the President, to make sure that no Quality issues are getting insufficient priority and action from other departments. We're just transitioning into four senior-management (CEO/owner and President) meetings a year at which Regulatory Review is a key agenda item, along with other departments' reports. From a Regulatory perspective we'll talk about the results of our latest audits, and any operational regulatory issues with customers that amount to current strategic problems, but the primary agenda item for Regulatory and all of the other departments is upcoming strategic issues within the next two years, along with our budgets and plans for what we're going to do about them.

I'm working today on my Regulatory report for the meeting next week.

We conduct quarterly MRs. While our organization is small, we do have two facilities in the Southeast and one in the Northeast. So to streamline, we web conference in the management at the other sites.

I tried to do a MR via email last month and to say the least it was less than satisfactory. I was and still intrigued on how to make this work but breaking down paradigms will take some work. In today’s world I do not see why this wouldn't work. I am thinking maybe a Webinar, but my goal was to make it (MR Meetings) time friendly not so much as location friendly, if that makes sense. I still plan on pursuing it but again because of the problems with the last one it will be a tough road.:2cents:

Bob this is interesting. You got me thinking (uh oh). I'm not so crazy about the email because you lose the collaboration side of it (in companies that actually do care about mgt review and understand the real reason for it). But Sharepoint or a similar tool might not be a bad alternative for interim reviews, since people can comment and collaborate in that environment.

It's always good to remember that the standard does not dictate the frequency of the reviews, does not say it has to be a meeting, and does not say that all things have to be covered at the same frequency in the same venue. So maybe Sharepoint might work for say the discussion around the latest Customer Satisfaction data? Just a couple of thoughts. Cheers:bigwave:

Desara01,

I have never used Sharepoint and will look into that. Have you used it? Is it challenging for us less than IT level people? And of course the age old question all management asks, how much?:biglaugh:

How right you are. Well said. :applause:

Re Sharepoint, as I understand it, is bundled into more recent versions of microsoft. But, I do not know what the "free" functionality is (ok, it's microsoft - is it ever free?) I will have to defer to my colleagues on the pricing etc on this one... I just know it can be very useful. There must be other Sharepoint users out there... :bigwave:
