Probably the easiest way for sending new revisions of documents to the vendor is attaching a copy of document to the order.
Our Purchase departement usually follow this way.
Anyway, in addition, all technical documents addressed to the vendor are controlled like our quality system documents. For our Q.S. documents the controlled distribution is managed from quality assurance office that has a list of all documents and destinations so that when a new edition of controlled documents is issued the quality assurance office send a copy by mail to all internal and external destinations (vendors included).
For many years we asked to send back an acceptance feedback. Now we only advise the vendor that if we haven't feedbacks the technical documents are considered accepted
