I see in many companies documents with 'uncontrolled copy' stamped on it.
Which part of the ISO Standard is driving this? Is it not possible to circulate copies of documents as and when required, and simply state in your Documentation Guidelines that all documents have to be presumed to be uncontrolled and that if they want an original they have to go to the either the EDP server if it is a EDP file, or to the Drawing Cupboard if it is for example a hardcopy.
The alternative seems to be to stamp on the offending document 'Uncontrolled Copy', and the result is that theoretically nobody could or should work from such documents.
