We are a multi division corporation with each division maintaining its own QS9000 certification. Our division keeps the formal quotation form that goes to the customer as a controlled document. The division that we originally got the core document system from has since uncontrolled this form. I tend to agree that it does not need to be controlled but wanted to bounce this off of the forum for some extended input. Thanks in advance, IP: Logged |

Steve, We have controlled the quote form itself, but treat the completed form as a quality record. Somewhat along the same lines as having an in-process inspection sheet that is controlled but becomes a record upon completion. ASD... IP: Logged |

I agree with Al. All forms should be controlled documents (4.5). Once completed they become a quality record and should be controlled as such (4.16). Jim IP: Logged |

I also agree. You might also want to do a Search here in the forums using the terms 'form' and 'control' and 'record'. See Doc_Matrix.pdf IP: Logged |

I agree with ASD, we have the same set up here, customer quote as a controlled document, once being used or reused will form part of our quality records, It help us to see the trend regarding quoting and other business indicators. IP: Logged |
