Procedure story · QMS-PRO-005
A two-minute change can follow the product for months.
A substitute additive arrives during a shortage. A control loop is left in manual after maintenance. A specification limit is edited by someone with access. The decision may be quick; the quality, customer and regulatory consequences are not. This procedure gives every material change one visible route from proposal to evidence-based closure.
Routine moves inside the approved operating envelope stay in normal operations. Anything outside it gets a change record before it takes effect, then screening within three working days.
02
Let impact set the route
The owner scores six dimensions. Totals set Low, Medium or High impact, while product, customer and critical-input rules can only move the level upward.
03
Make readiness a gate
Documents, training, master data, customer conditions and HSE interfaces must be complete. An incomplete pre-startup review stops the change; it is never signed subject to conditions.
04
Close on evidence
Effectiveness is read after 30, 60 or 90 days according to impact. The Quality Manager closes the record only after readiness, results, unintended effects and linked risks are complete.
