Product development - major updates occur once a year, generally in January or February. This includes updates to the Quality Manual Template, procedures and supporting materials.
Auditors like to see continuous improvement to your Quality System documentation. We aim to help you by refining the documentation through projects we have worked on throughout the year. Implementing these changes to your Quality Manual or Procedures provides evidence of this work for your next Audit.
We also provide new content we insert into the Template packages to you free of charge - for example this year we are working on training materials for Internal Auditor and Staff Training.
Minor improvements are not usually scheduled for release as an update unless they will help your business - such as better processes or flow-chart diagrams.
