Basic Elements of Effective Quality Management System
Some essential elements of an effective and efficient quality management system are as follows:
Standard Operating Procedures: One should be prepared with SOPs, manuals, forms and templates. All of which can be used immediately as the system runs. Templates and forms should be used for the purposes of record keeping which the staff can routinely follow.
Documentations: This involves classifying, defining and approving of several kinds of documents. Master or technical and quality file documents which are needed to create for building up an effective quality management system for the manufacturing sites. The process starts with defining different types of documents before their classification and needs to be required for approvals. Last but not the least; one needs to retain the documents to understand them.

Procedures are created that describes the categorisation of the deviations between production, quality improvements, audit, customer complaints, technical deviations and environmental, health and safety deviations. The procedures should even describe the management responsibilities of initiating deviation, analysis, capturing data and determination of assignable cause/s, investigation, generating of management reports as well as initiatives to be taken for the corrective and preventative actions.
