What are the elements of document control?
- Approval: an authorized person approves the document before use.
- Version: it is clear which document is current.
- Access: the document is reachable where the work is done.
- Change record: when, who and what changed.
- Archive: superseded versions are marked and withdrawn from use.
ISO 9001:2015 covers this in clause 7.5 under the heading “documented information”. See documented information and quality and ISO procedures.
