Control of Organizational Knowledge QSP - using knowledge as a resource

We have added another quality system procedure to the ISO 9001:2015 Documents and Templates collection - Control of Organizational Knowledge,

QSP regulates the implementation of the ‘Control of organizational knowledge’ process, which aims at transforming the internally and externally sourced information flows into the Organization’s knowledge bank.

The process involves four stages:

• definition of the necessary knowledge; 
• creation of the organization knowledge bank; 
• maintaining and providing access to knowledge; 
• QMS processes improvement through acquired knowledge.
