[enter-your-company-name-here] reserves the right to revise the conditions of this policy at any time by giving notice. Users are responsible for understanding or seeking clarification of any rules outlined in this document and for familiarising themselves with the most current version of this policy.

Inspecting and Testing

Purpose

The purpose of this procedure is to ensure that materials and products are inspected and tested for conformance or non-conformance before a product is released, used or installed.

Background

Documented procedures shall be established and maintained to ensure all materials and products used in the manufacturing process are inspected and tested prior to use and release.

Scope

This policy applies to the testing of materials and products used in the manufacturing process, including product received from suppliers, in-process product and/or final product.

Responsible Manager is responsible for:

  • Defining means of identifying the test status of received material, in-process product or final product
  • Ensuring materials and products are identified and/or segregated by status (e.g., tested/untested, conforming/non-conforming)
  • Ensuring the proper disposal of all materials and products failing inspection or testing

Manufacturing staff is responsible for:

  • Implementing testing procedures for all identified product and materials
  • Ensuring that test equipment is properly calibrated at all times and that the calibration status is current
  • Properly disposing of all materials and products failing inspection or testing with authorisation from the responsible manager

Quality Control is responsible for:

  • Ensuring all measurement and test equipment is calibrated as required
  • Maintaining inspection and test records

Definitions

“Responsible Manager” means the individual directly responsible for ensuring a high quality organisation by complying with policies or procedures.

Procedure

Inspection and Testing – General

  1. All products and materials used in the manufacturing process shall be identified and any required test criteria identified.  Inspection may be visual, functional, dimensional, specification or other.
  2. An inspection and testing sample plan shall be prepared, identifying number, frequency and type of test required.
  3. Identified products shall be tested and results recorded prior to release, use or installation.
  4. All incoming material and product shall be received in accordance with What do we do with Defective Product.  Received product and materials that do not pass receiving and/or testing shall not be released to manufacturing.
  5. Test records shall identify the test method, test criteria, result, test status and person conducting the test, at a minimum.
  6. Tested product and material shall be clearly labelled or segregated to differentiate it from untested or un-inspected product and material.  A tab, label, traveller, checklist, lot or other appropriate method may be used to document the status.
  7. Products and materials tested and found to be non-conforming must be clearly identified and placed in a specified area labelled for non-conforming material to avoid any mix-ups.  See What do we do with Defective Product.
  8. Personnel performing identified tests shall be trained on the equipment and test method.  Training records shall be maintained and the re-certification cycle identified.

Inspection and Test Records

  1. Records shall be maintained to provide evidence that the product has been inspected and/or tested.
  2. Records shall clearly show pass/fail status and defined acceptance criteria.
  3. Where required, inspection and test records shall accompany the unit/product until final release.
  4. Once product is released, inspection and test records shall be forwarded to Quality Control for document control.

Discussing and Identifying Customer Requirements (agreeing Scope)

Purpose

Agree on key deliverables in the customers requirements and document them

Background

  • Creating and agreeing on the REQUIREMENTS for a project is only part of the story (what the project is going to do – is the important part!)
  • It’s equally important to agree what the BOUNDARIES are of any undertaking and these must show what the project is NOT going to do.
  • These elements are bound together and are called the Project Scope Statement which details the project objectives, end-products (deliverables), and requirements.
  • The Scope must be agreed with all concerned, and used to create the project plan ‘baseline’. Once agreed, the scope sets the expectations of all stake holders so they are clear about what they are going to get when the project is finished.
  • The last thing we want is a disagreement at project hand over about what we have or haven’t done – and what was expected.
  • Many projects fail – not because Requirements were not met – but because of difference of opinion about what the project was to deliver.
  • Most projects are triggered by some form of requirements document. These are central to success and lead to the project developing some form of functional specification against which the project outcome is designed. But not enough effort is spent getting a joint agreement on these documents, and that is where a scope planning and scope development play a key part.
  • “Scope creep” is seen as an industry-wide evil, instead as being viewed as the natural corollary to change control.
  • There is a little-known technique that beats all others hands-down for laser-focussed scope planning and development.
  • It’s this. At the very beginning of project planning, agree what the end-product along with the major products are to be.

Scope

[e.g. who will this apply to]

Procedure

  • Project Objectives – what the project is to do. These should be quantified and measurements agreed. Typically the measurements will include one or more of, cost, time scale, quality, or business benefits.  You will have heard of the SMART acronym for each objective: Specific, Measurable, Accurate, Realistic and tangible, Time bound (time frame plus date).
  • Deliverables (End-Products). Each should have a Product Description written. This contains descriptions of the purpose, composition, derivation, and the quality criteria for it to be acceptable to the customer.
  • Requirements. This is a specific skill, almost certainly done by specialist team, the customer, users, etc. But it is the responsibility of the project manager to make sure they are captured and agreed. Requirements quantify and prioritise the wants, needs and expectations. They may also describe some aspects of functionality of the project deliverables.
  • Project Boundaries. Care must be taken here. This should focus on what is to be excluded from the scope in terms of requirements, objectives, and deliverables. It’s a good idea to create a draft boundary document and circulate it for comments. Or perhaps generate the document from within a meeting with key stake holders.
  • Product Acceptance Criteria. This should document the WHAT and the HOW that will be carried out as part of agreeing successful project closure. It must be the Customer/Users perspective. The actual criteria used can be taken from a wide choice of aspects, and may include elements such as ease of use, reliability, operating costs, performance data, etc.  This should also include HOW the objectives, deliverables and other outcomes of the project are to be approved.
  • Constraints. All projects have constraints – often put there by humans – sometimes by the rules of physics!  A constraint is anything which impedes the project team’s work. The obvious choices may include, time, cost, quality, key milestone dates or logistics, standards, procedures, directives, compliance, legal and law, health and safety, technology, etc.  Whatever. Get them down and agreed – then plan accordingly.
  • Assumptions. In a nutshell, anything you believe to be true. Do not use this section to capture a load of disguised risks (although stated assumptions may lead to generated risks). Documenting them at the start of a project helps test these assumptions and get them agreed.  Should these assumptions prove to be false at a later date, these captured statements can be used as a basis to plan and manage the way forward.
  • Project Organisation. Well, as it is initially – it is likely that changes may be necessary to the roles and responsibilities assigned to individuals.
  • Initial Risks. Any known risks at this time. It is helpful to include an initial risk analysis so that readers can get a ‘feel’ for each risk.
  • Milestones. These may be externally dictated and/or internally created as a result of planning by the project manager. Be sure to have them represent significant points of achievement (or key decision points such as an end-stage assessment).
  • Funding Limitations. This is different to cost constraints. It refers to the availability of money to finance the project, and this may have an impact on cash flow. It may state key dates when funds are available, these may be dictated by certain completion criteria, and it also state the amount of funds released at a given point.
  • End Product Description. This should include the quality criteria for the product to be acceptable for the customer/user.
  • Specification Document. This is usually derived directly from the Requirements document. It is usually highly detailed and created by the specialist team along with input from the customer and users.

Confirming Scope of Order

Purpose

To process orders in requirement with the customers orders

Background

This procedure may or may not be necessary as a separate procedure for your business…  You should always have some checking mechanism to ensure that customers orders are processed accurately and according to requirements.

The degree of emphasis you place on this procedure will vary according to your product value and processes.  For ideas refer to the process for tenders and quotes for large orders.

Identifying Root Causes when things go wrong

Background

Proper root cause analysis identifies the basic source or origin of your problem. Root cause analysis is a step by step approach that leads to the identification of a fault’s first or root cause. Every system, equipment, or component failure happens for a reason.

There are specific succession of events that lead to a failure. A root cause analysis investigation follows the cause and effect path from the final failure back to the root cause.

Physical Inventory

Purpose

This purpose of this procedure is to provide guidance for [enter-your-company-name-here] and its subsidiaries regarding the need to take regular physical inventories of the Company’s raw material, work in process, finished goods, and stores inventories.

[enter-your-company-name-here] uses various types of inventory in the course of its business. Maintaining adequate controls over inventory is important to ensure proper balance sheet valuation and recognition of cost of products sold.

Additionally, a physical inventory provides the Company with an opportunity to maintain the accuracy of its perpetual inventory records

Background

This procedure assures that one un-audited semi-annual and one audited annual physical inventory should be taken of raw materials, work in process, and finished goods.

Procedures should ensure that all physical inventory results are summarised, discrepancies are investigated, and necessary adjustments are recorded to adjust the balances on the Company’s records to reflect the results of the physical inventory.

Cycle counts or other periodic verifications can be used in place of an inventory, as long as they provide for the counting of all groups of inventory at least once during the year.  In the event a business elects to utilise cyclical counts in lieu of a complete inventory, the business is required to request and receive approval from the Accountant.

The taking of a physical inventory must be properly supervised and controlled by the Accounting department.

At least one physical inventory should be taken in close proximity to year-end and coordinated with the independent external auditors’ mutual agreement.

Scope

Accounts covered by this procedure include Raw Materials, Work in Process, Finished Goods, and Stores Inventory.

Procedure

The following procedures are intended to assist the business in applying this procedure. The procedures are not intended to address specific control activities applied by the business or statements of operating procedures.

The intent is to provide supporting guidelines to assist operating units in developing necessary activities to ensure that the procedure is understood and being followed.

ANNUAL PHYSICAL INVENTORIES

The physical inventory should be supervised and controlled by members of the business, Accounting and Operations management teams.

Normal operations may need to be significantly or temporarily suspended.

Instructions to participants, who are involved in the physical inventory process, should be in writing and include:

  • Location, date, and start time.
  • Team designation and rolls of key team members.
  • Assignment of teams to specific areas.
  • Detailed instructions including examples on how to complete the recording of the physical counts.
  • Guidance on how to designate suspect inventory for later review as to obsolescence, damage, or scrap.
  • Identification of inventory designated as customer property awaiting shipping instructions (in cases in which the inventory is physically segregated).

Inventory should be maintained in a manner that facilitates physical counting and should be conducted by personnel who are familiar with the inventory being counted.

In cases in which a second team recounts inventory, the recount should be promptly reconciled to the initial count and all differences reconciled.

All sheets or tags used during the physical count should be accumulated and accounted for before completion of the inventory of a specific area.  A process, such as sequential numbering, should be utilised to assure all physical inventory documents are accounted for.

PERIODIC PHYSICAL INVENTORIES – CYCLE COUNTS (STORE ROOM)

Periodic counts must cover all inventories at least once during the year.  They may be more frequent at the discretion of the business Controller.

Perpetual inventory records must be up to date.

INVENTORY NOT ON COMPANY PREMISES

In cases in which Company owned inventory is in transit or otherwise not in the Company’s physical possession it should be verified through the use of existing records that can be reviewed and used to authenticate its existence either through physical measurement at a later date or through some other independent source.

This alternative independent source includes comparing perpetual inventory records received from the company storing the inventory to the business’s own perpetual records.

PROPER IDENTIFICATION OF INVENTORY OWNERSHIP

If practical, all inventory that is being held for customers should be clearly identified in the inventory records and physically segregated.

In cases in which customer owned inventory is co-mingled with Company owned inventory, the physical inventory should count all product on-site.

As part of the reconciliation process, the count should be compared to the total quantities in the perpetual records, thus validating Company owned and Customer owned perpetual quantities as a common group of product.

RECONCILIATION OF PHYSICAL AND PERPETUAL RECORDS

The physical inventory quantities should be reconciled promptly with the perpetual records.  A recap of differences should be developed showing the inventory item, the amount on the perpetual records, the amount counted, the unit difference, and the dollar value of the difference.

The perpetual inventory records should be adjusted for significant variances as compared to the physical quantities counted.

All differences are investigated.

Items that were identified as questionable value should be reviewed and adjusted to reflect their realisable value.

The Accountant should be advised of differences that result in adjustments to the inventory values on the business’s books.

APPLICABLE EXTERNAL GUIDANCE

The need to take physical inventories on a regular basis is based on sound business sense and the need to assure that assets reported on a company’s balance sheet are supported by the existence and control of those assets by the Company.

Product Storage

Purpose

The purpose of this procedure is to ensure that stored product and materials are not damaged or altered prior to use or delivery.  Storage procedures apply to product and material from initial receipt until final shipping and delivery.

Background

Only designated storage areas shall be identified and used to prevent damage or deterioration of the product pending use or delivery.

Scope

Applies to product and materials while on company property during manufacturing, warehousing and shipping.
