Document control of a QA department is meant to assure that all documentation for a project is in order so when the FDA or some other organization comes for an audit, for example, the company team is prepared to show they are abiding by their standards. With that being said, perhaps one thing that can be improved in order to make documentation less “strict” is for organizations to come together and compile one big standard record that international companies and smaller ones will have to abide by. This seems extremely unlikely since multiple organizations will have to combine, so a more viable solution will be one that takes place within the company it self. Perhaps expanding a QA/QS department will lighten the load on the department on whole; so, for a bit more investment dollars the company can have a faster process. Another possible solution would be for other departments to comply with the quality department so there is no conflict when information or protocols go between said departments.
