What is Document Control in Quality Management?

Document control is a systematic approach to ensure the integrity of documented information by implementing standard protocols for its review, approval, routing, and revisions. Crucial for effective quality management, document control assures that accurate and updated information is accessible to quality assurance professionals where and when it is needed.
Many regulatory standards, including ISO 9001, classify documents, records, SOPs, and other formats containing quality-related information as ‘documented information’ and mandate its systematic management. Document control software ensures that all documents, such as policies, Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), work instructions, and records, are appropriately managed, audit-ready, and compliant with the industry-specific regulatory framework.

The Document Control Workflow: From Document Creation to Retention

Document Creation

Creating or importing a new document initiates the document control workflow. A robust document control software offers a centralized repository to create, manage, and store all quality documents in one place. Users can add metadata columns and content types or create different libraries and folders to classify and retrieve documents at the time of need.

1

Document Distribution

Efficient document distribution is crucial to ensure that clear instructions and guidelines are accessible to the cross-functional teams working. BizPortals document control software, while facilitating seamless document sharing, allows users to add role-based permissions to the documents, eliminating unauthorized access and security breaches.

2

Document Review and Approval

Once the document is uploaded, a predefined workflow is added to it to automate its review, approval, and reapproval after possible modification. The document control software built on SharePoint offers a secure environment for efficient document routing while allowing users to add multiple approvers, attach comments and files, and set email notifications and alerts to reflect the approval status.

3

Document Revision and Version Control

Document revision ensures that the information is updated, validated, and is aligned with the quality process and is compliant with the regulatory guidelines. BizPortals document control allows users to easily track who made changes in the document, when, and what. It eventually fosters accountability, prevents accidental overwrites, and ensures the user’s ability to review or restore previous changes if needed.

4

Document Archiving

Securely retaining documents for compliance and historical purposes marks the last stage of the document lifecycle. Users can create dedicated archive libraries to store incidents, deviations, CAPA, and other quality-related documents in accordance with industry regulations and internal policies. This helps users optimize storage, improve document traceability, and contribute to process improvement.
