Quality Manual Organization and Structure including Numbering

it is avery ggood what i need

SteelMaiden,i do not think we should listen to the auditor and use their language to drive QS improvement.we need to meet customers' requirement and ISO std.the auditor shall previde us vaule-added audit service.

Okay so I am in the process of writing our manual as we...well...type I guess. And it is much harder then it was 8 years ago when I wrote one for the company I worked for at the time. There are all these new fangled forms and things and COP's and MOP's and...why do I want cops and mops in my manual anyway??? LOL. I do enough mopping at home! Anyway it is really a learning process for me right now.:mg:

What ever happened to the simple Quality Manual that we started out with when ISO9001:2000 first came out? We seem to have complicated things too much.
I have seen a push from our external auditors to add more to the manual then is required by the standard. I think that this is a bad direction to go in.
I am resisting this but it may be a losing battle.
