a) The availability of information that describes the characteristics of the
product,
b) The availability of work instructions and shop orders, as necessary,
c) The use of suitable equipment,
d) The availability and use of measuring and monitoring devices,
e) The implementation of monitoring and measurement,
f) The implementation of product release, delivery and post-delivery activities,
g) Accountability for all product during production (e.g.; parts quantities, split
orders, nonconforming product),
h) Evidence that all manufacturing and inspection/verification operations have
been completed as planned, or as otherwise documented and authorized using
shop orders,
i) Provision for the prevention, detection, and removal of foreign objects,
j) Monitoring and control of utilities and suppliers such as water, compressed
air, electricity and chemical products to the extent they affect conformity to
product requirements, and
k) Criteria for workmanship, is specified in the clearest practical way (e.g.;
written standard, representative samples or illustrations).
Planning shall consider, as appropriate
- Establishing, implementing and maintaining appropriate processes to manage
critical items, including process controls where key characteristics have been
identified,
- designing, manufacturing and using tooling to measure variable data,
- identifying in-process inspection/verification points when adequate
verification of conformance cannot be performed at later stages of
realization, and
- special processes (see 7.5.2).
