necessary, are controlled as per procedure for control of maintained documented information, PPTL/
SOP/QA/003.

Relevant quality documented information shall be retained in the PPTL reporting systems as evidence of
accomplishment of set objectives. This will be controlled as per procedure for control of retained documented

When creating and updating documented information PPTL has ensured:
• Identification and description (title, date and reference number) where applicable.
• Format and Media.
• Review and approval for suitability and adequacy.
7.5.3 CONTROL OF DOCUMENTED INFORMATION
7.5.3.1 Documented information required by PPTL QMS and by ISO 9001 Standard shall be controlled to ensure it is
available and suitable for use, where and when it is needed and is adequately protected from loss of confidentiality,
improper use and loss of integrity as stated in the SOP Number PPTL/SOP/QA/003.
7.5.3.2 For the control of documented information, PPTL has addressed the following:
• Distribution, access, retrieval and use.
• Storage and preservation, including preservation of legibility.
• Control of changes.
• Retention and disposition.
Documented information of external origin determined by the organization to be necessary for the planning and
operation of the QMS shall be identified as appropriate and controlled. Documented information retained as evidence
of conformity shall be protected from unintended alterations. The company controls QMS documentation to
ensure that correct documents are used as stated in detail in SOP Numbers PPTL/SOP/QA/003 and
PPTL/SOP/QA/004. We promptly remove all obsolete/invalid documents from all points of issue, therefore
preventing unintended use. Documents to be retained, and records of quality performance, are controlled,
maintained and protected. The company employs necessary controls to ensure that the latest copies of all
documentation relevant to the accomplishment of work are available at the time and place of work, thus
enabling the effective functioning of organization’s QMS.
