Overview
This presentation on change control principles outlines the introduction of change and its proper management processes throughout the supply chain. This presentation highlights the importance of managing change in a controlled way. The document covers what is change control and references key ISO 22000 and FSSC 22000 clauses. It stresses the need to ensure that all departments and senior management are fully aware of the changes being made and all the risks that could become as a result of the change. It stresses that this is not a reactive process and change should be actively managed and planned before introducing any change in the supply chain. The document details different types of changes that could be encountered (product related, production process, premises and equipment, organization, subcontracted activities) as well as the different steps to take when a change in the supply chain is required.
This presentation provides useful information for suppliers to plan and manage change control processes.
