Procedure management system implementing

This paper highlights the procedures, QA/QC, and database management system implemented by Tournigan to ensure a reliable and secure data set. The effective QA/QC by Tournigan also helped to establish that Pressed Pellet and Borate Fusion XRF are a more accurate assaying method compared to ICP. 

Many of the guidelines and regulations cited address the need to ensure procedures are current and accurate. This means that a procedure management system should be in place to implement and guide the development,... 

The purpose of your procedure management system is to define how you will consistently develop, review, approve, implement, maintain, and control your procedures. Describing your procedure managonent system in a written, administrative procedure is a recognized and effective way to clearly establish those instmctions. The procedure manag ent system is based on your available resources (human, technical, and financial) and the hazard potential of the processes involved. Remember, your objective is to achieve a safe, environmentally responsible, quality operation. 

The following is a general outline for developing procedures. A procedure project may be initiated because there are missing or out-of-date procedures. The first step in any procedure project is to design and implement a procedure management system, or to evaluate your current...

PREREQUISITES Procedure management system has been designed, reviewed, approved, and implemented. 

This chapter presents the basic requirements to access, review, approve, control, and maintain procedures. It also discusses the wide range of choices you have in selecting the level of control your plant needs and electronic document control methods that may he of assistance. Controlling the development, revision, and implementation of your procedures is an important part of your procedure management system (described in Chapter 3, How to Design an Operating and Maintenance Procedure Management System).

Existing coal mine safety production management system focused on a theoretical level, (Andrew Hopkins 1999) focused on the structures of the framework, the lack of safety production management system implemented in the production process, every aspect of the management process, methods, procedures, initiatives. 

A signed statement by management without its approval to the quality system documented policies and procedures will indicate that it is not committed to honoring the policies and procedures. Managers need to approve the documents within the quality system that prescribe activities for which they themselves are responsible. This serves to demonstrate that they agree with the manner in which the policy has been interpreted and are prepared to provide the resources needed to implement the documented practices. 

Develop specific process safety management systems. Working within the pian, the task groups will develop specific systems and procedures for implementing PSM. The Division A team will focus on its own operations, while (name s) group will direct its efforts toward the other divisions. 

By implementing a well-conceived waste management system, it is possible to contribute to resource conservation, for example, via recycling processes of used products. Chemical additives which have been introduced decades ago may consider being later hazardous substances and should therefore be substituted by non-hazardous chemicals. Within the last years, for example, policy tools have been developed to phase out these goods for special recycling procedures or safe disposal. 

A safety management system for implementing the prevention policy has been put into effect. The policy should include the organizational structure, responsibilities, practices, procedures, processes, and resources for determining and implementing the policy. 

Regular involvement, walk-around inspections, informal spot checks, and specific topical discussions by line management and staff can be used to ensure that chemical reactivity hazard management systems and procedures are actually being implemented and followed on a day to day basis. Questions should be raised if unexpected changes have been made or unusual circumstances are detected. 

The laboratory shall establish a policy and procedure and shall designate appropriate authorities for implementing corrective action when nonconforming work or departures from the policies and procedures in the quality management system or techiucal operations have been identified. The procedure for corrective action shall start with an investigation determining the root cause(s) of the problem. 

All quality system procedures and instructions are implemented to ensure effectiveness of the quality management system. To ensure continual improvement, facilities, equipment, and documents are reviewed and approved for implementation. The compatibility of the process with the production facilities and infrastructure is ensured to achieve product realization in compliance with the customer requirements. The implementation is achieved through ... 

Documentation plays an important role in the effective control and implementation of quality management system requirements. The quality policy, objective, and applicable procedures ensure to meet ... 

Therefore, if a leak-detection system has been installed to warn of releases of toxic or flammable materials from a plant, the implementation of a process safety management system should include the detection system as part of the process (CCPS 1989 CCPS 1988). In this manner the leak-detection system will be subject to the facility s management-of-change procedures, and changes to the leak-detection system, will be carefully evaluated before being implemented.

Internal and external audits will be examined, usually annually, to check that the quality system meets current needs and/or that the procedures arc being implemented. This formal process is known as management review.
