## QMS Implementation Workflow

Implement ISO 13485:2016 compliant quality management system from gap analysis through certification.

### Workflow: Initial QMS Implementation

1. Conduct gap analysis against ISO 13485:2016 requirements
2. Document current state vs. required state for each clause
3. Prioritize gaps by:
   - Regulatory criticality
   - Risk to product safety
   - Resource requirements
4. Develop implementation roadmap with milestones
5. Establish Quality Manual per Clause 4.2.2:
   - QMS scope with justified exclusions
   - Process interactions
   - Procedure references
6. Create required documented procedures — see [Mandatory Documented Procedures](#quick-reference-mandatory-documented-procedures) for the full list
7. Deploy processes with training
8. **Validation:** Gap analysis complete; Quality Manual approved; all required procedures documented and trained

> Use the Gap Analysis Matrix template in [qms-process-templates.md](references/qms-process-templates.md) to document clause-by-clause current state, gaps, priority, and actions.

### QMS Structure

| Level | Document Type | Example |
|-------|---------------|---------|
| 1 | Quality Manual | QM-001 |
| 2 | Procedures | SOP-02-001 |
| 3 | Work Instructions | WI-06-012 |
| 4 | Records | Training records |

## Document Control Workflow

Establish and maintain document control per ISO 13485 Clause 4.2.3.

### Workflow: Document Creation and Approval

1. Identify need for new document or revision
2. Assign document number per numbering convention:
   - Format: `[TYPE]-[AREA]-[SEQUENCE]-[REV]`
   - Example: `SOP-02-001-01`
3. Draft document using approved template
4. Route for review to subject matter experts
5. Collect and address review comments
6. Obtain required approvals based on document type
7. Update Document Master List
8. **Validation:** Document numbered correctly; all reviewers signed; Master List updated

### Document Numbering Convention

| Prefix | Document Type | Approval Authority |
|--------|---------------|-------------------|
| QM | Quality Manual | Management Rep + CEO |
| POL | Policy | Department Head + QA |
| SOP | Procedure | Process Owner + QA |
| WI | Work Instruction | Supervisor + QA |
| TF | Template/Form | Process Owner |
| SPEC | Specification | Engineering + QA |
