Dear All,
Could you let me know if you will be available for the next STS meeting.
A major agenda item will be discussion of Workflow changes for the SOP/Risk Assessments where there are significant design modifications.
A recommendation from the recent Audit was:
i) Development of a proper workflow is recommended to track the design and approval process. A one-size-fits-all approach was recommended where variations can be added/subtracted to suit the project. It is also recommended to develop a framework/methodology moving forward that should be reviewed and vetted by the safety team once developed.
ii) To develop a system and procedures for documenting any major changes or modifications of plants/equipment/robots, reviewing the risks associated with such changes, and updating relevant risk assessment and control measures as appropriate.
How can ACFR best accommodate the need to document this process?
Cheers
David
