Management Review Agenda and Minutes
Structured agenda covering every required input, with decisions and actions as outputs.
Purpose
Provides the agenda, input record, minutes and action log for management review so that every input required by clause 8.9.2 is presented with evidence and a conclusion, and every output required by clause 8.9.3 is recorded as a decision or action with an owner and date.
What it covers
- Inputs (clause 8.9.2)
- Outputs (clause 8.9.3)
- Action log
- Authorisation
How to complete it
- 1.The Quality Manager completes the 'Evidence presented' column for every input at least 10 working days before the meeting and circulates the pack.
- 2.During the meeting, record the conclusion and any decision or action for each input; items with no activity are recorded as 'none in period'.
- 3.Complete the outputs section explicitly - the four required outputs must each have an entry.
- 4.Transfer actions to the action log with owner, due date and verification method; carry forward open actions to the next review.
- 5.The chair approves the minutes within 10 working days.
Before you use it
- Replace every square-bracket token, starting with [LABORATORY NAME], [ADDRESS] and [EFFECTIVE DATE]. The full token list is in GD-01 Read Me First.
- Have the content technically reviewed against how your laboratory actually works, then approved by the responsible manager before it becomes a controlled document.
- Update the Word fields after editing so the table of contents and page numbers are correct: select all, then press F9.
- Record the document in your own document register and set its review date.
