Quality Manual

The Quality Manual section holds the three statements the laboratory's quality system rests on, and how often management reviews it.

Navigation: Settings → Identity & Accreditation → Quality Manual

Fields

The three texts are free-form: you write your own wording, not a choice from a list. These are the texts an assessor reads when they ask "what is your policy".

The review frequency

The field is not a calendar reminder. It defines the §8.9 cycle the system tracks:

• Filled in — the laboratory states how many months between reviews, and a review that runs late becomes visible.
• Blank — no cadence is enforced. Choose it deliberately: it means nobody will remind you that the time has passed.

Notes

• The impartiality commitment here is the laboratory's declaration. The individual annual conflict-of-interest declarations are kept per person, on Users.
• The reviews themselves are recorded in Management Reviews.
