  • 1.  Document Control Processes Best Practices

    Posted 08-28-2018 17:06
    Is anyone aware of a standards body, professional organization, etc. that has best practice, role-based process flow diagrams for Document Control available for download or purchase?

    Even better if they also incorporated document types by phase within a major capital project, handover and operating the asset subsequently.

    I have the process control framework for Petroleum upstream, and I know of USPI for a handover standard.

    Thank you

    Hi Ritch,

    Are you able to find information regarding document control? I am also looking for the same "best practice".

    Hi Jeffrey, 

    I don't do document control myself, but I'm aware of the discipline, and it's on my list at some point. That said, I did a search for "role-based process flow diagram for document control" and one of the first hits was this document from NIRMA: https://international.anl.gov/training/materials/6H/Gilbert/PDG02%20Documents%20and%20Records%20Process%20Description.pdf 

    NIRMA itself (Nuclear Information and Records Management Association) might be a good resource as well. https://www.nirma.org 

    Finally, a search for "document control" on Amazon might be fruitful - my search showed 5 books that might be relevant, and I have Dawit Kassa's book in my queue. 

    Regards,
