Study Notes
Design and Development Changes
- Organizations must identify, review, and control changes throughout the design and development phases to ensure conformity to requirements is maintained.
- A process needs to be established for notifying customers regarding changes that affect their requirements before implementation.
Documented Information Retention
- Documented information regarding design and development changes should be retained, including:
- Details of design and development changes.
- Results of reviews conducted on those changes.
- Authorization records for the changes.
- Actions taken to mitigate adverse impacts from changes.
Configuration Management Process
- Design and development changes must be controlled according to established configuration management process requirements.
- Measures should be implemented to control design changes for:
- Spare or replacement parts.
- Construction and fabrication drawings.
Review and Verification of Changes
- Revised design documents (calculations, drawings, stress reports) must be reviewed to ensure adherence to original design control measures.
- Design changes must be reviewed and approved by the same organization that originally approved the design or by other qualified entities.
- Cumulative effects of design changes (e.g., material substitutions) should be evaluated to confirm no negative impacts on performance, interchangeability, and qualification.
- Changes to licensed items should trigger updates in license drawings, specifically conforming to regulations like 10CFR71 or 10CFR72.
Compliance Involvement
- Ex authorized persons must be engaged in any changes related to manufacturers' documentation, quality management systems, or marketing documents that could impact Ex Product compliance, as per EN ISO / IEC 80079-34 standards.
