Example

[edit]

6.0 RESOURCE MANAGEMENT

[edit]

6.1

[edit]

Executive management shall participate in all resource discussions, and shall make the final decision on all significant expenditures. Resource allocation considerations shall include, but are not limited to: time, personnel requirements, salaries, skill levels, outsourcing, material, processes, and any other factors required to ensure adequate resources are available to achieve customer satisfaction.

6.1.1

[edit]

Executive management shall consider data from corrective and preventive action, non-conformance reports, audit results, employee communications, management review activities, customer ratings, financial reports, and business conditions to determine resource requirements.

6.2

[edit]

Executive management shall meet at a minimum of once per month or more often, as business dictates, to discuss resource requirements. (See Agenda Check Sheet)


This is suitable for corporate documentation wikis that mainly use sections to represent paragraphs of outline-structured business procedures.

  • Yes Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.
