Maintain a current list of suppliers together with their scope, classification, approval status and relevant quality information.
Responsible managers and subject-matter experts can quickly see which suppliers are approved, what they provide and where qualification or follow-up may require attention.
Not every supplier presents the same level of quality or product risk.
QraOne supports supplier evaluation, classification and approval so organisations can apply appropriate controls based on their own supplier policy and quality requirements.
Supplier requirements, purchasing specifications and supporting records can be maintained alongside the supplier, giving teams a clearer picture of the basis for qualification and approval.
Different supplier categories may require different evidence.
Keep relevant evaluations, agreements, certificates, specifications and other required supplier records connected to the supplier profile according to your organisation's established requirements.
This helps reduce manual checking and makes it easier to understand whether the information needed to support an approval decision is available and current.
Supplier approval is not a one-time activity.
QraOne helps teams manage scheduled supplier reviews and re-evaluations, including annual evaluation where required by the organisation's supplier controls.
Upcoming or overdue activities remain visible so supplier oversight does not depend on separate calendars or manually maintained trackers.
Supplier performance issues can lead to wider quality-system activities.
Relevant supplier records can be cross-referenced with quality processes such as nonconformities, CAPA, complaints or Supplier Corrective Action Requests (SCARs), helping teams maintain traceability between the supplier and the quality activity that resulted from it.
This provides a more complete view of supplier performance without separating supplier management from the rest of the QMS.
Keep qualification decisions, approvals, evaluations, required documentation and relevant quality history connected throughout the supplier relationship.
This gives responsible teams clearer oversight during routine supplier management and makes supporting evidence easier to retrieve during internal reviews, supplier audits and regulatory inspections.
