Overview
What this RAVS document does
A quality management system depends on competent people who understand their role and communicate effectively. A hiring client that configures this element wants to see that a contractor qualifies personnel, trains them, keeps records, and maintains internal communication on the quality system.
This document states your company's competence, awareness, and communication program in the structure an ISNetworld reviewer expects: the assignment of personnel, competence and training, awareness of the quality objectives, training records, and internal communication. It is written to a quality management standard. The file arrives in editable Word format - add your company name, confirm the company-specific details, and upload.

- Training delivered and its effectiveness periodically assessed
- Personnel aware of how their work contributes to quality objectives

- Internal communication on the effectiveness of the quality system
