1 Identify the change

The first step is to identify the change and its scope, objectives, and rationale. You need to understand why the change is necessary, what it aims to achieve, and how it affects your QMS. You also need to determine the type of change, whether it is a minor, major, or emergency change, and the level of risk and complexity involved.

Evaluating the impact of a change in your quality management system typically involves the following steps: 1. Define Objectives: Clearly outline the goals and objectives of the change, such as improving product quality, reducing defects, or increasing customer satisfaction. 2. Key Performance Indicators (KPIs): Identify specific KPIs that will help you measure the impact of the change. These could include metrics like defect rates, customer complaints, or process efficiency. 3. Baseline Measurement: Collect data on the identified KPIs before implementing the change. This serves as your baseline for comparison. 4. Implement the Change: Make the necessary adjustments to your quality management system.

2 Assess the impact

The next step is to assess the impact of the change on your QMS and its components, such as your quality objectives, policies, procedures, processes, resources, roles, responsibilities, records, and documents. You need to identify the potential benefits and drawbacks of the change, as well as the opportunities and threats it may create. You also need to evaluate the impact of the change on your customers, stakeholders, suppliers, and regulators, and how it may affect their satisfaction, expectations, and requirements.

Next steps: 5. Post-Implementation Data Collection: After the change is in place, continue to collect data on the same KPIs to track any changes or improvements. 6. Analyze Data: Compare the post-implementation data to the baseline data. Look for trends, improvements, or any deviations from the expected outcomes. 7. Stakeholder Feedback: Gather feedback from relevant stakeholders, including employees, customers, and suppliers, to understand their perception of the change. 8. Root Cause Analysis: If the impact is not as expected, perform a root cause analysis to identify the reasons behind the results.

3 Plan the implementation

The third step is to plan the implementation of the change and its integration with your QMS. You need to define the actions, tasks, timelines, deliverables, and resources needed to execute the change. You also need to assign the roles and responsibilities for managing and monitoring the change, and establish the communication and feedback mechanisms to inform and involve the relevant parties. Moreover, you need to plan the verification and validation activities to ensure the change meets the intended outcomes and complies with the applicable standards and regulations.

4 Monitor and review

The final step is to monitor and review the progress and performance of the change and its impact on your QMS. You need to collect and analyze the data and information related to the change, such as the indicators, metrics, reports, audits, inspections, tests, and feedback. You also need to compare the actual results with the expected results, and identify any gaps, deviations, or issues that may arise. Furthermore, you need to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of the change and its contribution to your quality improvement and customer satisfaction.

By following these steps, you can evaluate the impact of a change on your QMS and ensure that it is aligned with your quality goals and strategies. You can also use the results of your evaluation to identify the lessons learned and the best practices for future changes.
