Customer Manuals

Scope​

Purpose: Every customer-facing document is kept in SharePoint and kept up to date. This process names who maintains each type of manual, so the current version is always easy to find. Published manual summaries also appear under Customer Manuals.

Owner: AM, as the designated Commercial Responsible for each customer.

Applies to: The designated Ethical Responsible, Technical Responsible, and Commercial Responsible for each customer, plus the technical teams.

Process​

  1. Ethical Responsible — Keep the ethics updates current. Store each ethics update for the customer in SharePoint.

  2. Technical Responsible — Maintain the technical manuals. Keep each technical manual for the customer current in SharePoint.

  3. Commercial Responsible — Maintain the commercial, logistics, and finance manuals. The Commercial Responsible is also the CRM owner for that customer.

  4. Manual owner — Move old versions to the OLD folder. Each owner moves the superseded file to a folder labelled "OLD" when a new version arrives.

    • Only the current version stays outside the OLD folder, so no one works from an old file.
  5. AM — Agree working methods with the technical team for each customer. Account managers and technical teams coordinate directly.

Workflow​

Ethical Responsible — Keep the ethics updates current
Technical Responsible — Maintain the technical manuals
Commercial Responsible — Maintain the commercial, logistics, and finance manuals
