Standard for Preparing an Electronic Components Management Plan

The documented processes shall include a system for collection, storage, retrieval, analysis and reporting of all relevant data from the component, equipment design, equipment manufacturing and equipment use in service; and for keeping the data per customer or regulatory requirements.
Note: The data need not reside within the data system described. A relational approach may be used wherein the data system provides access to the data. For example, if the component qualification data is collected and stored by the component manufacturer, the equipment manufacturer's data system could consist of a process, software, and hardware to access that data through the component manufacturer's web page or other source, provided the access is available when needed. As another example, any data that is specific to a program, such as functional simulation results or thermal analysis data, could be accessible via a path through the program data. The Plan owner may wish to identify processes that were developed and documented for other initiatives, such as ISO 9000, QS 9000, or AS 9000, to satisfy this requirement.
