Tracking info <\/h2>\n
\n

<\/strong>Tracking info is critical to keeping processes organized, and keeping track of changes in the organization.  A unique title will make an SOP more searchable for easier access.  Recording who a document was created by ensures that they can be reached if there are questions, concerns, or updates for any SOP.  When an SOP is altered, a note should be added explaining the reason for the change, along with the name of the person who revised it, and the date of the revision.  <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

    Purpose <\/h2>\n
    \n

    Teams work better when they understand the reason that they are performing each step of a task.  A brief, clear purpose will ensure that everyone not only understands the steps of any given task, but also the logic behind their actions.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n

    \n

    Procedures <\/h2>\n
    \n

    Procedures can be composed of a combination of forms, checklists, and descriptions that detail every step in completing a task.  They ensure consistency in quality, that every step required to complete a task has been performed, and that each task is being executed in an efficient manner.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
