1. Does it include a maintenance program?
2. If it does then include this in your quality management system.
3. If it does not then seek evidence of any product quality problems.
4. If the absence of a maintenance program affects product quality then work with your maintenance manager to design and implement a new process. Document this process to the extent necessary for its effective planning, operation and control (see 4.2.1d).
