Field instructions

  • Use and baseline: Record current intended use, configuration and evidence basis.
  • Signal or change: Describe observed error, model/source/interface change or changed user reliance.
  • Affected requirements and risks: Identify what claims or controls might no longer be supported.
  • Impact and containment: Identify affected outputs/decisions and any temporary restrictions.
  • Evidence and retest: Specify targeted regression, source, permission and reviewer evaluation needed.
  • Monitoring owner and frequency: Name responsible roles and a risk-appropriate review schedule.
  • Incident / deviation / CAPA: Link the applicable procedure and actual investigation/action records.
