Only Three Questions?

QUESTION 1

When material is written off at your facility, does the write-off file include a complete trail - from original gate pass to every follow-up attempt to the final decision?

Yes - the full trail from dispatch to write-off is documentedThe gate pass and the write-off approval exist, but the follow-up trail in between is incompleteWe don't maintain a connected trail - the gate pass and write-off are separate records

QUESTION 2

Before material is written off, is there a defined minimum number of recovery attempts that must be documented?

Yes - a defined process with mandatory steps before write-off is permittedThere is a general expectation of follow-up, but no documented minimum requirementIt varies - depends on the value, the vendor, and who is handling it

QUESTION 3

If an auditor asked you today to produce every recovery action taken on your last 10 material write-offs, how long would it take?

Under an hour - it's all in one systemA few days - we'd have to pull from gate pass records, emails, and verbal recollectionsWe probably couldn't produce a complete picture
