Using Unit brief card

One-page card naming the unit path and first-sheet photo rule. Print it, pin it, photograph it. Resources are short on purpose so they survive a loud shift. Email print@ if you need a Word or PDF version for your QMS folder.

These cards interlink to unit paths and runs. Do not treat them as a substitute for commissioning. They are the memory aid after the press is running.

We have watched plants laminate beautiful SOPs that nobody reads at 05:30. A one-page card above the bay beats a binder in the office. Keep the language matching Makeready notes so leads and operators share words.

How to brief a custom card

Send the stock, unit path, and the one failure mode you care about. We will draft a short card and email it back. Prefered turnaround is two working days when power windows cooperate.

If your QMS needs a controlled document number, say so in the subject. We can leave a blank field on the card. We will not invent ISO theatre for a showcase brief. Operated by Astros Marketing (Pty) Ltd, Sunnyrock 1401.

Where cards go wrong

Cards fail when they try to cover five SKUs at once. Keep one failure mode. Update the card when the unit path changes. Photograph the pinned card once a quarter so you know it still exists.

Browse Units and Runs for the paths the card should point to. Email print@offsetprinter.co.za with Resource and the card name.
