Usually not. PJR does not require that documentation changes or modifications be communicated in writing to PJR headquarters. The revisions are reviewed on-site at the next surveillance audit at no additional cost. PJR auditors allow continuous improvement changes to the Quality Policy Manual. However, the quality manual must be submitted 30-45 days before the initial audit so that the Lead Auditor can evaluate the manual and its adherence to the standard.
