The quality plan should define:[1]
- Objectives to be achieved

- Allocation of responsibilities, authority, and resources
- Documented standards, practices, procedures, and instructions
- Audit programs at appropriate stages
- A documented change procedure as a process is improved
- A method for measuring the achievement of the quality objectives
