How do you structure a SOP?
Always use a Standard Structure for your SOPs to ensure consistency. Of course we recommend using SOP software like Whale to create a standardized and brand friendly centralized repository. Adopt a consistent format that includes the following: Title: Descriptive and specific, reflecting the content clearly. Purpose: Why this SOP exists. Scope: Where and when this SOP applies. Responsibilities: Who is responsible for the execution of tasks. Materials and Equipment: What is needed to perform the task. Procedure: Step-by-step instructions to complete the task. Safety or Compliance Considerations: Any safety protocols or compliance issues to observe.
