What should a buyer decide about Bottled Water Line Sample Retention Plan?

A retention plan defines which production samples are held, how they are identified and when they may be reviewed. It should match product, packaging, traceability and local quality requirements rather than create arbitrary storage.

Calculation or decision basis
Set sample type, lot basis, quantity, storage condition, identification, retention period, access, review triggers and disposal rule according to the approved quality system.
Required project inputs
Provide product and packaging risk assessment, lot definition, coding convention, storage capability, quality plan, customer requirements and applicable local rules.
Supplier response
Require the supplier to identify accessible sample points, container or coding data available from the line, reject segregation and equipment limitations affecting representative sampling.
Interface and ownership
Assign sample collection, labeling, storage, inventory, release decision, investigation access and disposal so retained samples remain traceable after the shift.
