1. Penalty rules ambiguous. The penalty rules are not clear. Needs more
clarity.

It is important to establish a follow-up procedure to ensure that items on
the issue list have been properly corrected.
Review issue list provides the basis for the follow-up procedure to be carried
out. After the follow-up procedure, review issue list can be used to cross-check
the corrections made. Once all this is done and review findings are incorporated,
the quality of the system is ensured. This is how various techniques and procedures
may be used for delivering a quality system to the vendors.
