    Dear All,
    We are ISO 9001:2015 & 27001 certified establishment.
    At the moment we have two procedure for document control , my question is , is it the right way to manage our documents? or we should have one procedure for both.
    Best Regards,

    Control of documented information applies to:
    • those that your organization needs to "maintain" - i.e. documented information that support the operation of the processes (e.g. procedures, instructions, etc.;
    • those that your organization needs to "retain" - i.e. documented information that provide evidence of conformity with requirements (i.e. records)
    If ISO 9001 and 27001 need these documented information, they should be controlled. Both standards have the same outline or sections and both mention alignment and integration with the requirements of other management system standards. IMHO, you can simplify the approach by having one procedure covering the two systems.

    I agree with tony s, one procedure is enough.
