Do you follow up on management action plans?
Rarely we should, in Norman Marks' view.
Mary Ann Khalil disagrees with that. In her view, what is not documented is not done.

In his opinion, we should give management some time to respond to our findings, sometimes maybe even up to six months. After all, we at times deal with very complex issues.
