IBC / drum handling and lifting system: URS and qualification document flow

The User Requirement Specification is the first document in the qualification set, and the one every later verification traces back to. Pharma4i generates the URS today. The rest of this flow is shown so the scope is clear; those documents are marked Soon and are not produced by the product.
