Exclusion of unnecessary procedures

Answer:
Depending on your processes, some of the requirements of the standard won't apply to your organization. Since you don't have warehousing as a process, you may exclude this procedure from your QMS documentation.
But, production procedure can't be excluded because it doesn't refer only to the production processes, but also to service provision processes and this is something that your company does. It wouldn't be called "Procedure for Production" but "Procedure for Service Provision" and here you need to describe how your service provision process is carried out, who is responsible for which steps in the process, what resources and additional documents and records are used, etc.
On the other hand, I would suggest you consider exclusion of the following clauses of the standard since they probably don't apply to your quality management system:
- 7.1.5 Monitoring and measuring resources
- 8.3 Design and development
- 8.5.3 Property belonging to customers or external providers
