      Suslin's lemma has been used to prove Serre's conjecture, but the lemma is nonconstructive. This article, which generalizes previous work of \textit{H. Lombardi} and the second author [J. Symbolic Comput. 39, 707--717 (2005; Zbl 1120.13034)], presents a new formulation for a particular case of Suslin's lemma, and uses it to describe a constructive algorithm for the Quillen-Suslin theorem. Two different proofs of the new lemma are given: one nonconstructive, and one constructive. The algorithm has been implemented in \texttt{MAPLE}, and several examples are computed for the reader.
