  • Distributor vs Supplier quality agreement

    Some of our products critical to the medical device are outsourced through the distribution chain. When discussing the Quality Agreement, do we ask for one from the distributor or the actual manufacturer?

    We sent one of the agreements to the distributor, and he answered (and, frankly, had a point) that since he is not a manufacturer, this is not a binding document, applicable to his relationship with us.

    How to deal with distributor vs manufacturer quality agreements? Who shall provide us with the quality agreement?

  • Preventive action

    Is redesigning a faulty, non-conforming product a preventive action for future products or a corrective action for the faulty one?

  • Purchase (vendors) scorecards

    Good morning,

    While working on the purchase procedure, I noticed, that the vendors scorecard is a good way to track the quality of the purchase.

    However, I dont see this particular document to be used by our company and I don't want to create anything that will not be ultimately used by my co-workers.

    Is there any other, more simple way, to comply with the ISO 13485 Purchasing but avoid the complication of a vendor scorecard?

    Thanks.

  • Risk Based Approach Document 03 13485

    Hello 

    I had my stage 1 audit, which went well.  I had a minor non conformity on the quality manual.  Document 03_Quality_Manual.  

    The non conformity was as follows:  the quality management requirements are not fully inplemented because it was not made clear in the quality manual which process apply risk based approach.  

    This was in reference to 4.1.2.

    But the quality manual template does not reference a risk based approach.  The only time in document 03 that risk is mentioned is under section 7 for product realization.

    Our company manufactures system (of products) as defined by MDR 745/2017 definition ( "system’ means a combination of products, either packaged together or not, which are intended to be interconnected or combined to achieve a specific medical purpose"). I would like to know if the risk analysis, clinical evaluation and post market surveillance is done for the whole system or its individual parts. Thank you.
