Is it part of regulations to provide auditors with employee(s) signed job descriptions if asked?
Would you prefer ISO 13485 for a Medical device company? to ISO 9001:2015?
We are ISO 9001:2015 certified and would like to initiate ISO 13485:2016 QMS implementation. We manufacture molecular biology reagents for research use only. My query is if we implement ISO 13485:2016, we would still label the reagents as research use only and supply to research customers with the possibility of selling it to Medical device manufacturers as well? Am i correct in my understanding?
Also, is 13485 product specific or for the processes?
ISO 13485, Manufacturing of Thermometer, Ventilator, BP Measurement apparatus - what are the applicable regulatory requirements?
I work for *** in the UK. I am trying to find out if I can import 4 ply face masks from a supplier in Vietnam that has the ISO13485:2016 certificate. I don't know if this is adequate or if the masks need to comply with EN or EU regulations.
I read your article on Managing Medical Device Infrastructure and we are wondering to what level of detail and validation we have to go. For example, we have measuring equipment that requires calibration, so we create validation records for each piece of equipment, including calibration schedules and service schedules. We also have a large volume of software, for example document writing, spreadsheets, ERP systems, Finance system, etc etc etc. We also have computers for development that our development team uses, computers for service delivery that our programmes run on. The same question applies, we wonder if we need records for each computer, each desk, each software package. Can you provide any clarity in this area for us at all?
We perform our Management Review on an annual basis and we always try to do it in May if I have to postpone it to August this year. Is that a problem?
I work for a contract packaging house that is ISO13485:2016. I have a customer that has a Class II device they would like to package with us. They will be getting the item certified to EU standards to get the CE mark for it. The question I have is, does our 13485 ISO cert cover us to support the customer on this? Since we do not hold the 510k, but would be a part of the supply chain, is any additional certification needed for us to primary and secondarily package this Class II item?
