Recovery

ISO 22301 does not prescribe how recovery needs to be performed, so organizations can implement recovery as best fits their needs.

The preference for fully automated recovery versus human intervention step by step would depend on various factors such as the criticality of the systems or data being recovered, the complexity of the recovery process, and the resources available.

Fully automated recovery processes can be faster and more efficient in certain situations, especially for routine or well-defined recovery scenarios where human intervention may introduce delays or errors. Automation can also help ensure consistency and reduce the risk of human error during the recovery process.

However, in some cases, human intervention may be necessary to make critical decisions, assess the situation, or address unforeseen issues that automated systems may not be able to handle. Human intervention can also provide a level of oversight and control that may be necessary for certain recovery scenarios.

Zeiss CMM Users

I do not know where the person you were talking to got the information that this is against the AS9100 requirements because those requirements do not go into this much detail on how you manage the organization, they only give a structure on what needs to be included.

In fact, in AS9100 clause 8.5.2 it talks about using acceptance media as part of the identification and traceability, and gives examples of electronic signatures and passwords as being acceptable. This is how you will be controlling the approval in your CMM area. Again, the standard does require that you control changes and access for production processes, but this is what you will be doing.

Repackaging of a medical device

ISO 13485 is not specifically mentioned anywhere in the MDR, but the term quality management system is extended. However, Article 8 states that "Devices that are in conformity with the relevant harmonized standards, or the relevant parts of those standards, the references of which have been published in the Official Journal of the European Union, shall be presumed to conform with the requirements of this Regulation covered by those standards or parts thereof." In the list of harmonized standards published in the Official Journal of the European Union, the only standard related to the quality system is ISO 13485. That is why manufacturers and distributors are expected to have introduced ISO 13485.

Contract Review Scope

For medical devices, all contracts must be reviewed to be sure that all requirements from the MDR point of view are settled. Whether all contracts will be reviewed depends primarily on whether they are critical parts or parts that can be purchased/acquired anywhere. For critical parts, it is important to be sure that the supplier will inform you of any changes in their product that could affect the quality of the final medical product.

FMEA new style

Different FMEA manuals are available. The main ones are AIAG Rev 4 and AIAG & VDA Rev 2019. They are valid for both FMEA. What is important here is what your customer's specific requirements are. If you do not have any customer-specific requirements, you can use the AIAG rev 4 FMEA model.

Why is ITIL so important?

Almost all services most companies provide today are IT-enabled. That means organizations have a tremendous benefit in creating, expanding, and improving their IT service management capability. ITIL is a powerful tool in a way that:

ITIL provides the guidance organizations need to address service management challenges and utilize the potential of modern technology.
ITIL is designed to ensure a flexible, coordinated, and integrated system for the effective governance and management of IT-enabled services.
ITIL is a best practice framework that guides ITSM delivery. 
ITIL is not a theoretic approach. On the contrary, it's practical (written by experts in the industry) and flexible (can be adapted in any company, independent of the size or nature of the business).
ITIL provides an end-to-end approach to IT service management and integrates well with other frameworks, e.g., Lean, DevOps, and Agile.
The article „Why ITIL?“ https://advisera.com/20000academy/knowledgebase/itil/ will provide more details.
