Recertificación, auditoria externa y control de no conformidades
El acuerdo con la entidad de certificación continua después de la auditoria inicial (la auditoria de certificación), realizando además las auditorias rutinarias del sistema en curso (conocidas como auditorias de control o mantenimiento). Esto se lleva a cabo en un ciclo de tres años, en el cual la auditoria de certificación inicial examina al SGC ISO 9001 al completo, y en los dos años siguientes de auditorias de mantenimiento examina sólo partes del sistema. Las auditorias de mantenimiento pueden llevarse a cabo una vez al año, dos veces o más, dependiendo de lo que se haya acordado con la entidad certificadora; sin embargo, el mínimo es una vez al año durante el periodo en el cual la certificación es válida. Al final de los tres años, el ciclo comienza de nuevo si la compania decide mantener el certificado ISO 9001.

la norma dice que ya la documentación no es tan importante. que me evaluarían entonces en la auditoria externa ?
En la primera fase de la auditoria, el auditor examina la documentación y determina si cumple con los requisitos de la norma. En la segunda fase de la auditoria, el auditor examina los procesos y entrevista a los empleados para determinar si son llevados a cabo de acuerdo con la norma y la documentación del SGC.
Obtener el apoyo de la alta dirección es crucial para tener éxito en el proceso de implementación. Sin este apoyo, la implementación de ISO 9001 seguramente fallará, ya que no se obtendrán los recursos necesarios para llevar a cabo un proyecto de tal complejidad.
Otro factor crítico es asegurarse de identificar todos los requisitos existentes para el SGC. Esto incluye los requerimientos de los consumidores, así como otros requisitos como regulaciones legales y las necesidades de la cultura de empresa.
Además, definir el alcance del SGC será de gran ayuda para asegurar que la organización conoce los límites de lo que necesita ser realizado, sin incluir áreas del negocio que pudieran no tener ningún efecto en el sistema
Si me podrían asesorar en como hacer un control de servicio no conforme ?
Básicamente lo que hay que hacer es evitar que el problema se propague. Esto puede significar la incorporación de una inspección adicional después del proceso para revisar el problema en futuros productos o servicios, o la revisión de otros productos o servicios que ya habían sido creados por el proceso. Además, si es evidente de manera inmediata que un cierto parámetro del proceso ha cambiado, entonces habría que corregirlo en el parámetro anterior, a lo cual se conoce como acción de control.
The design history file is an FDA term which you’ll find described in 21 CFR Part 820.30. It talks about your design controls and how they must be kept in a design history file. Design History File (DHF) is simply the collection of documents from the design and development process.
Here’s how the FDA describe it in 21 CFR Part 820.30(j):
“Each manufacturer shall establish and maintain a DHF for each type of device. The DHF shall contain or reference the records necessary to demonstrate that the design was developed in accordance with the approved design plans and the requirements of this part.”
Until recently, a DHF was technically only a requirement defined by FDA. ISO 13485:2003 made no direct mentioned of a DHF, or something similar. However, the updated ISO 13485:2016 does now specify the need to establish “design and development files”.
Both CMMI and ISO 9001 aim at improving process quality. The fundamental difference between CMMI vs ISO 9001 is conceptual. CMMI is a process model and ISO 9001 is an audit standard.
CMMI is a set of related "best practices" derived from industry leaders and relates to product engineering and software development. Businesses receive CMMI ratings from Level 1 to Level 5 depending upon the extent of compliance to key performance areas specified in the selected CMMI process area.
ISO 9001 is a certification tool that certifies businesses whose processes conform to the laid down standards. Implementing ISO 9001 doesn't mean that you are compliant with CMMI, although it can be a good foundation for implementing CMMI.
What is your advice on implementing an enterprise quality assurance framework, in a nut shell? Does it sound correct, if I propose that use ISO 9001:2015 as overarching quality assura nce framework, where apply ISO 27001 for its information security?
ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 have their own purposes, ISO 9001 deals with quality while ISO 27001 is focusing on information security. They are complementary and can be implemented and maintained together as an integrated management system. For more information, see: How to integrate ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 https://advisera.com/9001academy/blog/2016/09/27/how-to-integrate-iso-9001-and-iso-27001/
Exclusions and ISO 9001:2015
Answer:
If the component is manufactured by your company it must be designed and the production process developed. If your company only assembles it must design and develop the assembled product but not the individual components. For example, a company can manufacture an industrial equipment. Design and development applies to the equipment as an whole and to some parts developed inside the company. The equipment incorporates a standard motor that the company buys to an approved supplier. The company do not need to design and develop that motor. And if during use, due to a breakdown of the equipment, the customer t hat bought the equipment orders a new motor, it is just a commercial operation included in the after-sales service. So, in that case you can exlude design and development for those standard components.
Answer: ISO 27001 does not define a role such as Information Security Manager, but authorities and responsibilities that must be fulfilled:
- ensure that the ISMS conforms to ISO 27001 standard; and
- report on the performance of the ISMS to top management
These authorities and responsibilities can be designated to the role of Information Security Manger, if it exist in the organization, or to any other role the organizations sees as appropriated.
La subcontratación de un proceso que necesita la organización está sujeto a los requisitos de las cláusulas 8.4 (Control de proveedores externos) y la cláusula 4.4 (SGC y sus procesos) de la norma ISO 9001:2015.
Hay que asegurarse de incluir todos los procesos externalizados que afectan a la calidad del producto o servicio en el alcance del SGC, en este caso la empresa que realiza el proceso de selección de los empleados. Es necesario identificar, definir y demostrar evidencia de controles suficientes sobre el proveedor externo del proceso externalizado para asegurar que tal proceso es llevado a cabo según los requisitos de I SO 9001:2015. La naturaleza y alcance de tales controles van a depender de la naturaleza del proceso externalizado o subcontratado y el riesgo que ello implica. Los procesos externalizados pueden ser controlados de muchas maneras, por ejemplo, facilitando especificaciones del servicio o el manual de calidad de proveedores que deben de cumplir; pidiéndoles resultados de inspecciones o certificados de conformidad, o la validación del proceso externalizado; realizando auditorias del servicio y auditorias del SGC del subcontratista; etc.
Answer: I saw that you covered assets most related to hardware and information media. Considering the ISO 27005 standard (information security risk management), annex B (identification and valuation of assets and impact evaluation), I think you should also consider the following for assets that will need some sort of control that will be relevant for every employee:
- Specific types of information (e.g., those with high cost to produce or replace, those related to business strategy and performance, people's privacy, etc.)
- People in specific positions (e.g., decision makers, key department managers, developers, products/processes specialists, etc.)
In the Inventory of Assets template that comes with your toolkit you have a list of assets you can consider (sheet "Checklist of assets").
If you still have any doubts, included in your toolkit you can schedule a meeting with one of our experts so he can provide you additional support. To schedule a meeting you can access this link: https://advisera.com/27001academy/consultation/
Defining the scope of internal laboratory
Answer:
The level of details to be included in the lab scope will depend on the complexity of the measurements your lab performs. If you have fairly liberal tolerances, you can afford to generalize where others may not be able to. The topics that are usually included in the lab scope are laboratory testing and calibration methods, equipment listing, methods and standards.
Closing meeting for internal audit
Answer:
Closing meeting is not required by the standard for internal audits and most companies don't hold it although I think it is a good idea. On the closing meeting you should present to the top management the results of the internal audit.
You can start with explaining the scope of the audit, the audit criteria, whether the audit plan was fully realized ( for example, you can tell them if there were some processes or locations that were left out from the audit and present the reasons why) and then you can present them with the audit findings (nonconformities, recommendations for improvement, etc).
If you are planning to let go of IATF 16949 and want to keep only ISO 9001 certificate, then you do not have to include APQP. On the other hand, APQP is in most cases the customer requirement, so if the customer requires it, you should keep it regardless of whether you keep IATF 16949 certificate or not.
