Calibration SOP
HI, I'm trying to find out if I need a calibration SOP for Design Controls. Since V&V are part of Design Controls, I would think that a calibration SOP has to be in place to ensure that a verification or validation is valid when using equipment that requires calibration. Any thoughts?.

Calibration SOP is a request of ISO 13485:2016 covered in requirement 7.6 Control of monitoring and measuring equipment. I agree with you that equipment that is used to make verification and validation during design must be calibrated. SO, you can cover it in this documented procedure.
