Context: a controlled document?
Assign topic to the user
I mean is it enough - according to ISO 9001:2015 - to have a soft copy of the context? Shall I keep a print out of the context in a certain file? or shall it be kept as a controlled copy.
Answer
ISO 9001:2015 does not include any requirement for documenting the context. Organizations are free to decide if they want to document their context determination. For example, in many implementation projects organizations decide to consider context determination as a record.
