I want to know if there is no production of medical machine after successfully ISO 13485 and ISO 9001:2008 what will be the consequences in future surveillance audits, as ISO 9001:2015 is update from 2008 so it is necessary to implement ISO 9001:2015 in surveillance audit?

If you want to maintain your ISO 9001 certificate, you will need to make transition to the new version of the standard until September 2018. This can be done during surveillance audits or re-certification audits. In my opinion, it is better to conduct it during re-certification audit since the cost of the surveillance audit is smaller than the re-certification and getting certified against new version of ISO 9001 is practically a certification audit and will be charged appropriately. The same rule applies to ISO 13485 as well.

Since ISO 13485:2016 is developed according to ISO 9001:2008, you won't have too much problems making the transition because all elements of ISO 9001:2008 will remain in the new version. When making transition to ISO 9001:2015 you will basically only need to add new requirements (context of the organization, risks and opportunities, etc) and leave all the old elements (quality manual, preventive actions, etc) because they are still required by ISO 13485:2016.
