FYI in my company, there are 30 procedure adopt by 9001:2008 version, for all procedure WI and etc.have we to change it?
And can you describe to me, the responsibility for MR in 2015 version? Have we show his sign for all procedure for evidence that he approve the procedure?

Answer:

The best way to start the transition (transition is when you have implemented one version of the standard and you need to adapt your system to new version of the standard) is to get familiar with the requirements of 2015 version of ISO 9001 and audit your system against the new version to determine to what level your existing system is compliant with the standard and what needs to be done to achieve full compliance. For more information about the transition steps, see: How to make the transition from ISO 9001:2008 revision to the 2015 revision https://advisera.com/9001academy/blog/2015/10/06/how-to-make-the-transition-from-iso-90012008-revision-to-the-2015-revision/

You do not have to change all procedures, but they all need to be reviewed to determine what needs to be changed, some will suffer more changes than others but the transition doesn't mean that you need to change your entire documentation. To learn more about requirements regarding the QMS documentation, see: New approach to document and record control in ISO 9001:2015 https://advisera.com/9001academy/blog/2015/06/30/new-approach-to-document-and-record-control-in-iso-90012015/

MR is no longer a mandatory role in QMS, sou you can choose to keep it as a role and in that case nothing changes or you can spread his or her responsibilities across process owners in the company.
