ISO 13485, published in 2003, is based on the ISO 9001 process model approach. Certification to ISO 13485:2003 is becoming the preferred method for medical device manufacturers and their sub tier suppliers/contractors to demonstrate the intent to comply with applicable regulatory and statutory requirements. ISO 13485 is an ISO standard, that represents the requirements for a comprehensive management system for the design and manufacture of medical devices.
Certification to ISO 13485 takes place when an accredited third party, such as BSI, visits an organization, assesses the quality management system and, if satisfactory, issues a certificate confirming that the organization’s quality management system meets the requirements of the standard.
The intent of ISO 13485 is to provide for the development of a Quality Management System that ensures to prospective customers and regulatory bodies that the goods and services offered by the organization will meet customer and regulatory requirements.
