We are being scheduled for our Surveillance 2 audit. Our RA/QA Director recently left the company. I am about to hire a replacement but it will take some time for her to come up to speed to support an audit.
The agreement from the auditor says that surveillance audits "shall be conducted at least once a calendar year, except in recertification years"
They are putting pressure on me to do it within 12 months of Surveillance 1 (in June) but doesn't the above indicate that I can do it anytime in 2024? We are staying compliant regardless (I built the QMS) but I would really like to get a more fully qualified RA/QA up to speed before the audit.
Thank you all for your input.
