Hi there (and happy 4th),
An auditor wrote a NC for not following ISO 14971, while an audit for 13485,
Here is the NC quote:
• Risk Management Plan, OP-02, rev 5 does not contain a risk policy as required in ISO 14971:2007 clause 3.2
• Risk Management Plan, OP-02, rev 5 does not outline the requirements for qualifications of personnel as required in ISO 14971:2007 clause 3.3
Nowhere in our procedure did we state that we shall follow 14971, but we mentioned 14971 as a "reference" in the "references" section.
My questions to the community here are:
1. Does ISO 13485 mandate ISO 14971 to be used?
2. Did we "dig a hole" by mentioning 14971 in our procedure as a reference?
ugh...I sometimes feel I need do be a lawyer when writing procedures...
Interested to hear your thoughts,
Thanks in advance,
Sue
