I work for a medical device manufacturer and am undergoing an ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 audit this week. We have 4 calibration labs on the AVL. 2 of them are registered to ISO 9001 but not 17025. It is not in our documented policy to require 17025, other than for a few pieces of equipment. The equipment that requires calibration to 17025 is noted on the calibration log. The auditor is saying that even though certification to 17025 is not required in the standards that he is being advised by his reviewers to write action requests for company's using labs that are certified. Have you heard of this? What is the industry norm? Should I look to replace the labs even though I am happy with thier work?
