True, it had been mentioned; however not with respect to ISO 9001:2008. Only to 2000 version.

Any comment on if we have both ISO 9001 and ISO 17020 and we opt for ISO 17020 because it covers both management & techncal requirements for inspection bodies.
By following ISO 17020 are we reasonably fulfilling most of the management requirements of ISO 9001 standard?

As they apply to INSPECTION, yes.....same as when ISO/IEC 17025:2005 makes the statement it applies to testing and calibration.....

In the case of both ISO/IEC 17020 and 025, the QMS requirements are fulfilled because they are specific to the Standard and types of activities carried out.....

In other words, if your organization is accredited to ISO/IEC 17020 and/or 17025, you do NOT also need ISO 9001 for those activities.....you may still need 9001 for other activities however.....
