We are soliciting opinions: We are an existing contract manufacturer certified to ISO 13485. We've begun to rent space in our building to a start-up company that distributes a product unrelated to our own product line or customer base. The start-up has their products shipped to our facility and they are warehoused here for distribution to their clients. The start-up provides its own employee to manage all aspects of handling and distributing their products. We do not touch the product or perform services for the start-up other than providing a facility in which to conduct business.
Our questions are: In your opinion, does the start-up company fall under our quality system? If you think yes, we know what to do. If no, what do you think are the minimum quality requirements that they need to operate under in this circumstance? (Such as receiving inspections, status labeling, lot number traceability, quarantine, doc control) How much responsibility/liability do we posses with the start-up working out of our facility?
This is new territory to us and we (the Quality department) want to be sure we are in control of our situation. Thanks for your opinions.
