Q
I voted that the poll did not apply to us. I use a consultant for consulting and have not used them to take us through the registration process. In fact I have not had them implement any part of our system ever. I do use them for an audit if it is a new system and to get juices flowing on areas that we may be a little rusty in. I also, use them to help convince management of the necessity and usefulness of things like management review, training records, quality objectives(measurables), etc...
I am the one that helps makes the decisions for the QMS and I evaluate the input of the consultant. I take any choices or decisions to management. I am the one who heads up any issues in the QMS at registration and insures that the QMS meets the standard. I know my companies needs and practices better than any consultant. A consultant is just an outside professional opinion nothing more for me, and I choose if we will use the opinions or not.
