Re: New regulatory requirement IAF-MD9
Thanks for the followup. I do have that standard, but does it apply to me,
since I'm in the middle of a certification audit and have had a pre-assessment audit?
Why should a sub-contractor, making products per customer specification, be required to be audited the same amount of days as a design manufacturer?
It doesn't make sense to me. Any other comments, or have any more of you had to double your audit days due to this new requirement?

Re: New regulatory requirement IAF-MD9
Does it apply to you? Nope, it applies to the organization performing the audit " This document is mandatory for the consistent application of Clause 9.1.4. of ISO/IEC 17021:2006 for audits of quality and environmental management systems and is based upon guidance previously provided
in IAF GD2:2005 Annex 2 and GD6: 2006 Annex 1. "
Because the certification is for you, not the other guy.
And it's not a new requirement, MD 5 has been around for quite some time, as with other documents it is occasionally revised.

Re: New regulatory requirement IAF-MD9
Thanks Randy,
But the registrar performing our certification audit says we need to now
have 6 audit days, instead of the 3 days they quoted.
Do I have any authority over this change by the auditor?
We had a signed agreement, 29 people, 3 day audit,
with certification to ISO 13485.
Thanks for any assistance.

Re: New IAF-MD9 Regulatory Audit Man-Days Requirement
Hi,IAF mdatory Doc for the application of ISO/IEC 17021 In Medical device QMS (ISO 13485). This is required now for all CB's, Annex D list a table for auditing duration and contains a list of factors which may increase or reduce the auditing duration. this went into effect last month. We just went thru our re-certification audit 13485 9001:2008. this took 4 days, but this annex now lists a auditing duration (for our size of company) of 11 days. Can someone provide any feedback, am I reading this correctly?
Hello,
Did anyone else get the memo on this mandate?
I am in the middle of an ISO 13485 audit, for 3 days duration, and they tell me now I have to go 6 days duration.
Does anyone else have this problem? We have 29 people, and that equals 6 audit days now!
Any comments?
