Rachel, I'm sure they could hang it on 5.1 a) which refers to statuatory and regulatory requirements, if an auditor were so inclined...but as I said earlier, in the course of using 5 different Registrars, I've only had 1 bring it up at all, and then it was not a compliance problem.

Re: "Licensed" copy of ISO 9001 Standard During Audit - Has an Auditor Asked for Proo

Hi all,

Reading the interesting thread on "should the standards be FREE", it prompted me to a question.

During audit, has anyone been encountered with a question from the auditor to show them a "licensed" copy of the related ISO standard or to show documented evidence that they bought the ISO standard ?

At least, I have not been faced with that question.

No auditor ever asked me anything about the licenced copy of the standard. However, one of the depart Manager emphasized me to include this point during internal audits. :notme:

So, if an auditee doesnot have the "licensed" copy of the ISO standard and in the absence of "shall", can the auditor give this as an "observation" ?
I would ask to see the Auditor's copy first. I would ask them to demonstrate what they are asking you to demonstrate (prove they have a licensed copy) as an example. I would gamble the discussion would end there.

Wow...interesting....but why should an auditor have a copy of ISO on him during audit???
Even so, the fact that an auditor doesn't have a legal copy justifies the lack of ISO in organisation?
