Re: ISO 9001:2008 vs moving

good idea
although it will mess stuff up
we have one internal audit scheduled this month
and the surveillance is in the beginning of the august

the problem is - I dont have the move date yet, bosses still deciding - god knows on what
we need more space - period

As all other Cover´s have said, it will not affect your ISO registration at all... I would however, document the planning of the move in a Preventive Action and discuss it with Top Management during your Management review meetings...

We moved a whole factory to another city in 2008... stressfull but worked out great and zero NC during the audit.

Best of luck !

we are just moving to the other side of the building so it will be way less stressful
and most likely done on forklifts

Make sure that you address your re-validations if any. Our CB have a very keen watch on the changes that effect validation of processes. Your shifting will be a classic case.

we excluded 7.5.2
as I mentioned we die cut various types of papers into circles for lab use
the purchased rolls of paper are verified at delivery and all specs are reviewed
and unless there is a hole in them - and off course they would not be shipped, they have to work, there is nothing to validate

I also think that the move you have described is not likely to effect your registration status, but I must point out that it is entirely up to your certification body. They have the right (responsibility) to do a full reassessment when they feel that something has happened that can have a negative impact on your quality management system. Specifically list in the things that could do that are major changes in management and a physical move. I personally have had to perform such reassessments because of finding the company had moved (only a few blocks away) or had been bought out and had new ownership.

The best bit of advice I could give is to make sure your certification body knows about it before they show up for the audit, and let them know what you have done to mitigate any negative effects.

You have had some wonderful suggestions here to help you with that.

Please keep us posted.

thank you sooo much to all of you for great advice. I did speak to our lead auditor, and even though our registrar has a habit of performing reassessment audits in the case of move, it will not be necessary in our case. First - there will be no changes to our QMS, the equipment stays the same, the employees and management is the same. The location is different but we are only moving to the space literally next door withing the same building. So our lead decided against extra audit.
Thank you guys again.
As always you have been a great help
