Hello,
I work at a company whose product is a software product that is classified as a Medical Device Data System (MDDS) and is Class I, exempt.
We do plan to assess/evaluate suppliers where there is a relationship, contract, and requirements for the supplier to meet.
The question we're kicking around is: do we need to evaluate all suppliers? We purchase lots of off-the-shelf software and hardware from industry giants like EMC, Cisco, Oracle, etc. It does not seem to make much sense that we would ask for an assessment of these companies. I couldn't imagine reaching someone there for them to complete a questionnaire.
Thanks.
