There are several places in the standard where AS9100 states that a process is required for some specific purpose. The following excerpt from clause 7.1.5.2 is one such example.
"The organization shall establish, implement, and maintain a process for the recall of monitoring and measuring equipment requiring calibration or verification."
Is AS9100 suggesting that a standalone process is required for this purpose? That is, do we need to define a process with inputs, outputs, KPIs, procedures, etc. for this one specific purpose? I have always believed that this is not the case. My interpretation has been that so long as some other process includes procedures and/or controls that cover the requirements then you are compliant.
