Choose the right perspective

Match the consultant's experience to your stage, since a startup building its first quality system needs different help than an established manufacturer remediating audit findings or adding EU MDR requirements. Ask whether their work has centered on implementation, auditing or training, because the three call for different kinds of engagement.

Questions to take into the conversation

  1. 01How do you scope a first ISO 13485 quality management system for a small medical device company?
  2. 02Which audit findings do you see most often, and how do you remediate them before a certification audit?
  3. 03How do you align an ISO 13485 system with FDA 21 CFR 820 and EU MDR requirements without duplicating procedures?
