Such organizations are often involved in one or more stages of the life-cycle, including design and development, production, storage and distribution, installation, or servicing of a medical device and style and development or provision of associated activities. ISO 13485:2012 also can be employed by suppliers or external parties that provide product, including quality management system-related services to such organizations. Requirements of ISO 13485:2012 are applicable to organizations no matter their size and no matter their type except where explicitly stated. Wherever requirements are specified as applying to medical devices, the wants apply equally to associated services as supplied by the organization. The processes required by ISO 13485:2012 that are applicable to the organization, but aren’t performed by the organization, are the responsibility of the organization and are accounted for within the organization’s quality management system by monitoring, maintaining, and controlling the processes. If applicable regulatory requirements permit exclusions of design and development controls, this will be used as a justification for his or her exclusion from the standard management system. These regulatory requirements can provide alternative approaches that are to be addressed within the quality management system.
It’s the responsibility of the organization to make sure that claims of conformity to ISO 13485:2012 reflect any exclusion of design and development controls.
