This ISO 9001:2008 webinar explains the changes in ISO 9001:2008 related to outsourced processes. Discussion on the ISO’s guidance document on outsourced process to have an understanding of the intent and develop methods for evaluation and selection of outsourced suppliers, methods for written supplier agreements.
Why You Should Attend:
In 2008, a new edition of ISO 9001 went into effect. The literature says the new version doesn’t introduce any new requirements but only clarifications to the existing requirements. One of the clarifications involves the use of Outsourced Processes in the Quality Management System. The changes clarify the organization’s responsibility for conformity to all customer, regulatory, and statutory requirements, the need for control over outsourced processes and recommend using the methods found in the ISO 9001 Purchasing clause. These changes also include suppliers who are part of the same parent organization, such as a separate department or division. To help clarify the requirements, ISO issued a guidance document on Outsourced Processes.
While the changes are explicit to ISO 9001, they also apply to medical device Quality Management Systems such as ISO 13485 and the FDA’s Quality System Regulation (QSR).
The presentation explains the changes to ISO 9001, and recommendations in the guidance document. Discussion will be on a practical implementation approach, showing how to evaluate and select outsource suppliers, especially service suppliers. We develop methods for written supplier agreements, which define controls and expectations. A critical element for success is monitoring and measuring of the delivered service. This presentation incorporates supplier scorecards as the most effective tools for this purpose.
