Useful answers

ISO 13485. Your questions answered.

How does ISO 13485 differ from ISO 9001?

ISO 13485 is designed for the medical-device sector and its quality and regulatory requirements. ISO 9001 provides a quality management framework across a wider range of sectors.

Does a certificate approve an individual medical device?

ISO 13485 certification concerns the quality management system. Product conformity and market-access requirements must be considered separately for the device and market involved.

Can you work with our existing quality system?

Yes. We can review existing procedures and records, identify gaps and agree the work needed for your chosen scope.

What affects the cost of ISO 13485 support?

Your activities, sites, existing system and preparation needs determine the consultancy scope. We provide a tailored quote. Budget separately for independent assessment and any scheme fees.

How long does preparation for ISO 13485 take?

Timing depends on your starting point, the work required, availability of evidence and assessment dates. A gap analysis helps establish a realistic plan.
