When it comes to ISO 9001:2015, there are no conflict or competing requirements between the two standards. Both ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 13485:2016 have the right hooks to hang additional requirements off of or whatever is necessary within the regulated environment to continue being consistent. They’ve truly been consistent with what the true requirements are. This new ISO 13485 is going to change the way medical device companies think and build products forever. We talk about controlling your processes, the things you need to know from a supplier control standpoint, its differences in structure, and what the timeline is for adoption.
