FAQ

ISO 13485 is intended for any organization involved in the design, production, installation, and servicing of medical devices and related services. It can also benefit suppliers and external parties that provide product, including quality management system-related services to such organizations.

While ISO 9001 applies to a wide range of industries, ISO 13485 is specifically tailored to the regulatory and safety requirements of the medical device industry. It emphasizes meeting regulatory as well as customer requirements, risk management, and effective process validation more than ISO 9001.
