ISO 9001 Standards – Control of Measuring and Monitoring Equipment

ISO 9001 Standards - Control of Measuring and Monitoring Equipment

Determine the monitoring and measurements to be made, and the required equipment, to provide evidence of product conformity. Use and control the monitoring and measuring devices to ensure that measurement capability is consistent with monitoring and measurement requirements.

Where necessary to ensure valid results:

- Calibrate and/or verify the measuring equipment at specified intervals or prior to use

- Calibrate the equipment to national or international standards (or record other basis)

- Adjust or re-adjust as necessary

- Identify the measuring equipment in order to determine its calibration status

- Safeguard them from improper adjustments

- Protect them from damage and deterioration

Assess and record the validity of prior results if the device is found to not conform to requirements. Maintain records of the calibration and verification results.

Confirm the ability of software used for monitoring and measuring for the intended application before its initial use (and reconfirmed as necessary).

NOTE: Confirming the ability of software to satisfy the intended application would typically include its verification and configuration management to maintain its suitability for use.
