Harmac Earns ISO 13485 Audit with Zero Nonconformities for Second Straight Year
October 25, 2022
Harmac
has earned its annual, all-facility ISO 13485 audit with zero
nonconformities for the second year in a row! This is particularly
impressive given the worldwide challenges over the past two
years.
As
our vision states, we’re changing the lives of patients, employees
and the communities in which we work – and we achieve this in large
part through our robust quality management system (QMS) shared across
our facilities. It’s designed and implemented to assure the highest
levels of product quality, as well as compliance with
all applicable regulatory and industry standard
requirements.
Evaluating
and continually monitoring our QMS is important in validating its
effectiveness. Audits help companies ensure the decisions they make,
the processes they use, and their documented information are in line
with applicable requirements and their organization’s purpose.
Established procedures and processes are better monitored through
audits – internal or external – although external audits from
accredited bodies add higher levels of expertise and
objectivity.
"It
really demonstrates the strength of our QMS, along with the
dedication and competence of our employees," said Harmac
Associate Director of Corporate Quality Nathan Monin. "It's a
comfort to know that, even through the difficulties presented by
COVID-19, our system was up to the challenge."
This
was further validated during our recertification audit last year, and
by this year's surveillance audit. Our customers can be confident
that the products and services we provide not only meet, but exceed,
all requirements. Our employees are proud of and dedicated to our
QMS, as well as the commitment to provide world-class medical
products and services. Contact us to learn how we can help you!
