“A significant portion of ACD’s business comes from the medical electronics market. This certification only strengthens our position in that marketplace, and shows our commitment to process and quality improvement for all of the markets that we serve,” commented W. Scott Fillebrown, President & CEO.
ISO 13485 is a standard specific to medical device quality systems that supplements the ISO 9001 standard. Some of the additional requirements relate to design controls, process controls (including environmental controls), special processes, traceability, record retention and regulatory actions that are critical to the medical electronics device industry.
This is a significant achievement that will allow ACD to further its support in the medical electronics market while allowing manufacturing partnerships with non-medical customers where complete traceability down to component levels is an important part of end-item product tracking and history.
