How does a certification work?

In the first step, you discuss your company and the goals of an ISO 13485 certification with us. Based on these discussions, you will receive an individual quote tailored to the needs of your company or organization.

The results from your system assessment are evaluated by an independent panel of experts, who confirm or reject the assessor's certification recommendation. If there are any questions regarding the content, we will contact you.

If you can prove that all requirements have been met, you will then receive your DQS certificate.

In order to maintain your certification, we must carry out annual surveillance audits for the case of ISO 13485 or GDPMD.

Should there be any changes to your quality management system within a certification cycle, we will adapt our surveillance activities accordingly and include them in the audit cycle.

A certification according to ISO 13485 or GDPMD has a maximum validity of three years, but you can seamlessly combine it with a subsequent audit cycle by applying for recertification.

Whilst for Full Conformity assessment or Technical Documents Verification, there is no on going surveillance activities unless changes of medical devices, and these certificates has a maximum validity of five years.
