  4. What you need to know about calibration in ISO 9001 You need to: ensure all calibration is traceable to a national standard. Have evidence of being calibrated e.g. a sticker Protect equipment from damage or adjustment have a process for determining what you do if a piece of equipment is inaccurate; keep records of your calibration; ensure that the capability of any software you use matches your requirements.

  5. Why do Maintenance? How important is maintenance? If you want confidence that machines are behaving and performing as designed, then you institute a regular maintenance program.

  6. Why do Calibration? To be able to know that the measure of that test equipment is accurate, you need to have it calibrate against a known standard.

  7. What This Module Covers In this module we will be: Considering whether you need a maintenance process and if necessary creating a maintenance process. Creating a maintenance schedule Creating a calibration schedule Creating a calibration process or procedure
