Hi qualitymanager,
For Clause 3.5.3.3 the ongoing performance review of suppliers of services, should be based on risk and defined performance criteria. This performance criteria should be defined in your contracts.
Services can be assessed as part of inspections and internal audits. Reviews can be conducted by records of feedback to the service supplier (such as email correspondence) or recording minutes of review meetings (which discuss performance and results of monitoring).
Examples of monitoring of suppliers of services:
Cleaning – Swabs, Internal Audits/Inspections, Product Conformance
Pest Control – Review of Log of Pest Control Issues Reported Internally, Review of Pest Controller Documentation/Reports, Internal Audits/Inspections
Kind regards,
Tony
