IATF / ISO 17025 Calibration

bfire85
All you programmers who work in Automotive and/or are IATF certified, do you have Hexagon calibrate your CMMs to ISO 17025?

At last year's audit, we were dinged for not having the ANAB label on our CMM certs. In the past we just did the B89 or ISO 10360 (vision). Per the IATF standard 7.1.5.3.2 the certificate of calibration or test report shall include the mark of a national accreditation body. Hexagon only does this with an ISO 17025 calibration. Hexagon won't add the ANAB onto the certs unless they do an ISO 17025 calibration, even though they are ANAB certified.

This year we are adding this to our MyCare package and now Hexagon wants to charge an additional $2K for each CMM calibration.

How many of you ran into this or currently do this?

    "Hexagon is ISO 17025 registered. Here's a cert proving this that was issued to them by their ANAB/national equivalency accredited "Certification Body" (CB). Please see the mark of the CB here *points to paper*. This document is on record in our Quality System and is also used as part of the objective evidence package that determines whether or not we allow Hexagon to be on our Approved Vendor List.

    Hexagon calibrated our CMM to the B89 spec. Here is the cert from Hexagon proving this.

    Please accept Hexagon's 17025 cert (with ANAB mark), Hexagon's calibration cert for my CMM, as well as this copy of our AVL, as objective evidence that the requirement you're auditing is has been fulfilled."

    Theres a lot of extra words there...hoped this would get your brain aimed in the right direction
