标准摘要
[中文适用范围]: 本国际标准包含有关所有类型管理体系(如质量管理体系或环境管理体系)审核和认证以及提供这些活动的机构的能力、一致性和公正性的原则和要求。按照本国际标准开展工作的认证机构不需要提供所有类型的管理体系认证。管理体系认证(本国际标准中称为“认证”)是一种第三方合格评定活动(见 ISO/IEC 17000:2004,5.5)。因此,从事此项活动的机构为第三方合格评定机构(本国际标准中称为“认证机构”)。注 1:管理体系认证有时也称为“注册”,认证机构有时也称为“注册机构”。注 2:认证机构可以是非政府的,也可以是政府的(有或没有监管机构)。注 3:本国际标准可用作认可、同行评审或其他审核过程的标准文件。 [外文原描述]: ISO/IEC 17021:2011 contains principles and requirements for the competence, consistency and impartiality of the audit and certification of management systems of all types (e.g. quality management systems or environmental management systems) and for bodies providing these activities. Certification bodies operating to ISO/IEC 17021:2011 need not offer all types of management system certification. Certification of management systems is a third-party conformity assessment activity. Bodies performing this activity are therefore third-party conformity assessment bodies.
英文名称Conformity assessment - Requirements for bodies providing audit and certification of management systems
