Question:

In accordance with ISO 15156-3, Section 7.2 on marking, labeling, and documentation, it is mentioned that materials complying with ISO 15156 should be made traceable.

The specific documents required to ensure acceptable traceability of materials in compliance with ISO 15156 shall be determined and agreed upon between the equipment user and relevant parties. The traceability requirements can vary depending on the specific circumstances and contractual agreements. Therefore, it is essential to establish clear communication and agreement regarding the necessary documentation to achieve the desired level of traceability.

This approach ensures that the traceability requirements are tailored to the specific needs and expectations of the equipment user, promoting transparency and accountability throughout the process.

Please consult with the equipment user and other relevant stakeholders to determine the specific documentation required for ensuring acceptable traceability in accordance with ISO 15156.
