\n\nTopic Background
\n\nA lack of adequate control over purchases has resulted in a significant number of recalls due to component failures. Since FDA canno t regulate component suppliers\, it is imperative that your company'\;s purchasing and supplier control requirements provide the assurance that o nly acceptable components are used to manufacture finished devices. Most m edical device manufacturers have acceptable systems in place to assure com ponent quality.

icable criteria they must meet to remain '\;approved.'\; You never h
ave to pay a visit to your supplier if you have a great supplier control p
rogram in place.
