Strictly, ISO 9000 registartion means that you have the paperwork and the parts
should meet the spec. Once you put self -certification to a published
Harmonised Standard in the loop, it should, in theory, mean the product meets
the standard.
NOTE THAT I SAY "IN THEORY"!
Only if you specifically say so in the documentation.
Product specs in the ISO doc are getting a bit too specific. , which was
the main problem the auditors said they ran into.
ISO docs mainly describe the work process and record keeping in detail,
but not the product itself.
At most you might refer to the product spec sheet, but not if the ID
changed ever time it was updated.
All, and I have to emphasize the "all" being ISO compliant means is you
have the documentation in place that accurately describes what you are
doing.
As was mentioned, even then there is no gurantee that company is
following its own docs. OTOH if they get caught they may have a hard
time getting re-certified and that is expensive as well as hard on their
reputation.
