The ISO 9001 standard details the requirements for quality management systems. Our consultants can help you develop the requisite internal quality standards and achieve ISO 9001 certification.
The standard requires the presentation of an organisational structure with the roles and responsibilities of individuals clearly define. The standard also requires an explanation of how information within the organisation is controlled and managed. It also requires descriptions of how other key resources such as staff and equipment are effectively managed. Furthermore, the standard requires organisations to convey how they manage their operational processes, that they have effective systems for monitoring, checking and correcting problems and that they have systems in place to continuously improve their operations.
Meeting the requirements of this standard
There are various clauses in this standard which must be met and a requirement to retain relevant documented information. Consequently, companies pursuing ISO certification will need to produce the documented evidence in different forms such as the “Management Review”, “Internal Audits” and a “Quality Policy”.
ISO Assured can assist with the preparation of management systems to meet the requirements of this standard. Please check our ISO Consultancy page for details of how we can help you through our consultancy services or the provision of our alpha-Z documents package to meet the requirements of this standard.
