ISO 9001
ISO 9001 is the world’s most popular quality management standard
Businesses today seek to offer products and services that not only meet but also surpass customer expectations. At the same time, they are under pressure to cut costs to remain competitive. Organisations both large and small require a comprehensive approach to quality improvement that resolves these challenges of quality and cost efficiency.
Ensure continuous improvement throughout your organisation
The ISO 9001 Quality Management System is the world’s most popular quality improvement standard, with over one million certified organisations in 180 countries around the globe. It is the only standard in the 9000 family of standards published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that can be used for the purpose of conformity assessment. ISO 9001 also serves as the basis for many other important sector-specific standards, including ISO 13485 (medical devices), ISO/TS 16949 (automotive) and AS/EN 9100 (aerospace), as well as widely used management system standards such as OHSAS 18001 and ISO 14001.
Facilitating evolving market demands, the quality management system ISO 9001 was revised in 2015. Organisations that are currently certified to ISO 9001:2008 need to complete the transition to the revised standard by September 15, 2018.
