What is ISO 9001?

The ISO 9001 standard is an internationally-agreed set of documented rules and guidelines that provide clear criteria for implementing and maintaining a quality system in your business.

• customer focus - to understand and fulfil customer needs
• leadership - to increase employee motivation
• involvement of people - to recognise, empower and enhance the competence of people in the organisation and their role in delivering quality products or services
• process approach - to identify your essential business activities and consider each one as part of a process
• continuous improvement - to make improvement a permanent business objective
• evidence-based decision making - to use analysis of data to inform decisions
• relationship management - to recognise the interdependence of your business and its suppliers

The principles describe which requirements your products, services and organisation have to meet in order to comply with the standard.

To comply with the ISO 9001:2015 standard, you must maintain the following documentation:

• your quality policy
• your quality objectives
• the scope of the quality management system

The ISO 9001:2015 no longer requires any documented procedures or a quality manual, but refers to 'documented information' instead, as the information that the organisation has to retain, control and maintain.

The standard requires you to maintain documented information 'to the extent necessary to 91香蕉黄色视频 the operation of processes'. You have the flexibility to work out what you need and how you want to document it.

Bear in mind that documented information is used as evidence of conformance, can help provide consistency in processes, help with staff training and preservation of knowledge.
