1. ISO 9001 Standard: Fundamentals and Benefits

2. Businesses consider the ISO 9001 standard to be the cornerstone for the quality management system (QMS) as it lays out the requirements for monitoring, administering, and improving the production and distribution processes and ensures the delivery of premium quality services or products. It ensures a process approach in the organisation that will ascertain continual improvement and satisfaction of customer wants. ISO 9001 certification to the standard is only achieved when the organisation follows a uniform framework or approach to quality management within the QMS. The next slides will explain the basics of the certification and how it benefits all organisations. ISO 9001- Quality Management System Certification

ISO 9001 Requirements Explained The major requirements of the ISO 9001 standard that an organisation needs to meet with their QMS are explained in the following points- General Quality Requirements Resources Management Management Responsibility These include QMS documentation, quality policy, QMS implementation, quality control methods, and measurements for key quality metrics. The QMS calls for a serious commitment by the management of the organisation to implement the QMS, assign responsibilities to executives to administer it, and review it periodically. QMS directs the efficient purchase and use of the raw-materials or resources (staff and technology) in the production of products or services.
