Overview of ISO 9001:2015 Certification

1. What is ISO 9001 Certification?

ISO 9001:2015 is a quality management system standard certification applied to all organizations, businesses, and operating facilities in all fields, from production and service businesses to public administration… The ISO 9001:2015 version is the latest version issued by the International Organization for Standardization.

It can be used to standardize quality management activities within an organization, or used for certification purposes or for contract signing.

2. Characteristics of the ISO 9001 Quality Management System

• Purpose: To provide a fair basis for assessing the ability of organizations to meet/satisfy customer and relevant legal requirements.

• Content: The ISO 9001 standard is a rule-based assessment standard used to obtain a quality assurance.

• Scope: Defines the requirements of a quality management system. The purpose of the ISO 9001 quality management system standard allows the organization to meet customer requirements.

• Applicable objects of ISO 9001 certification: The ISO 9001 standard is applicable to all types of organizations, regardless of size, level, or field of operation. Note: In theory, if the manufacturer meets the ISO 9001 standard, only conforming products will be produced. This helps reduce the need for customer product verification testing upon receipt. However, ISO 9001 does not specify everything an organization needs to do to satisfy its customers. The shortcoming here is that human interaction will affect the pursuit of quality.
