ISO 9001:2015 Management system standards
Some of ISO’s
most well-known standards are management system standards. They provide a model
to follow when setting up and operating a management system. Like all ISO
standards, they are the result of international, expert consensus. Therefore, by
implementing a management system standard, organizations can benefit from global
management experience and good practice.
These standards
can be applied to any organization, large or small, whatever its product or
service and regardless of its sector of activity.An effective
management system has many benefits including:
• more efficient
resource use
• improved risk management, and
• increased customer satisfaction as services and products
Continual
improvement
All ISO's
management system standards are based on the principle of continual improvement.
An organization or company assesses its current situation, fixes objectives and
develops policy, implements actions to meet these objectives and then measures
the results. With this information the effectiveness of the policy, and the
actions taken to achieve it, can be continually reviewed and improved.
Audits
Audits are a
vital part of ISO's management system approach as they enable the company or
organization to check how far their achievements meet their objectives. External
audits also play a role in showing conformity to the standard.
In order to help
the auditing of these standards, particularly for companies implementing more
than one management system standard, ISO has released ISO
19011:2011. This standard provides specific guidance on internal and
external management system audits.
