Increasing rate of compliancy
and standardization.
The rate of entities becoming ISO 9000 compliant
has risen dramatically in the last 10 years or so.
 The number of U.S. based companies that have
been certified has risen from around 1,000 in
1993 to well over 20,000 in the late 90’s
 Other countries have followed this same trend.
Making ISO 9000 a big focus in many economies.

The Ideology of ISO 9000
 ISO 9000 is mainly concerned with quality
management
 It focuses on quality services and products.
 The standards of compliancy are set forth
by researchers who determine quality
based on market research.
Beginning the process
 Once an entity has decided that becoming
ISO 9000 compliant will benefit themselves
they must go through a standard process.
Pre-requisites of Becoming ISO
9000 Compliant
 ISO 9000 distinguishes from Quality
system requirements, and product/service
quality requirements.
 It also recognizes 4 types of products:




Hardware
Software
Materials
Services
What does quality rely on? What
Questions should be asked?
*Are we able to constantly and routinely update
products/services to meet the changing
environment?
*Is the product/service a desirable one for the
marketplace?
*Is the product/service you produce reliable and
constant?
*Will you be able to provide customer service
throughout the duration of the product’s/service’s
life cycle?
All work is a Process!
 This process consists of Inputs and
outputs, and the transformation processes
involved in making a final product that
appeals to customers.
An organization as a network!

Within each organization, players must link and
manage processes efficiently with a relay of
accurate pertinent information from source to
source.
Quality definition and
management
 Quality is based on how well all the
processes are defined and managed.
 What is the weak link if any?
 Are the processes of high quality? And can
they be implemented in a system that
utilizes the strength of each process?
Pre-requisites of Becoming ISO
9000 Compliant
 What should be asked to determine if your
process is of high quality?
Pre-requisites of Becoming ISO
9000 Compliant
 Have procedures been developed for the
control of the processes at hand?
 Are these procedures well documented
and well defined?
 Are these procedures being put to full use?
 Can these processes lead to the final
output you wish to deliver to the supplier?
Action Planning Checklists
 Once an entity decides to seek registration,
they may use action planning checklists.
– Action Planning Checklists= Guidelines and areas
that ISO 9000 inspectors focus on during their
inspection.
Evaluation of quality systems
Who evaluate these processes and systems?
 Executive managers:

– Within one’s own business/corporation.
– If an internal source can pick out faults or weaknesses, they
will most likely be seen by outsiders.
Evaluation of quality systems
 The second body of review are Quality
auditors.
Quality Auditors
Internal:
First party: Your employees
External:
Second Party: Your customers
Third Party: Independent bodies
Documentations of quality
systems
 Quality aspect processes should be well
reviewed and documented in writing.
– This allows for easy reflect and review of past
procedures in looking to advance new ones.
– Also an easy way to document failure and causes,
which are used for reference.
Audits
 An audit is an inspection of the documents
and records that make up your quality
system.
 An audit may be done in advance of the
actual ISO 9000 audit.
– These are usually done by consultants, and
together with management, they try to iron out all
non conforming aspects.
Final Step
 The registration audit is the final step in
gaining ISO 9000 compliancy.
– After the inspection, the number and severity of
unconformities are reviewed and scrutinized, If the
overall scope of business operations and goal of
focus is not skewed then a certificate of
compliancy will most likely be granted.
