ISO 9001 Quality Management System

​

What

​

ISO 9001 is based on the idea of continual improvement. It is designed to be flexible enough for use by many different types of organization, so does not specify what the objectives relating to “quality” or “meeting customer needs” should be. Instead, it requires organizations to define these objectives themselves and continually improve their processes in order to reach them. Once these targets have been attained, they must be reassessed, in a quest for continual improvement. (source: www.iso.org)

Nowadays, organizations have taken the initiatives to set up a certified ISO 9001 quality management system on their own, either 

to fulfil customers’ demands and requirements or to enhance the quality of their product/ services.
