What is ISO 9001?

ISO 9001 is the international standard for a quality management system (QMS).  In order to be certified to the ISO 9001 standard, a company must follow the requirements set forth below ISO 9001 Standard. The standard is used to consistently provide products and services that meet customer and regulatory requirements and to demonstrate continuous improvement.

The current version is ISO 9001:2015

  • No matter what size your organization is: It will be 1 person or 1 million people.
  • No matter what industry you are in – it can be a restaurant, consultancy, manufacturing company, Engineering, etc.
  • It is not a standard for products. It does not specify any product quality.  
  • It is not a personal Standard – a person cannot get certified to ISO 9001, instead, an organization or company become certified to ISO 9001.
  • To become ISO 9001 certified, your company must follow the steps to implement an ISO 9001:2015 Quality management system.
  • Then a Certification Body Audits the performance of your organization against the ISO 9001:2015 Requirements. If you pass this audit, the Certification Body issues an ISO 9001:2015 Certificate for a 3 years period.
  • Finally, the organization must be re-certified every 3 years to maintain their ISO 9001 certification status.
