ISO 9001 Quality Management

A quality management system according to ISO 9001 is the ideal basis from which to demonstrate your competence and performance capability, both nationally and internationally. One fundamental advantage is that the standard can be applied across all sectors – both for production companies and service providers.

Often, several management systems exist within one organisation. In addition to quality management, these may concern environmental, energy and also occupational safety and health management. ISO 9001 can be combined with other certifications into an integrated management system through the "High Level Structure of Standards" (HLS).

Internal operating procedures and work processes and also allocation of responsibilities within the organisation are addressed, along with regulation of processes when working together with customers and business partners. This ensures global comparability and also compatibility with other management systems.  

ISO 9001 has undergone complete revision in order to adapt to the increasing complexity of the markets and their environment. The focus of the new version of 2015 no longer lies on documentation, but on process outputs and their effectiveness. In addition, the new version of ISO 9001 allows organisations greater flexibility with regard to implementation of their management systems. For example, the standard has adapted to today’s business reality by opening the possibility of computer - or web -based documentation.
