ISO 9001 – QMS, Quality
Management System
The ISO 9000 series of standards represent an international consensus on good management practices that apply to
any industry or organization, whether manufacturing or service-based. The
primary goal of the standards is to supply guidelines on what constitutes an
effective business management system that can serve as the framework for
continuous improvement. The challenge is developing a management system that
provides just the right amount of information to provide structure and good
communication in your organization while helping you improve to stay competitive
in today’s changing world.
What QPA can do to help you develop and implement ISO
9001:
- Complete a gap analysis that identifies what you do and don’t already have in
place
- Work with your Management Team to identify how a well documented management
system can be a tool to help run the company
- Define goals and objectives appropriate to your organization
- Work with your people to define the processes/methods that all activities should
follow
- Organize and document your processes and systems
- Assist you in implementing new support processes
- Develop methods to measure and monitor processes
- Implement continuous improvement into your management system
- Assist you in integrating this management system into others you may already
have
- Assist you in developing an internal auditor program
- Help you hire a registrar
“QPA was a critical partner in the successful implementation of our ISO 9001
Quality Management System. Because of Kristine’s vast experience in implementing
Quality Management Systems, we were able to achieve ISO certification in a
record nine months. Her team driven methodology, and her attention to detail
allowed us to create a system that is a perfect fit for Japs-Olson’s Continuous
Improvement Program. Kristine also helped us to build stronger teams within our
company and helped to break down many of the silos that exist in a large company
like ours.”
