ISO 9001:2015 Handbook for Small and Medium-Sized Businesses, Third Edition by Denise E. Robitaille Pdf

This handbook was developed to help small and medium-sized organizations better understand ISO 9001:2015. It is intended to facilitate implementation and improvement. The establishment, implementation, and maintenance of an ISO 9001–compliant quality management system (QMS) should allow the organization to experience multiple benefits beyond the achievement of certification. Organizations should also see improvements in the quality of products, customer satisfaction, and process effectiveness—all of which ultimately have a positive impact on the bottom line. It is expected that some readers will have already established a QMS. This handbook will serve to reinforce good practices and will help you better understand the intent and value of some of the requirements of ISO 9001. Since the handbook is especially focused on small and medium-sized organizations, the examples that are provided will have greater applicability and will enhance comprehension, again resulting in increased value. Implementing a QMS in a small organization is not easier or harder than it is in a large one. Resources are different; each organization has its own unique challenges, constraints, and advantages. The thing to always bear in mind is that this is your organization and these are your processes. ISO 9001:2015 defines the requirements, but it does not dictate the method of application. Utilizing this handbook should allow you to develop or rejuvenate your QMS so that it is a benefit to both you and your customer.

ISO 9001:2008 for Small Businesses by Ray Tricker Pdf

According to the 2008 Small Business Economy report, there are 27 million small businesses in the US, providing half of the nation’s non-farm, private real gross domestic product (GDP). These small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) face tough operating challenges, particularly in difficult economic times, and quality management is essential to increase bottom-line results, save money and manage risks. ISO 9001 is the most well-known and widely followed quality management standard, and certification to this standard is often a prerequisite before small companies can get the contract to act as a partner or supplier. However, it is complicated, time-consuming and expensive to understand and implement the changes required to achieve certification, and this is a particular burden on small companies with less money to invest in such activity, fewer staff and less chance that the task of quality management will fall to a quality expert. This established book, now in its fourth edition, provides step-by-step, prescriptive guidance, tailored to the non-quality specialist, on how to approach quality management and certification to ISO 9001 in a cost and time effective way. It enables small businesses to reap the benefits of ISO 9001 certification with minimum effort and paperwork, and without the need for expensive consultancy or training that takes employees out of the office.

ISO 9001:2015 Explained by Charles A. Cianfrani,John (Jack) E. West Pdf

The 2015 edition of ISO 9001 has been modernized to update terminology and content to meet current and anticipated user needs. The major emphasis of ISO 9001:2015 is still consistent provision of products and services that meet customer and applicable statutory and regulatory requirements. This book explains the meaning and intent of the requirements of ISO 9001:2015 and discusses the requirements as they relate to each of the product categories. Where appropriate, it includes an elaboration of why the requirements are important. It also includes typical audit-type questions that an organization may consider to assess conformity to internal needs and ISO 9001 requirements. Recommendations for implementation are also included. This book addresses the needs of: Users and organizations seeking a general understanding of the contents of ISO 9001:2015 Users and organizations desiring guidance to ensure their ISO 9001:2015 QMS meets the new version requirements Users and organizations considering the use of ISO 9001:2015 as a foundation for the development of a comprehensive QMS Educators who require a textbook to accompany a training class or course on ISO 9001:2015 Auditors who desire to increase their level of auditing competence Authors Cianfrani and West, members of the expert group that developed ISO 9001:2015, strive to provide a context for all requirements to enable you to develop and deploy processes that will strengthen your QMS. Getting or retaining a certificate is not the real objective. Satisfied customers and organizational sustainability should be primary objectives for the organization.

ISO 9001:2015 in Plain English by Craig Cochran Pdf

ISO 9001 hasn't changed much in the last 15 years... until now! ISO 9001:2015 is a MAJOR revision. A LOT has changed. Requirements have been added and removed. Content has shifted to different sections and clauses. ISO 9001:2015 is built upon a completely different structure with the adoption of Annex SL. This may seem like a lot to take in, and it is. Fortunately, bestselling author Craig Cochran has translated ISO 9001:2015 into plain English that anyone can understand. Just as he did with the bestselling ISO 9001 in Plain English Cochran has written a comprehensive yet easily understandable guide to ISO 9001:2015. ISO 9001:2015 in Plain English was written so that anyone at any level of the organization can get to the heart of the standard’s requirements and how they apply to the organization quickly and simply. Plus, Cochran shows what has changed between the 2008 and 2015 version. This straightforward book is ideal for people who are new to ISO 9001:2015, experienced ISO coordinators who want to get more out of an established system as they transition to the new standard, and for employees who just need a basic understanding of what ISO 9001:2015 is and how it applies to them. Cochran explains each of ISO 9001:2015’s sections and clauses using real-world examples and frequently asked questions.
