Who is ISO certification for?
ISO:9001 provides a practical Quality Management System for improving and monitoring all areas of a business. A business can build a positive reputation for reliability and consistency when it ensures a level of consistent quality in its products or services.
When establishing and maintaining a strategically viable quality system, senior management defines the roles played by groups, departments, or functions within the organization using risk/benefit analysis to determine the best fit in terms of logistics, costs, and capabilities.
While there are many skills and responsibilities needed to continuously improve a quality system, the main ones apply to people in four roles:
- executive management
- functional/departmental management
-
management representative
-
quality assurance/quality control functions
OCSC can support the executive management by acting as the management representative. We can then be an honest broker, not employed directly, overseeing and auditing the system and giving genuine feedback.
A strategic quality system requires open communication and genuine commitment for the good of the organization. In addition to establishing priorities and providing resources to accomplish required activities, management must lead by example. A business can build a positive reputation for reliability and consistency when it ensures a level of consistent quality in its products or services. This bolsters consumer trust and confidence in the business and helps the business compete with others in the same market. At the same time, doing so with minimal business risk.
