The ISO 9001 quality management system also defines requirements for meeting customer
needs and overall customer satisfaction, rather than just adhering to product specifications.
That's because the quality of your products depends, ultimately, on whether and how well they
meet customer needs.
ISO stands for 'International Organisation for Standardisation'. Getting ISO accreditation means
that you've proved your services and processes are world-class in their quality, safety and
efficiency — hugely reassuring for both you and your clients.
The ISM Code focuses on the safe management and operation of ships and pollution
prevention. The ISO 9001 series is designed to ensure that customer requirements for quality
are met.
ISO 9000's definition of quality is “degree to which a set of inherent characteristics fulfils
requirement”. We often take this definition for granted. This blog will raise some questions
about this definition because it restricts the meaning of the term quality and it is unclear to what
this definition applies.
