2.1 Stakeholder requirements matrix for QMS. The first step is to identify who are your
stakeholders in relation to your quality management system. Stakeholders can be anyone
who is affected by, or can affect, your quality performance, such as customers, suppliers,
employees, managers, regulators, competitors, or partners. You can use a simple matrix to
plot your stakeholders on two axes: high or low interest, and high or low influence. This
will help you to group your stakeholders into four categories: key players, keep satisfied,
keep informed, and minimal effort. The stakeholders of any company are interested in the
well-being of that company and can include employees, board members, stockholders,
suppliers, distributors, customers, and the community. Define the specific roles and
responsibilities of different stakeholders, from leadership to employees, suppliers, and
customers, emphasizing how each contributes to the success of the ISO 9001 quality
management system.
2.2 Stakeholder requirements monitoring report. Feedback and input should be used to
identify the strengths and weaknesses of the QMS, the opportunities and threats for
improvement, and the satisfaction and expectations of the interested parties. By soliciting
