Recognised in all industry sectors all over the world, ISO 9001 is the international standard for quality management systems. It serves as a framework that allows any organisation of any size in any field to implement an effective quality management system (QMS) and consistently improve quality over time.
Planning and implementing an ISO 9001-compliant QMS is a smart move for any business owner because of the following benefits:
- It focuses efforts on delivering high-quality products/services and ensuring customer satisfaction
- It ensures that every part of your organisation is working towards the same goal
- It helps to eliminate waste throughout your operations
- It establishes a system for continuous improvement within your business
Once your QMS is in place, you will need to apply for ISO 9001 certification by using an independent UKAS-accredited body. Of course, you will still benefit from the implementation of a well-planned QMS even if you choose not to get certified, but gaining ISO 9001 certification is useful because:
- It is a requirement for winning work in certain sectors
- It forces you to maintain your QMS in order to pass surveillance audits
- Most importantly, it demonstrates to potential customers/clients that you are a high-quality business
