Quality management ISO 9001
Your security as a strategic success factor
Efficient quality management (QM) is essential in today’s competitive landscape. ISO 9001 offers a systematic approach that ensures that products and processes meet the requirements of your customers. With the PDCA cycle (Plan-Do-Check-Act), ISO 9001 enables continuous improvement and creates transparent structures in your company.
5 elements of information security
What is quality management according to ISO 9001?
Quality management in accordance with ISO 9001 focuses on customer requirements and optimally aligns organizational structures and processes. The international standard is based on the high-level structure of the ISO standards – this enables easy integration with other management systems such as information security management (ISMS) or integrated management systems (IMS).
The essential principles of ISO 9001 include
- Continuous improvement: permanent optimization of processes and minimization of errors
- Avoiding waste: efficient use of resources
- Quality-related cost control: Identification and controlling of all quality-related costs
- Product liability and product safety: ensuring compliance with the law and standards
- Product and process development: Integrated cooperation of all relevant disciplines in the manufacturing process
- Collaboration in the team: clear responsibilities for optimal processes
