2. A set of procedures and policies for international quality certification of suppliers. ISO 9000 relates to QMS by: Improve customer satisfaction by fulfilling customer requirements. Achieve continual improvement of organizational performance and competitiveness.

3. Continually improve its processes, products, and services. Comply with regulatory requirements. The original objective of ISO 9000 was to ensure that the product or services provided by registered organizations were consistently fit for their intended uses. Management achieved this by featuring the following principles.

4. 1. Customer Focus 2. Leadership 3. Involvement of People 4. Process Approach 5. Systems Approach to Management 6. Continual Improvement 7. Factual Approach to Decision Making 8. Mutually Beneficial Supplier Relationships

5. Defines fundamental terms and definitions used in the ISO family.

6. Standard to assess ability to achieve customer service.

7. Guidelines to a company for continual improvements of its quality-management system.

8. No organization is required to use ISO 9000, but some customers may insist on registration. ISO 9001: 2000 sets the standards for Quality Management Systems conformity, but not how to implement it. An organization determines how to attain the requirements and if seeking registration must hire an accredited registrar firm to verify its conformance to ISO 9001: 2000.

9. Apply its QMS to its operations according to the standard and exactly as the QMS states. Continually assess the effectiveness of the QMS and make changes to improve it. Conduct periodic internal QMS audits. Submit to external (third party) surveillance audits at least annually by its registrar. Submit to a new registration audit every third year by registrar.

10. 3. 4. ACT Institutionalize Improvement; continue cycle 1. Plan Identify problem and develop plan for improvement 3. Study/Check Assess plan; is it working 2. Do Implement plan on a test basis

11. As stated in the ISO 9000: 2000’s guidelines a Quality Management System is a management system to direct and control an organization with regard to quality.

12. 1. A quality policy – This statement describes how the organization approaches quality. 2. The quality manual – This addresses each clause of the ISO 9001 standard. Also must demonstrate management responsibility for the operation of the quality system. 3. Quality objectives – The goals and the quality policy must be in agreement. Objectives are assigned to relevant functions and are supervised by to management.

13. 4. Quality Procedures – The procedures are a step by step description of what the company is required to meet the quality policy. Quality procedures can be part of the quality manual or reference in the manual. 5. Forms, records, ect. – These are the proof of activities required for the firm and the auditors to remain certified.

14. Once a organization aspires to be registered, they hire a registrar firm. This is usually a private company. These certification bodies are accredited by a accreditation body. Another level of the ISO conformity assessment is the Accreditation Forum composed of accreditation bodies, industry representatives, and other stakeholders. IFA is authorized from Article 6 of the World Trade Organization’s 1994 Agreement on Technical Barriers to Trade.

15. ISO 9000 is becoming what it claims to be, ‘the international standard for managing quality’ According to the ISO’s worldwide survey of ISO 9001 certificates, as per December 2008, “more than a million organizations in 179 countries had registered to ISO 9001”

18. China – the growing industrial super power:- The growth of ISO organizations in China,compared to the other countries with major economies like US, UK, Germany, and Japan is quite larger. Chinese organizations hold nearly as many ISO 9001 certificates as those in the US, Germany and Japan. Clearly, it shows that ISO9001 is the model selected by China to elevate the world’s perception of Chinese goods.

19. Recognized by Service sector:- few of years back ISO 9000 was widely considered to be applicable only to manufacturing sector. But, eventually considering that any service can be evaluated for suitability, effectiveness, performance and quality the service sector recognized the benefits of ISO 9000.

20. Of the 121,258 new registrations in year 2006, 33% of the organizations are from the service sector. ISO 9001’s generic requirements can apply to organization in any industry or in economic sector.

21. The organization that wants a conforming ISO 9000 QMS must go through the following steps, 1. Develop a quality manual. 2. Documentation. 3. Management’s commitment to QMS. 4. Customer requirements. 5. Hire an accredited registrar company.

22. 6. Registered or not, must conduct internal audits. 7. Periodic audits. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KP1bAsjI6eI&NR=1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzT- l7sdLtI&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzT- l7sdLtI&feature=related

23. Improved consistency of service and product performance : Guidelines provided by the standards establish a consistent approach to policy documentation. Controls are set forth in the standards in the areas of document control, Enhances customer responsiveness: ISO registration assists a company in developing and maintaining a competitive advantage over non- registered competitors.

24. Encourages continual improvement: The ISO series standards ensure this, by providing not only for the initial registration auditing, but on-going surveillance audits Acceptance of the system as a standard for ensuring quality in a global market

25. Originally developed in response to the need to harmonize dozens of national and international quality standards existing throughout the world. A world wide federation of national standard organizations from more than 158 nations, formed Technical committee to develop ISO 9000.

26. ISO 9000 includes American National Standards institute(ANSI). The first version of ISO 9000 was released in year 1987.

28. ISO 9000 Are not interchangeable. ISO 000 is compatible with, and can be viewed as subset of, TQM. ISO 9000 can improve operations in a Traditional Environment. ISO 9000 and TQM are not in competition.

29. ISO is concerned with QMS for design, development, purchasing, production, installations and servicing of products and services TQM is concerned with every aspect of the organization which include support systems like human resources, finance and marketing. TQM also means that org is responsible for developing the vision, establishing guiding principles and setting a strategy and tactics in achieving the vision.

30. The degree to which the total organization is involved TQM requires involvement of all functions and levels of org is involved. ISO 9000 does not require the QMS to include functions and levels that play only indirect roles in the management and execution of product or service.

32. ISO 9000 and TQM are not quite the same. But ISO can be viewed as a part of larger TQM environment. There are many organizations that have successfully included ISO as part of a larger total quality effort and it is simple to follow ISO 9000 for the organizations that are already at some level of TQM.

33. Traditional environment means an organizational environment that has persisted in companies for decades. Traditional org environment still operates according to the “old way of doing things” rather than according to principles of TQM

34. Organizations can adopt to either of them or both ISO 9000 and TQM. Both have worthwhile and similar aims. Both support each other and are complementary. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=leVtLumjW7w

35. To improve operations by implementing a quality management system. To create or improve quality management system. To improve product or service quality or the consistency of quality. To improve customer satisfaction. To improve competitive posture.

36. ISO 9000 and TQM working together MOVEMENT from ISO 9000 to TQM and Vice Versa ISO 9000 as an entry into TQM ISO 9000 can give an organization a head start in implementing TQM

37. Credibility of the Standard Updating ISO 9000 The three FDIS (Final Draft International Standards) which have been published are the following: ISO/FDIS 9000, Quality management systems - Fundamentals and vocabulary ISO/FDIS 9001, Quality management systems - Requirements ISO/FDIS 9004, Quality management systems - Guidelines for performance improvements
