ISO 9001 Overview

ISO 9001:2015 is a quality standard by which many manufacturing supply chains operate. It is also the foundation for industry specific quality standards, such as IATF 16949 (automotive) and AS 9100 (aerospace).

Over the years, ISO 9001 has become a pertinent criterion, sometimes a requirement, for accessing the supply chain of larger organizations. However, before embarking on the ISO 9001 implementation journey, it is essential to understand the purpose of the standard and the expectations to establishing and maintaining a quality management system. In this 3-hour workshop, SCMEP Process Improvement Coach, Stephen Deas, will provide an overview of the ISO 9001:2015 Standard, including:

• Systems & Processes
• PDCA Cycle
• Process Approach
• Risk-Based Thinking
• ISO 9001:2015 Elements

Who Should Attend?

Business owners, quality management staff, or any manufacturing employee seeking a deeper understanding of the ISO 9001 quality standard will benefit from this session. Specifically, business owners who have been asked by a customer to consider adopting ISO 9001 are strongly encouraged to attend.
