ISO Standards make an enormous and positive contribution to most aspects of our lives.
ISO Standards ensure desirable characteristics of products and services such as quality, environmental friendliness, safety, reliability, efficiency and interchangeability - and at an economical cost.
When products and services meet our expectations, we tend to take this for granted and be unaware of the role of ISO standards. However, when standards are absent, we soon notice. We soon care when products turn out to be of poor quality, do not fit, are incompatible with equipment that we already have, are unreliable or dangerous.
When products, systems, machinery and devices work well and safely, it is often because they meet ISO standards. And the organization responsible for many thousands of the standards which benefit the world is ISO.
ISO Standards:
ISO 9001:2008 is an international Standard. It is one of the most widely known and internationally accepted models for a quality system, and the basis of many highly effective quality systems. The Standard can be applied to any size of company or organization, any industry and any country, for both services and products. The standard itself consists of a set of requirements. These requirements specify what a company must do, but not how to do it.
