What is the ISO standard for a quality management system (QMS)? ISO 9001:2105 certification

  • ISO 9001 is the world’s most widely recognised standard for a quality management system (QMS), with the latest edition, ISO 9001:2015, published on 23 September 2015.
  • The ISO standard helps organisations consistently meet the needs of customers and other key stakeholders in the delivery and continuous improvement of products and services.

With over 1.1 million certificates issued worldwide, ISO 9001 is a tool to streamline processes and make them more efficient. On the ISO 9001 website, acting ISO Secretary-General Kevin McKinley explains: “ISO 9001 allows organisations to adapt to a changing world. It enhances an organisation’s ability to satisfy its customers and provides a coherent foundation for growth and sustained success.”

Benefits of attaining ISO 9001:2015 certification

PharmOut decided to embark on the ISO 9001:2015 certification process to maximise the value of services to our clients in a practical way. In particular, we liked the change in focus of the 2015 standard to a practical outcome or evidence-based focus and less paperwork for the sake of paperwork.
