Book excerpt: To succeed in today's high-stakes international marketplace, U.S. companies have to be tougher - and better - than their competition. And that means measuring up to the quality standards that the European community and most industrialized countries have adopted to judge suppliers and partners by: the ISO 9000 Series. But when it actually comes down to becoming certified to the ISO (International Organization for Standardization) 9000 standard, many companies are at a loss. In The ISO 9000 Book, authors John T. Rabbitt and Peter A. Bergh demystify the process of complying with this quality standard by laying out the basics of what ISO 9000 is, what it means to your organization, how it fits into your overall quality efforts, and why you may be required to apply. Their practical firsthand advice is based on their quality improvement experiences at The Foxboro Company, one of the first U.S. companies to become fully certified to ISO 9001. The book covers every aspect of ISO 9000 certification, from the preparation to the final audit. In clear, nontechnical terms, the authors show you how to interpret the standard for your business; determine the cost and the length of time you need to invest in the certification process; achieve compliance and certification quickly through a 14-step process; focus on the areas of quality assurance that are subject to a rigorous audit during certification, such as management responsibility, design control, corrective action, and training; and gauge your organization's readiness. Certification to the ISO 9000 series quality standards adds a major competitive advantage to your organization. This useful guide shows you how to meet the ISO 9000 challenge andlead your business down the path to world-class excellence.

Download or read book The Quality Systems Manual written by Terence J. Hall and published by . This book was released on 1995-10-16 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the past four years, a committee of professional interests representing industry, academia, consumers and governments has been meeting to develop a definitive standard to take Quality Systems into the 21st century. In July 1994 ISO 9000 was announced to the world. This is the ISO 9000 Family (9001/2/3) as it tends to be called. There is now an even greater demand from companies to gain formal accreditation ? particularly since the standard has worldwide recognition. The Quality Systems Manual is a detailed and definitive guide to the installation and maintenance of an ISO 9001 Quality System within a company. It is an intensely practical guide, laid out to follow the exact format of the 20 clauses of ISO 9001. It explains in plain English exactly how they should be applied to your business. The official ISO 9001 paper provides only a slim seven-page statement of the basic requirements that have to be met by a Quality System; it supplies none of the required methodology. It tells you what but not how. The missing link between the rules and successful registration comes from knowing how to take the 20 clauses and apply them to everyday business situations. This is where The Quality Systems Manual is so valuable. It is relevant for every industry, whether manufacturing or service, and will be used by Quality Managers, and those assigned to implement and maintain this new standard. Because it is designed as a practical guide to enable companies to register, there is a special section called Preparing for Assessment which covers all the nuances needed to optimise the chance of success when being formally assessed. TickIT (ISO 9000-3), the equivalent standard for software development, is also examined in detail and shows precisely how it integrates with ISO 9001. It has been calculated that a third of the cost a company incurs in achieving registration is spent on fees for consultants to help explain the rules and prepare for assessment. For the cover price of The Quality Systems Manual you could buy yourself about one hour of a consultant?s time.
