ISO Compliance: What Does It Mean?

ISO compliance refers to ISO 9001, a quality management standard used by organizations to prove that they provide services and/or products that meet certain requirements. These requirements are regulated by the ISO 9000 series which is the only quality standard that businesses can aspire to. ISO compliance applies to businesses irrespective of size or the industry they cater to. This is the most recent standard and it is constructed across 7 principles:

  1. Leadership
  2. Engagement
  3. Relationship management
  4. Improvements
  5. Approach to processes
  6. Client focus
  7. Decisions based on evidence

Businesses that are on ISO 9001:2008 should transition to the updated standard as soon as possible so that they can meet and maintain current quality standards. This includes any organization that trains and certifies other businesses.

Benefits of ISO 9001:2015 Compliance

Internal ISO compliance and certification

By acquiring ISO 9001:2015 compliance, it is understood that the business adheres to quality measures that ensure its products or services are superior to others. While adhering to said standards is not required by law, it does open opportunities for business that would otherwise be ignored.

With internal compliance, you prove that your organization is dedicated to following ISO rules and regulations. In order to make your business ISO compliant, your organization needs to be audited. This is typically conducted by an accreditation firm but the certification is provided by third parties, not ISO. The audit allows business owners and shareholders to detect weaknesses that can be taken care of before the certification process.

This is useful for businesses that have their ISO compliance certification due to certain shortcomings. Once the organization complies successfully, it can use the certification as a PR tool and have more influence in its industry. The compliance will ensure that customers and suppliers know that the business meets global quality standards and can be trusted.

However, after acquiring ISO certification for compliance, the business needs to submit audits on a regular basis to maintain its newly acquired status. This includes monitoring activities and maintaining documentation regarding all operations. This will ensure that the business has adequate documentation to maintain its quality standards as an ISO-compliant organization. By maintaining said standard, you can improve your brand image, boost sales and open more revenue streams by impressing investors.
