Body

The 2015 version of ISO 9001 is still more than a year away from publication, but ISO/TC 176, the technical committee responsible for the standard, has been hard at work on the revision since 2012. Registrants to the current version, ISO 9001:2008, are wondering about changes to the language and intent of the revision, and the committee draft version, out since the middle of last year, offers some clues as to the shape the standard will be taking.

Goals

Although the revised standard will not change the current requirements, it will standardize the language as well as the approaches to management. The revision has several goals:
• Provide a stable framework of requirements for the next 10 years. Based on the introduction of eight major quality management principles:
1. Improved consistency with traceability
2. Enhanced customer focus
3. Focused leadership
4. The involvement of people
5. A system approach to management
6. Continual improvement
7. A factual approach to decision making
8. Mutually beneficial supplier relationships

Much Ado About Nothing?

According to the registration actors, the Standard won't be published until late 2015. For the time being only the CD is circulated and - although even in the recent history of ISO, Standards went never much away from their CD's - all too many a conjecture is made on the CD itself. QD itself has published a number of specific articles, last but not least the 10/09/2013 "Beethoven's Fifth and ISO 9001:2015 - An Expert's View", under my own signature. There'll be the usual transition period and - as I'm suggesting since years - registrars and consultants should better refer to ISO for interpretation.
