General features of the new ISO series • ISO 9001: 2000: revised quality assurance system (replaces former ISO 9000, 9001, 9002 and 9003 standards of 1994) and provides framework to integrate more specialised ISO norms (environment, work and safety, etc.) New features of the revised 2000 series • less documentation • more attention to results, in particular measurement of customer satisfaction • more focus on commitment of managers • more focus on staff participation • ISO 9004:2000 – recommendation of self-assessment (to go beyond external certification and strive for continuous improvement)

  6. Preconditions and benefits of a certification • What needs to be in place (basics of a performance management system) • Vision, strategy, action plan • Quality policy for staff (e.g. a code of conduct on quality) • Clear idea of the legal framework (laws, regulations, etc.) • Handbook of the agency with a description of processes, forms, checklists, etc. • Benefits of a certified management system • Processes are clearly structured, less interfaces • Clear definitions of responsibilities of staff (insure that other staff can perform tasks) • Continuous improvement > external view (annual audits, comparisons, etc.) • Further developments • SQS 9004 and NPO-Label for Management Excellence • for best practice (within a TQM framework)
