The ISO 9001 standard provides a model for a quality management system that focuses on the effectiveness of processes in a business to achieve the desired results. The standard promotes the adoption of a process-based approach that emphasizes the requirements, added value, performance and effectiveness of the process, and continuous improvement through objective measurements.
The Quality Management System (QMS) acts as an instrument to help managers find and correct inefficient processes within the organization. In addition, ISO 9001 is a way to document the culture of the organization, allowing the business to grow while maintaining the quality of the goods and services provided.
