Steps followed for the certificate obtention
- Starting point. The first stage of the process is to realize the importance of implementing a quality management system. Faced to all of the stakeholders, enhances the image and reputation of the company, and also allows the company to create a system of continuous improvement to help in the day to day procedures to provide a standardized quality services.
- Planning the system. Both, the implementation process as the system itself must be planned. I have to analyze the different departments that will be included within the scope of the ISO, the processes and people involved and from there, start the overall planning.
- Quality training. The system is particular to this specific organization and, therefore, someone competent is required within the company for its implementation and development. Thus, the processes and the Quality Manual will be customized and adapted to the particularities and idiosyncrasies of the company.
- System documentation. Documentation is the support of the processes and ensures the effectiveness and repeatability of them. Actually, the quality certificate focuses on “do what you say you do” so you must document the processes and establish standardized action methods which can provide an adequate service to customers, carrying out all tasks required by the system and the norm.
- Internal audit. A fundamental requirement of ISO 9001 is conducting an internal audit, during the course of the meeting, all the requirements contained in the reference standard and the quality management system are checked.
- Certification audit. Once checked that the system works correctly and has been implemented in its entirety, we can request an the external audit in order to get the certificate. This entity is responsible for providing the certificate if all requirements are set.
