ISO Navigator
Interpreting principles and requirements
With over 80 separate screens explaining ISO 9000:2005 and ISO 9001:2008; you can use the simple menus to navigate the complex requirements from your desktop, laptop or tablet, via your browser. The database divides ISO 9000 and ISO 9001 into four sections, Plan, Do, Check and Act:
Plan - Criteria & Methods
Define the criteria and methods needed to ensure that both the operation and control of your processes are effective. This is often implemented using stated objectives, work instructions or procedures as required for consistent process output. This is the 'Plan' part of the PDCA process.
PLAN |
|---|
Do - Availability of Resources
Ensure the availability of resources and information necessary to support the operation and monitoring of your processes. This may be through management review or other methods that define resource requirements. This is the 'Do' part of the PDCA process.
DO |
|---|
Check - Monitor, Measure & Analyze
All identified processes must be subject to the requirements of monitoring, measurement and analysis. The methods employed and the timing of such analysis should be based upon priorities established by the organization. This is the 'Check' part of the PDCA process. Monitor, measure and analyse process performance.
CHECK |
|---|
Act - Implement Actions
Implement actions necessary to achieve the planned results, and for the continual improvement of those processes. Auditors will expect to see evidence that corrective action is taken when measurable objectives fall below target or a defined action level. This is the 'Act' part of the PDCA process
ACT |
|---|
The page menu then sub divides each section into Principles, Base Clauses and Requirements:
ISO 9000 Quality Principles |
ISO 9001 Bases Clauses |
ISO 9001 Requirements |
|---|---|---|
These are the concepts at the heart of quality management |
The ISO 9001 base clauses relate to the ISO 9000 principles |
The requirements must be implemented and maintained |
