What is ISO 9001?
ISO 9001:2015 is the international standard for quality management systems. It provides a framework for organisations to consistently deliver products and services that meet customer and regulatory requirements. Over 1 million organisations worldwide are certified.
The standard follows a Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle and requires organisations to demonstrate leadership commitment, risk-based thinking, process management, and continual improvement. Certification is awarded by UKAS-accredited bodies following a successful Stage 1 and Stage 2 audit.
