ISO 9001 Registration Needs Management’s Commitment

While most decisions to seek ISO 9001 certification come from the company’s top managers, gaining the true value from the program needs much more of their support. Increasingly, successful companies use ISO 9001 to improve overall operations and to enfranchise all stakeholders, including suppliers and customers. Why ISO 9001 can fulfill this role has a lot to do with the goals that upper managers set for the program and the tools they provide to integrate it into existing business operations. Companies that use inputs from customers and suppliers often see the largest gains in overall value from ISO 9001 certification. While it may seem obvious, many certification efforts are undermined by the lack of priority given to them among the company’s daily activities. By realizing why ISO 9001 certification can contribute directly to profits, much faster and more complete results can be obtained. Specific internal and external goals to be reached from the program can include:

  • Exploiting new opportunities, not just reacting to market dictates or competition
  • Fully supporting the concept of a repeatable, continuously improving the quality system
  • Increased profitability, efficiency, customer satisfaction, supplier participation, and employee involvement, and lower overall costs and liability
  • Faster problem solving and more useable data to help make improvements
  • Better communications, both internally and outside the organization (with key stakeholders including investors, customers, suppliers and sometimes regulators)
  • Increased respect and enthusiasm for what the company does and how it participates in its markets and in the communities in which it has a major presence
