ISO 9001:2015 Strategic approach to risk-based thinking

ISO 9001 is the most widely adopted standard in the world, which forms the foundation for a system of processes required to achieve customer satisfaction.

ISO 9001:2015 introduces the new concept of context of the organization. This requires your organization to determine the issues and requirements that can impact on the planning of your Quality Management System (QMS).

The standard also requires your organization to consider:

alignment of the QMS with the strategic direction of your organization
determining the processes needed to achieve your intended outcomes
addressing risks and opportunities arising from the context of your organization
