Quality Systems without the Bureaucracy

Background

There has been a major overhaul of the ISO 9001 standards so it now reflects what current software companies need and encourages them to use a Quality System to improve the way they operate. Because the emphasis is no longer manufacturing specific, and adopts a process model approach, software companies can now relate to the ISO principles far more easily.

Some of the key benefits to software companies include:

• no bureaucracy, only 6 core procedures are now required.
• the use of diagrams (process models) rather than text which makes it much more intuitive to use.
• much greater emphasis on producing relevant records from the key processes to ensure the effectiveness of the quality system.
• continuous improvement now regarded as a normal course of action.
• using the quality system to meet your customers needs.

The Event

The event will focus on the ISO 9001 standard and how to use it to maximize the benefits for your company. The Agenda for the event will be:

• Overview of the new standard
• Advantages of the Process Model approach
• How an ISO Quality System can provide tangible benefits to the business
• Potential problems and how to avoid them
• Experiences with the new standard so far
• How CSE can help
