Frequently asked questions

What is ISO 9001?

ISO 9001 is an internationally recognized standard for quality management systems (QMS) developed by the International Organization for Standardization. It sets out criteria for organizations to consistently meet customer and regulatory requirements, improve processes, and enhance customer satisfaction.

How does a QMS internal audit checklist help with ISO 9001 compliance?

The checklist provides a clear framework for assessing your processes against ISO 9001 requirements. By following each step, you can spot non-conformities, document corrective actions, and demonstrate due diligence during external audits. This reduces the risk of non-compliance and supports continuous improvement efforts.

What are key indicators that your current QMS internal audit process needs improvement?

If you’re seeing recurring non-conformities, inconsistent audit results between sites, delayed responses to issues, or incomplete records, it’s a sign your audit process may need to be updated or better aligned with your operations.

What are the risks of not conducting regular QMS internal audits?

Without regular audits, companies risk falling out of compliance, missing process failures, and facing potential penalties or loss of certification. It can also result in lower product or service quality, which may impact customer satisfaction and business reputation.
