Quality Management
ISO Compliance Tool Box

Even if you are quite familiar with the old ISO 9000, you will likely find much of the new standard confusing.  No more will you find those "20 Elements" that were the foundation of the old standards. And to make it even more confusing, there are dozens of new terms to learn, eight new Quality Management Principles, plus a whole different perspective for quality thinking called "The Process Approach".

There are no more alternate 9001, 9002 and 9003 models by which to plan your quality system.  Instead, you are now required to decide which requirements of the new ISO standard apply to you and which do not.  Any exclusions must be fully explained and the justification documented.

e-Check's interactive definitions, guidance notes and examples will help you find your way and make sense of the new ISO standard.  

Many valuable Uses

You will find e-Check useful in many different ways.  Its paraphras-ed checkpoints, pop-up context-specific notes and hyperlinked cross-references are extremely useful as a tutorial for understanding the new ISO Standard's structure and requirements. 

A printed copy of e-Check is an excellent tool for self-assessment and "gap analysis" to help determine where you are now, and what needs to be done.   It can also be used as a planning guide for mapping out your conformity project and estimating resource requirements.

Later on as the project progresses, frequent use of e-Check as an audit tool will simplify measurement of progress and help keep your project on track.
