Policy & Procedure Manager Helps You Comply With ISO 9000 Standards
One area that ISO 9000 auditors focus heavily on is the standardization of quality policies and Quality Management System (QMS) procedures. This area of document management is very difficult for many organizations that find their quality policies and procedures continually out of date or see their staff use procedures that have been recently revised or are no longer in service.
Policy & Procedure Manager is an excellent tool for helping organizations stay on top of their policy and procedure development and management processes. It will track which documents are due for review and who has read relevant policies. Since policies and procedures are distributed via the web, all employees can access the latest version of the document rather than having an outdated procedure which could cause legal problems. As many companies discover during a QMS audit, an ISO 9001 auditor does not look favorably upon quality management documents that are outdated or out of circulation. A Corrective Action will most always be assigned by the auditor.

ISO 9000 Overview
ISO 9000 refers to a family of standards used in many different industries around the world for their quality management systems. ISO 9001:2000 in particular is the most widely adopted standard for quality process measurement and quality process auditing in use today. The main emphasis of ISO 9001:2000 is quality process management standardization. The philosophy of ISO 9000 is that if an organization’s quality management system is standardized in its processes (such as the identification of quality objectives, the formalization of quality policies, and the management of quality procedures), the organization will continue to improve its output quality, have lower error rates and more satisfied customers.
