Benefits of a Formal Quality Management
System
Over
900,000 companies around the world, over 60,000 companies in North America, and over 5000
companies in Texas are now registered to the ISO 9001 standard. Every month in the US hundreds of companies are added to the list
of registered companies.
ISO 9000 is the international language
of quality with over 100 countries having adopted the standard. More and more companies
and government organizations are expecting their suppliers to conform to
the ISO standards.
Most companies
have adopted the standards in order to gain a marketing advantage or access to
new markets. As ISO 9001 registration has become more
common, it is now becoming a matter of survival and a blue print
for increased competitiveness.
A LRQA survey found that among companies that have been registered for
several years, 86% of the managers contacted reported that ISO 9000 improved
management control. Additionally, 79% reported improved efficiency, 75% reduced
waste, 71% improved market share, and 61% reported reduced costs.
