Designing and Implementing an Effective Quality Management System (QMS)

Description:

A QMS is a coordinated set of values and processes implemented by an organization to ensure that it meets the standards demanded by its customers and any key stakeholders. The ISO 9001:2015 standard is the relevant international standard that sets out the broad requirements of a quality management system.

A fully operational QMS will help an organization to meet key operational targets and demonstrate to any interested parties that it has achieved those goals. It will show that your organization consistently meets customer requirements, consistently manages internal requirements and consistently manages external requirements, e.g. the effective allocation of resources.

This training will discuss the benefits of implementing a QMS. It will describe how a QMS supports an organization and what a QMS requires. This training will provide guidance for operating in a controlled environment and instruct attendees on the steps to take in order to implement an effective and robust Quality Management System.
