Main Assignment due November 12th, 2020

Critical analysis of the changes to the ISO 9000 standard

Change is never easy. There has been a lot of discussion around the changes to ISO 9001:2015 vs earlier versions of the standard. Many in the industry feel ISO 9001:2015 has brought positive change as new elements are introduced while others feel it is a negative change on the standard or to their business. Who is right? Why?

1. Develop an essay on the changes in ISO 9001:2015; why you feel they are a positive &/or negative progression of the standard; and suggestions on how an organization can prepare for getting certified for the first time.

2. As a minimum your analysis should address:

· Overview of changes from ISO 9001:2008 to ISO 9001:2015

· Outline what you believe are positive and negative changes. Based on these changes, decide on if the revision was positive or negative overall.

· Analysis to support your decision

· Suggestions on how a company prepares for certification. Include the steps, tools, best practices, etc., an organization may use.

· Bibliography of supporting articles

3. Your analysis should be 4 full pages at a minimum (12 font), single space, excluding a supporting bibliography of maximum 3 references. You may choose to include flowcharts, graphs and images that are relevant.

4. References must be directly cited in your analysis. If you are unclear what this means, please ask.
