ISO 9001 is an International Quality Management System (QMS) Standard. It first became popular in Europe and has since grown to become a true global Quality Management Standard.

ISO is a Greek word which means "equal". ISO stands for International Organization for Standardization. It is a world wide federation of National Standards, with 100's of Countries involved.

ISO was founded in 1946 Geneva Switzerland. ISO 9001 was first published in 1987, then 1994, 2000, 2008 and now the latest version is dated September 2015.

In Canada, ISO 9000 is represented by the Standards Council of Canada (SCC) and in the US, it is represented by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).

ISO 9001 applies to all types of organizations, businesses and industries. It doesn't matter how big they are or what they do. It can help any business whether it is a product or service oriented organization achieve its quality goals - customer satisfaction. ISO 9001 Registration (certification) is recognized and respected throughout the world.

ISO 9001 requires a standard language for documenting your QMS practices. It is a system to track and manage evidence that these practices are instituted throughout the organization and it includes a third-party auditing model to review, certify and maintain registration of companies.
