ISO 9000-2000 Quality Standard
The ISO 9001:2000 Standards are based on eight quality management principles as follows:
- Customer Focus
- Leadership
- Involvement of People
- Process Approach
- System Approach to Management
- Continuous Improvement
- Factual Approach to Decision Making
- Mutually Beneficial Supplier Relationships
The figure given below shows the Process Model, which conceptually presents the Quality Management System requirements.
