|
The Streamlining Manual is an advanced documentation template with customization instructions for your entire second-generation ISO 9001 documentation, including the quality manual, policies and procedures. Its unique features make the Streamlining Manual an ideal upgrade to the documentation of existing ISO 9001 quality management systems.
The Streamlining Manual covers all requirements of ISO 9001:2008 and combines all required documents into a fully integrated and comprehensive business manual. The included step-by-step customization instructions allow you to easily customize the documentation template and adapt it to your company's individual circumstances.
We designed the Streamlining Manual from the ground up to streamline and improve existing quality management systems; the text is concise and the processes are efficient. Note, however, that the Streamlining Manual is not recommended for those that are new to quality management systems (our Implementation Manual would serve them better). |
The Streamlining Manual will add most value in these situations:
•
Maintaining your ISO 9001 Certification:
You used our Implementation Manual to
train your employees and to set up a new ISO 9001
quality system; about 1-2 years later, you are
looking for the best way to meet the ISO 9001:2008
requirement to demonstrate improvement to your ISO 9001 quality management system.
The Streamlining Manual will make this
easy on you: just customize it following the included
customization instructions.
•
Improving any bureaucratic and inefficient ISO 9001 quality management system:
Many companies somehow ended up with an ISO 9001
quality management
system that is only
paperwork with no business value. Use our Streamlining Manual
to upgrade to a truly
business-friendly ISO 9001 quality
management system that is lean and efficient!
•
Upgrading an informal Quality
Management System:
If you don’t have a formal ISO 9001 quality management system but your company has already
implemented many of its requirements (for example, all business documents are controlled and show
revision numbers or dates, your company uses metrics to manage progress, etc.),
you will find our
Streamlining Manual the ideal tool to upgrade to
ISO 9001:2008.
The Streamlining Manual was
developed to fulfill the following goals:
1) Make any existing ISO 9001 quality
system as efficient as it can be and add operational value to the
company.
2) Make it easy on the employees:
user-friendliness is the key to success when improving any ISO 9001
quality management system.
3) And of course, meet all ISO 9001:2008 requirements.
The Streamlining Manual has been developed and fine-tuned over several years, it has successfully been used in over a thousand businesses worldwide, and it has passed countless independent audits. View
our numerous
certifications that back up our claims.
