Understand each change. Plain-language explanations and examples show what it means for your QMS.
Update your existing procedures, forms and systems. Follow step-by-step instructions to find the affected content, make the edits and adjust the way you work.
Save work by keeping what works. Modify your established procedures and forms, preserve useful records and avoid rebuilding your QMS or creating duplicate paperwork.
Use the new forms where needed. All new forms are supplied in editable format, with guidance for fitting them into your existing system.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is the ISO 9001:2026 Upgrade Kit?
The 9001Simplified ISO 9001:2026 Upgrade Kit is a guide and editable forms for upgrading an existing ISO 9001:2015 quality management system. It explains the changes and provides step-by-step instructions for modifying existing procedures, forms and systems, along with replacement text and practical actions.
-
How do we upgrade from ISO 9001:2015 to ISO 9001:2026?
Work through each change in the guide, identify the affected parts of your QMS, update your existing procedures and forms, and introduce the changes into daily operations. Use the supplied new forms where needed and coordinate certification transition arrangements separately with your certification body.
-
Why modify our existing procedures instead of replacing them?
Modifying existing procedures is the fast, efficient approach because it builds on documents, workflows and controls your team already uses. Focus effort on the necessary changes, retain effective processes and avoid the extra work of rebuilding your QMS.
-
Does the kit include new forms and explain how to update our existing forms?
Yes. All new forms needed for the upgrade are included in editable format. The guide also explains how to modify your existing procedures, forms and systems. Use the supplied forms where needed, avoid duplicate records and leave completed historical records unchanged.
-
What file formats are included, and can we edit them?
The upgrade guide is supplied as a PDF, and the customizable forms are supplied as Microsoft Word files. Use a PDF reader for the guide and Microsoft Word to customize the forms. Follow the guide’s instructions and replacement text to update your existing documents.
-
Which Upgrade Kit edition should we choose?
Choose the Toolkit Edition if you use compatible 9001Simplified ISO 9001:2015 toolkit documentation and can still match the original instructions. Choose the General Edition for any other ISO 9001:2015 QMS, including documentation developed in-house or by a consultant. Both editions cover the same upgrade, include the same new forms and have the same price.
-
What if our 9001Simplified documents have been extensively rewritten?
Use the General Edition if the original instructions can no longer be matched to your documentation. It guides the same upgrade using your activities, ISO 9001:2015 clause references and wording clues in your own documents. Contact us if you are unsure whether an older toolkit version is compatible.
-
What support comes with the Upgrade Kit?
Expert email support is included throughout your upgrade. Ask our ISO 9001 team about adapting the guide to your QMS, updating your procedures and forms, and introducing the changes into practice.
-
Can we use the kit with a system older than ISO 9001:2015?
This kit is for an existing ISO 9001:2015 QMS. It is not intended as an upgrade route from earlier editions of the standard.
-
Does completing the kit update our ISO 9001 certificate?
