Getting You There
Field Experts employs International Organization of Standardization (ISO) criteria for the development of Quality Systems. ISO 9000 is the internationally accepted quality standard and has been developed by technical committees around the world.
The following outlines the critical path of the development and implementation of an ISO 9000 Quality System. In order to help your company achieve certification, Field Experts will:
- Review the current operation and business structure of your facility;
- Provide an introductory session in ISO 9000 requirements and instruct in the preparation of job descriptions and work instruction style documentation;
- Audit the completed job descriptions and work instructions and prepare the structure for the policies and procedures manual;
- Write the first draft of the policy and procedures manual to meet ISO 9000 standards incorporating the existing documented work instructions;
- Submit first draft of manuals for review and approval. Prepare final draft of documentation and audit manuals for compliance to ISO 9000 requirements;
- Train staff on the policies, procedures and work instruction manuals and receive feedback as to the accuracy of the documentation;
- Conduct a simulated third party audit of the implemented Quality System utilizing qualified auditors;
- Make final adjustments to the Quality System to prepare for certified third party audit.
