One morning, Sarah sat down with the production lead, Marcus. Marcus was frustrated. "The standard says we need to 'determine the necessary competence' for our staff," Marcus said, pointing at his dog-eared copy of ISO 9001. "But it doesn't give me a single example of how to document that for a high-precision lathe operator without creating a mountain of useless paperwork" [5.10, 5.24].
The ISO 9000 family of standards was first introduced in 1987, and since then, it has undergone several revisions. The current version of ISO/TS 9002 is based on the 2015 revision of ISO 9001, which is the most widely used quality management standard.
Keep in mind that purchasing the official PDF from the ISO website or a reputable standards body ensures you have the most up-to-date and accurate version.
