Three Things You Should Know About ISO 2015

  1. Timing: ISO 9001: 2015 was released last year, and while the final deadline is 2018; no new certificates will be issued after June 2017. So, depending on your certification date, you may most likely need to comply with 2015 if you have a surveillance or recertification audit after June 2017.
  2. Requirements: There are significant changes to the standard that will require new processes, new training and new execution. You will need time to build history to the new system so don’t delay starting!
  3. Don’t Wait: There are over 2 million companies globally that are ISO registered, and all 2 million of them have the same deadline for ISO 2015, so you will be competing with them for your registrar’s time. Don’t wait until the last minute or your registrar may not be available when you need them and you risk a certification lapse.ISO 2015
