Understanding ISO 9000 and Implementing the Basics to Quality
by D H Stamatis
Published 8 August 1995
This work examines the evolution and rationale of the ISO 9000 series of standards, their structure, interpretation and relationship to other quality systems. Theory and applications are provided, and the author explains how to put the standards into place and achieve quality. Specific methods and tools for the implementation of the ISO standards that lead to certification and certification maintenance are supplied.
Offering a model, an implementing strategy, as well as traditional and nontraditional methods for the successful enhancement and maintenance of quality, this work establishes a rationale for the continuation of Total Quality Management (TQM) in all organizations. It considers leading quality-related topics, such as unusual charts, supplier-organization-customer relationships, customer needs and expectations, instructional design, adult learning, advanced quality planning, and reliability.
