ISO9001:2015, Quality management systems— Requirements 1Scope This International Standard specifies requirements for a quality management system when an organization: needs to demonstrate its ability to consistently provide products and services that meet customer and applicable statutory and regulatory requirements, and aims to enhance customer satisfaction through the effective application of the system, including processes for improvement of the system and the assurance of conformity to customer and applicable statutory and regulatory requirements. All the requirements of this International Standard are generic and are intended to be applicable to any organization, regardless of its type or size, or the products and services it provides. NOTE1 In this International Standard, the terms “product” or “service” only apply to products and services intended for, or required by, a customer. NOTE2 Statutory and regulatory requirements can be expressed as legal requirements. This document provides guidance for organizations in the application of ISO9001:2015 to the acquisition, supply, development, operation and maintenance of computer software and related support services. It does not add to or otherwise change the requirements of ISO9001:2015. AnnexA provides a table pointing to additional guidance on the implementation of ISO9001:2015, available in ISO/IECJTC1/SC7, ISO/IECJTC1/SC27 and ISO/TC176 International Standards. The guidelines provided in this document are not intended to be used as assessment criteria in quality management system registration/certification. However, some organizations can consider it useful to implement the guidelines proposed in this document and can be interested in knowing whether the resultant quality management system is compliant or not with this document. In this case, an organization can use both this document and ISO9001 as assessment criteria for quality management systems in the software domain.
