[edit] Huh?
This article has a lot of verbage but dosnt seem to say anything informative. Its as if you had an article about bananas that said everything you could possibly say about bananas EXCEPT describing an actual banana. Why not include the ISO 9001 list of eight quality management principles given here: http://www.iso.org/iso/qmp Obviously could be copyright problems if they were just copied, but I have seen them elsewhere on the web. 2.101.12.198 (talk) 12:36, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
[edit] Content from Standards.org
I have twice added a reference to the ISO 9001 content on Standards.org, a portal that support international standards and provides valuable information on the ISO 9001 management scheme. Whenever this link is added, it is subsequently removed by someone else as apparent 'link spam'. I think this content should be reviewed as it provides more specialist content on the management scheme than what is available on Wikipedia. (87.194.223.119 (talk) 11:43, 19 August 2011 (UTC))
[edit] Misleading phrase?
A company can intend to produce a poor quality product and providing it does so consistently and with the proper documentation can put an ISO 9001 stamp on it.
This is not correct for two reasons:
- A company with an ISO 9001 system may produce a product of inferior quality only if it conforms to the requirements of its customers. It cannot produce an inferior product and misrepresent it with a false statement of conformity. So a steel mill may produce and sell rimmed steel under a ISO 9001 system, however it may not mislabel it as semi-killed steel.
- It is not allowed to put an ISO 9001 stamp on a product, as this standard does not contain requirements and specifications for any product and ISO 9001 certification does not imply anything specific about the product. For example seamless steel pipe is stamped with a product specification like "SA-106 Grade B" or "EN 10216 P235GH" etc, not with "ISO 9001". Most certification bodies issue a non-conformity if they see an unqualified "ISO-9001" mark on a product, product packaging or laboratory report.

[edit] Isn't there a rule against self-promotion?
This articles sounds an awful lot like self-promotion for the company that invented ISO 9000, and the only way I've ever even heard of it, whatever it is, is from a company selling it. Article should be deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.179.30.11 (talk) 15:29, 13 January 2012 (UTC)
