Miami Valley Steel is proud to have been re-certified as an ISO 9001:2015 company! This is the latest revision of the quality management standard known as ISO 9001.
The 2015 revision was a significant revision that has been called “beginning of a new era in the development of quality management systems.” by specialists in the field.
Some of the new enhancements include:
- Greater emphasis on building a management system suited to each organization’s particular needs
- A requirement that those at the top of an organization be involved and accountable, aligning quality with wider business strategy
- Risk-based thinking throughout the standard makes the whole management system a preventive tool and encourages continuous improvement
- Less prescriptive requirements for documentation: the organization can now decide what documented information it needs and what format it should be in
- Alignment with other key management system standards through the use of a common structure and core text
- Inclusion of Knowledge Management principles
