ISO 9000 quality standards are implemented by more than 500,000 organizations in 160 countries. ISO 9000 is an international reference for quality management requirements in business-to-business dealings. The ISO 9000 family examines the processes required to fulfill the quality requirements of its customers and applicable regulatory requirements, while enhancing customer satisfaction, and achieving continual improvement of its performance in pursuit of these objectives.
ISO 9000 is a generic requirement, which means the same standards can be applied to any organization, large or small, whatever its product, even if the product is actually a service, in any sector of activity, and whether it is a business enterprise, a public administration, or a government department.
