GLOBAL ACCEPTED MANAGEMENT STANDARD
--ISO9001:1994
ENGLISH VERSION
ISO9001:1994 Standard
Quality systeems-Model for quality assurance in design,development,production,installation
and servicing
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies quality system requirements for
use where a supplier’s capability to design and supply conforming product
needs to be demonstrated.
The requirements specified are aimed primarily at achieving customer satisfaction
by prevent nonconformity at all stages from design through to servicing.
This International Standard is applicable in situations when design is
required and the product requirements are stated principally in performance
terms, or they need to be established, and confidence in product conformance
can be attained by adequate demonstration of a supplier’s capabilities
in design, development, production, installation and servicing.
NOTE 1 For informative references, see annex A.
2 Normative reference
The following standard contains provisions which, through reference in
this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard. At the
time of publication, the edition indicated was valid. All standards are
subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this International
Standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the
most recent edition of the standard indicated below. Members of IEC and
ISO maintain registers of currently valid International Standards.
ISO 8402:1994, Quality management and quality assurance-Vocabulary.

deficiencies may become apparent only after the product is in use, the
processes are carried out by qualified operators and/or require continuous
monitoring and control of process parameters to ensure that the specified
requirements are met.

that the measurement uncertainty is known and is consistent with the required
measurement capability.
Where test software or comparative references such as test hardware are
used as suitable forms of inspection, they are checked to prove that they
are capable of verifying the acceptability of product, prior to release
for use during production, installation or servicing, and are rechecked
at prescribed intervals.
The suppliers shall establish the extent and frequency of such checks
and maintains records as evidence of control.
