It also includes first suggestions for action, e.g.: List which content (e.g. policy, objectives, audits, document control) is maintained more than once.

How to proceed: Rate each statement for your company as "applies", "partly applies" or "does not apply".

Tip: A management system is experienced slightly differently from every position in a company. The check is therefore most informative when several people complete it independently of each other (e.g. from top management, departments and quality management). Different results are not a mistake, but a good occasion for a joint conversation.

A Responsibility and steering

1The management system is regarded in the company primarily as a task of the quality department or of a representative.

Norm reference: ISO 9001:2015, 5.1.1 a), 5.3

2In the management review, reports are mostly just noted. Decisions on steering the company are rarely made there.

Norm reference: ISO 9001:2015, 9.3.1

B Integration with daily operations

3There are processes, documents or records that are mainly maintained for audits and hardly used in day-to-day work.

Norm reference: ISO 9001:2015, 7.5.1, Annex A.1

4In some departments, work is done differently from what the manual or procedures describe.

Norm reference: ISO 9001:2015, 4.4.1, 5.1.1 c)

C Several systems side by side

5Each standard or management system (e.g. ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, ISO 50001) has its own responsible persons and its own document structures.

Norm reference: ISO 9001:2015, 5.3, Annex A.1

6Internal audits and management reviews are carried out separately for each system.

Norm reference: ISO 9001:2015, 9.2, 9.3.1

7The same content (e.g. policy, objectives, risks, control of documented information, training) is maintained separately for several systems.

Norm reference: ISO 9001:2015, 7.5.1, Annex A.1

D Effort and impact

8Departments have to record or reconcile information or records twice for several systems.

Norm reference: ISO 9001:2015, 4.4.1, 7.5.1

9At the interfaces between systems or responsibilities, coordination problems or unclear responsibilities occur.

Norm reference: ISO 9001:2015, 4.4.1, 5.3

10New requirements (e.g. a new standard, a customer demand or a reporting duty) usually lead to a new role or structure, rarely to an extension of the existing system.

Norm reference: ISO 9001:2015, 4.4.1, 5.1.1 c)

First suggestions for action

    Different perspectives

    Ask at least one other person from a different level to complete the check and compare the results. Differing assessments show where perspectives in the company diverge. This is a good starting point for a joint conversation.

    The short check is an orientation tool and not a validated measurement. It does not quantify costs and does not replace an analysis of your management system. The norm references refer to DIN EN ISO 9001:2015-11 and show where each statement relates in content. The questions and score thresholds are QualiTEx Global's own wording.
