KAIZEN™ Approach to ISO 9001:2015

Make it Add Value This Time!
Finally … the new version of ISO 9001:2015 has released! “Hurray”, I can hear many of you screaming … or … not. More realistically, I am sure many of you living in the KAIZEN™ world are thinking to yourself … “yeah, so what? That’s so 90’s. This stuff has nothing to do with real KAIZEN™ and, in fact, it oftentimes creates bureaucracy and more waste.” Any yet, if your Quality Management System (QMS) is currently wasteful (as I am sure it is), and we as KAIZENers are all about reducing waste in systems, then it makes sense that you should look at eliminating the waste in our QMS’s and right now, is the perfect opportunity to do so, since the revised standard is practically begging us to do so.
