Beneficios de la evaluación de la conformidad y la cadena de suministro

Companies purchase lots of things. They purchase tangible goods, such as raw materials and equipment; or intangible services, such as calibration and transportation. Most companies have basic criteria that they use to qualify and select suppliers.

Many companies require their suppliers to obtain and maintain certifications to one or more management system standards, such as ISO 9001 (quality), ISO 14001 (environmental), ISO 50001 (energy), ISO 27001 (information security), or at least adopt some aspects of a management system standard. Some industry sectors have even created their own management system standards. The automotive industry, for example, has ISO/TS 16949, the aerospace industry has AS9100, and the telecommunications industry has TL 9000. These sector-specific standards include requirements to meet industry needs.

Certification to management system standards provides confidence that processes are in place for product or service realization, confidence that these processes are systematically performed and meet applicable requirements, and confidence that processes are adopted to improve performance.

This is important stuff. But many don’t understand how this confidence is achieved.
