DOES THE ANSI/ASQC Q90 STANDARD SERIES DIFFER FROM THE ISO 9000 STANDARD SERIES?
ISO 9000-9004 and ANSI/ASQC Q90-94 are technically equivalent. However, the ANSI/ASQC Q90 Series has been modified to incorporate customary American language usage and spelling. Some supplementary guidance on sampling and other statistical methods and product liability and user safety has also been included in the appendices to ANSI/ASQC Q94. ASQC is planning to renumber the ANSI/ASQC Q90 Series as the ANSI/ASQC Q9000 series to clearly indicate their equivalency to the ISO 9000 Series.
