How can a small organization adapt to the requirements of ISO 9001:2000? What flexibility is allowed?
The requirements of ISO 9001:2000 are applicable to small, medium, and large organizations alike. ISO 9001:2000 provides some flexibility, through clause 1.2 “Application”, on the exclusion of certain requirements for specific processes (e.g. those covered by clause 7, such as design activities) that may not be performed by the organization. However, the individual organization still needs to demonstrate its capability to meet customer and applicable statutory or regulatory requirements for its products, and to consider this when determining the complexity of its quality management system.
