The standards provide guidance and tools for companies and organizations who want to ensure that their products and services consistently meet customer’s requirements, and that quality is consistently improved.

Some key changes between ISO 9001:2008 to 9001:2015 are an increased emphasis of achieving value, enhanced leadership requirements, risk-based think and documentation requirements to name a few.
