Don't be fooled by ISO certification bodies lacking the crucial UKAS tick! The United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) is the gold standard for accreditation in the UK. An ISO certification from a UKAS-accredited body is globally recognised as a mark of quality and reliability. But beware! Not all ISO certs are created equal. Those without the UKAS symbol may look similar, but they lack the same level of assurance and credibility. Protect your business: 1.    Always request or check your assessment body's ISO accreditation certificate (https://lnkd.in/ePYfB2aG) 2.    Verify it's current and displays the UKAS tick symbol 3.   Pro Tip: Use the UKAS website's certificate checker to verify your, your suppliers, and/or your competitors legitimacy by company name or cert number. Stay compliant, stay confident!  (https://lnkd.in/eTBFaz4j) #ISO #QualityManagement #UKAS #BusinessCompliance #CertificationStandards #QualityAssurance #RiskManagement #SupplyChainSecurity

In support of the ISO London Declaration on Climate Change, ISO passed a resolution that has resulted in two new statements of text being added to a number of existing management systems standards and were included in all new standards under development/revision, to address the need to consider the effect of Climate Change on the ability to achieve the intended results of the management system. The changes have been introduced initially as Amendments to these published standards. The changes (two new statements) will be incorporated into the new text of the Harmonized Structure (Appendix 2 of the Annex SL in the ISO/IEC Directives Part 1 Consolidated ISO Supplement) as follows. The amendments to the standards were published on February 23rd, 2024. IAF and ISO have published a joint communique, highlighting the changes being made to a number of Management Systems Standards (MSS), in the form of additional text highlighting the importance of Climate Change as a consideration within the organizational context for the management system concerned. https://lnkd.in/dz38UKmv

EMBRACE FEEDBACK FOR CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT Capturing feedback, whether it’s positive experiences, issues, or potential improvements can be an impactful business practice. Whether or not an ISO 9001 Quality Management System (QMS) is the objective, a simple and straightforward approach to logging this information can yield significant business benefits, such as enhanced team engagement and business improvements, as referenced in a recent QMS Q&A post with Mark Russell A.W.M.Soc, the Technical Director at Aquatrust Water and Ventilation Ltd. ▪ ENHANCED TEAM ENGAGEMENT - Capturing valuable insights from the entire team fosters a culture of collaboration and inclusivity, recognising and appreciating contributions. ▪ BUSINESS IMPROVEMENTS - A continuous feedback loop drives ongoing quality improvements, making processes more efficient and effective by identifying and resolving problems. By integrating feedback into daily practices, businesses can achieve remarkable progress and innovation. Leveraging the value of powerful data provides precious insight into a business, with opportunities to learn from mistakes and improve operations. This can potentially save time, reduce costs, enhance the customer experience and result in a competitive advantage. === If you would like to know more, feel free to send a DM or join our QMS & ISO 9001 LinkedIn group.

Implementing an ISO management system can seem scary at first, and this is why I suggest taking small steps. Breaking the task down makes changes more manageable, and reduces resistance. This gradual approach can help ensure smoother transitions and greater acceptance of the management system across the whole organisation. How does it do this? Small steps allow for incremental progress - improvements can be continuously introduced and built upon. Over time these can lead to substantial changes, without overwhelming the business. Implementing small steps allows for continuous feedback from the team and adjustments to be made. These create sustainable growth by making continual improvement a keystone of your company’s culture. What are your thoughts? Do you find smaller steps easier to handle when making changes in your business?

Repost, interrelationships of ISO/TC 279 Innovation management standards with further explanations. The 'Innovation Management System' standards #ISO56002 #ISO56001 function as the platform. As Convenor of ISO/TC 279 WG 3 from 2017 to 2023, and currently Canada Chair for innovation management, the goal of WG3 tools and methods, was to develop complementary standards, targeting particular subject/content areas within the platform. All WG3 standards are developed to support, further describe, or enhance a particular 'innovation management system' subject area or function. However, many relate to 'managing the innovation processes to develop an opportunity' (the Operation function). This implements the operational planning & control. It sets out criteria for managing the initiative, innovation processes (identify opportunities, create concepts, validate concepts, develop solutions, deploy solutions), and where applicable, the portfolio.

ISO has recently published an amendment to its management system standards, including those related to Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems (ISO 45001). Organisations aiming to meet or conform to ISO 45001 must now consider whether climate change is a relevant issue when assessing their context and the requirements of interested parties. While climate change impacts might not seem immediately obvious in managing workplace health and safety, they pose significant threats to workers. More severe storms, floods, and bushfires directly threaten worker safety. Indirect impacts include increased dermal exposure to chemicals in hotter environments and greater psychosocial challenges as workers adapt to changing industries and the mental toll of hazardous conditions. Integrating climate change impacts into health and safety management might initially appear to be an additional burden on businesses. However, poor health and safety management is directly linked to reduced productivity, increased absenteeism, and higher workers' compensation costs, all of which diminish overall productivity. Considering climate change in your health and safety strategies is not just about compliance but also about safeguarding your workforce and enhancing business resilience.
