Once composed mostly of static pages focusing on ISO 9001 and QS-9000, the forum is now the main focus of the Elsmar Cove site and the breadth of topics has significanly widened to address many more business / manufacturing system and standards compliance issues. ISO 9001 (including ISO 9001:2008 Summary of Changes), AS9100, Six Sigma, Lean, and Quality Assurance tools are only a few of the topics discussed. From manufacturing to training discussions, there's a lot in the forums. While the initial focus of the site included QS-9000 and ISO 9001, that focus has broadened to include ISO / TS 16949 and much more. Automotive manufacturing is a primary topic. We have also broadened the site to address ISO 13485 (Medical Devices), ISO 17025 (Calibration and test laboratories), ISO 14001 (the 'Environmental' standard) and numerous other business standards. Several thousand professionals from all over the world meet in the forum every day during the work week. I hope you'll take a few minutes and browse the forums. You will find it to be an excellent resource for information you're looking for. You may find yourself becoming a regular visitor because the folks who visit are friendly and helpful. You'll find the forums are very active - A wealth of information awaits you! Join us, learn, and help others! One
on the nice things about the Elsmar Cove is there is a lot of free
information, free
forms and free example quality manuals, Gage R&R spreadsheets,
various document templates and other things you would pay for at
many sites. Some files are Attachments

Current Forum Discussions Several other areas of focus include the requirements of ISO 17025 (Calibration and Test Laboratories) and ISO 13485 (Medical Devices). If you're in need of information about ISO 9001 (often referred to as ISO9001, ISO9000 or ISO 9000), TS 16949, AS9100, ISO 14001 or other business standard, you're at the right place. We eat, sleep and breath business standards.
If you need something and you can't find it (or if what you're looking
for isn't already here), if you ask someone will typically help
out by pointing you to an existing document here or attaching
what you're looking for in a post. This is a site where you find People
Helping People through sharing and online discussions.
