Marc said:I haven't seen any comparison matrices - Probably because QS9000 is almost obsolete (2006 will soon be here) and QS9000 was keyed to ISO 9001:1994.
What are you doing? Changing from QS9000 to ISO 9001?
KIDDO said:Good Morning;
What are the differences between ISO 9001:2000 and QS-9000?
Thanks
Kiddo
hjilling said:The biggest difference is that in ISO 9001:2000, you define your system by the processes you do at your site, where QS defined your system by the 21 elements and sections. ISO then has you define significant details for those processes (ref. 4.1 in the ISO or TS standard).
There are many other items as well, but one thing that did not change much are floor level work instructions. Most of the changes are at the management level activities.
Reading ISO 9004 would be very beneficial as well.

To make the move to TS, you would have to add more detail, and perhaps beef up some of the stuff you're already doing.
ISO 9001:2000 is much less stringent than either QS or TS, so a whole bunch of QS specific 'shalls' don't need to make the transition to the new certification level. However, if you are planning to go to TS in the near future anyway, you will just have to re-introduce the stuff you likely would have stripped out for ISO 9001:2000
Have you considered moving to TS directly?

I know QS9000 is obsolete but I have had many conversations at my company about the work instructions TS is talking about:
TS 7.5.1.2 - The organization shall prepare documented work instructions for all employees having responsibilities for the operation of processses that impact product quality. These instructions shall be accessible for use at the work station. These instructions shall be derived from sources such as the quality plan, the control plan and the product realization process.
My interpretation of the clause 7.5.1.2 is that the instructions they are talking about are the ones that tell you how to build the part / product, not the work instructions telling you how to run the mill / machine.
First of all, is my interpretation correct?
My second question is, what work instructions was QS9000 talking about?
