Now that finance has given me approval, I have 2 cents to add to the thread:
I had a conversation with our outside auditor on this very topic last visit. I had been told that we would "toss out" ISO 9000 (and possibly yours truly, I assume) if we had to reveal any financial information, so I questioned the auditor in-depth.
He said that the actual numbers aren't important, but we had to show that there is some mechanism (system, process) to provide the needed resources. I assume he will look at management review, see where a need has been identified, then see if/how it was provided.
Also, the discussion in this thread has stated several times that we are in business to make money, etc., etc. Can't ISO 9000 be applicable to non-profit organizations, as well?
Well, my 2 cents has run out.
