Re: ISO 9001:2015 Sec 9.3.2 IATF 9.3.2.1 - Process Performance and Conformity of Prod
Although QS-9000 doesn’t define conformity, it does define nonconformity as a “process” which does not conform to a quality system requirement.
It makes the distinction that a non-conformance is a “product or material” which does not conform to customer requirements or specifications.
So, QS-9000 uses both conformity (process) and conformance (product).
However, ISO 9000 uses conformity as fulfilling either process or product requirements.
Hope this helps.
