Nice work, it obviously took some time to put together - shows great commitment. When you run a lot of training courses (as I do) trying to get these messages across, it is nice to read that others have similar interpretations to oneself.

Cove friends,

Hello! Hope all is well. My new book, ISO 9001 in Plain English, has just been published by Paton Press. I've attached the first couple of chapters, and I would love to hear what you think about it. The book does exactly what its title implies: it puts ISO 9001 in terms anybody can understand, and it's a fine resource for auditors, implementers, top managers, and people who have to live within an ISO 9001 system.

It's available here:http://www.patonprofessional.com/pm-135-1-iso-9001-in-plain-english.aspx

Talk to you soon,
Craig

Hi there! Thank you so much. Wow, that's a lot of info!!! So helpful. I have read this in a website somewhere, very similar and your name is familiar so it must be from you, too. My question now is, is this one in your book the latest version? :D

This is what ISO does to my brain. :lol:

Global Citizen,

The 2008 Amendment of ISO 9001 does not actually change any requirements. It rearranges words and changes a few phrasings, but no requirements were added or deleted. So, yes, this book does reflect the most current version. Thanks for your feedback and interest.

Ajit,

Thanks for your gracious feedback. With any luck, I'll have some more writing to share in the months ahead. I'm working on a book on problem solving, which as you know is something all organizations struggle with.

Have a good weekend,
Craig

Craig,

Are there going to other versions that address the other standards like AS9100, ISO13485, TS16949, etc. written in similar language to this book?

The Problem Solving Book, will (I know) be excellent. I can't wait for its release (publication).
