Informational ISO/TS 9002 - Guidelines for the application of ISO 9001:2015

[John Broomfield]

Sorry folks.

Indeed, after Section 3 and before the bibliography its says:

"Only informative sections of standards are publicly available. To view the full content, you will need to purchase the standard by clicking on the "Buy" button."

Being as TS9002 is meant to be informative, I jumped the gun in recommending the OBP.

Actually, the ISO/TS 9002 Standard has been published. The TS 9002 document introduction reads:

ISO 9001 contains requirements that can be objectively audited or evaluated. This document includes examples, descriptions and options that aid both in the implementation of a quality management system and in strengthening its relation to the overall management system of an organization. While the guidelines in this document are consistent with the ISO 9001 quality management system model, they are not intended to provide interpretations of the requirements of ISO 9001 or be used for audit or evaluation purposes.

Why not?

I noticed that ISO/TS 9002 is now under review with a ballot ending 2020-03-03. Since it has been less than 5 years since it's publication, it seems a little too early for a periodic review of the document. I am trying to get some information about this review cycle, and if I do, I will post it here.

Our own Cover, and chair of the ISO TC 176 SC2, Mr. Paul Simpson reminded me that, in the ISO protocol, Technical Specifications reviews are 3-year cycles. And, the TS 9002 should be confirmed as is, until the next revision of 9001, which starts a review cycle this year.
