TL 9000 (Telecommunications) - Availability of the Standard
Subject: RE: Q: Availability of the TL 9000 (TL9000) Standard
I received this update on the TL9000 standard availability from Janet Jacobsen of the RAB. She asked me to pass along this information:
-----------------
Over the last few days I've been receiving a number of e-mails requesting copies of the TL 9000 documents.
Unfortunately, RAB no longer has the most current TL 9000 documents. The QuEST Forum has requested the ANSI-RAB National Accreditation Program to establish a process for the accreditation of its registrars to offer registration to the TL 9000 requirements. To aid in the evaluation of QuEST's request, ANSI and RAB sought public comment until Dec. 7, 1998, on the TL 9000 requirements.
Two things have since happened: the comment period has ended and the QuEST Forum has revised the documents, so RAB no longer has the most current information.
I spoke yesterday with one of the QuEST leaders and he tells me that a new draft edition will be available shortly (probably for purchase). Once I get that information I will respond to the e-mails that I've received.
In the mean time, you would be doing me a great favor if you could post a new message to the discussion group to relay this information. I will also let you know what my QuEST contact tells me regarding the new order information.
