Greetings.

I have been getting us ready to go from ISO 9001:2008 to ISO 9001:2015 this coming July (I know.... we're cutting it close). However, our top management person (who is also my boss) just suddenly left the company without notice. He had a good appreciation for and was becoming more and more involved with ISO 9001.

QUESTION. How do I get his replacement both educated and involved enough with ISO in order to pass and grow from this ISO certification, all while I continue to get us ready for the audit? He will have his hands full taking over and picking up the pieces from this situation as it is I know. Thus his time will be limited, no matter how important this is.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Respectfully,

QC Dave
Quality Control Manager

Always remember that good professional season auditor looks at your processes - not people so focus on processes, risk of that processes, how is that process determined if it is an effective process and you should be fine.

Note: there could be minor NCR for not not dotting the I, T and J but those are quick fixes.

I can truly relate to what you went through as I went through a very similar situation 2 weeks ago. I started the audit out by telling the auditor just what occurred and that with a little understanding when she gets the deer in the headlights look we will get through this. I believe that it set the tone for the rest of the audit. As someone previously said the system should do the talking but you deserve a big :applause:
