The Committee Draft for comment to be issued by mid-August 1998. The Second Committee Draft to be available in the second quarter of 1999. The Draft International Standard to be available in the fourth quarter of 1999. The new Standard is expected to be published in the fourth quarter of 2000. IP: Logged |

Fall of the year 2000! It's amazing that there is so much activity around a standard that isn't going to change for another 2 years! IP: Logged |

Like the Y2K 'problem', no one should be able to say they didn't have enough time to address issues. IP: Logged |

An FYI: Subject: Re: Q: Getting Ready for 2000/Russo/Staples >Could members of the list share with us their specific plans, steps, From: Patricia Staples First: Identify anything that could have any impact on your business due to the year change. Brainstorm with your management group. Someone may know something that others don't. Second: Prioritize by importance and expense. If the date on something is very expensive to change but the production and quality of the job is not affected, than it may not need to be updated. (i.e., an old, stand alone computer using a DOS program to calculate percentages of something may be expensive to upgrade, (the cost of another computer) but does it really matter?) Third: On the high priority items, is it less expensive to upgrade or buy new? Fourth: Implement Fifth: Test stand alone, test network internally, then test network externally. If you use programs together, test them together. Because there are different ways for a computer tech to "fix the problem," some programs may be OK individually but will not work when you try to use it with another application. I am not a computer expert, so all of this is general, but I hope you get the main ideas. Patricia Staples MacKenzie replies: My advice is to do nothing. Keep up to date with the changes by all means but do nothing until the standard is published. I know that certification bodies will give clients a year to comply with the new version.

If QS-9000 registered, what do we have to do to stay in comlpiance? In order to be QS certified, we are ISO certified also. Will the QS 3rd edition be revised to comply with ISO 2000? IP: Logged |

quote: You don't register to QS9000, you register to ISO9001. Your cert will have a statement somwhere which will say something like: "With QS9000 additional requirements". You stay certified by having your ISO audits as usual with the additional QS9000 requirements audited at the same time - which they do in a QS audit. But the bottom line is ISO is an international standard you register to. QS9000 is a customer requirement which you request to be audited to IN ADDITION to ISO9001 requirements. In a way it's sorta like you can get a major nonpliance citation for something which is not an ISO requirement if it is a system requirement your company has defined as an internal requirement.
quote:God doesn't visit this forum... No - I really don't off-hand know of a defined QS revision cycle (it may be there and I'm unaware of it) and I think one of the issues will be more mixed than we may think. For example, what will be the role of TR16949 (See https://elsmar.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/000052.html Read that - I'll bet you'll have lots more questions.... Then, either go at it (ask questions) in that thread - or bring them back to this thread - or - start another thread in the appropriate forum! By the way, anyone heard anything about TR16949 lately?
