RELEASE: 99-106

NASA ACHIEVES ISO 9001 REGISTRATION AT ALL SITES

As of Sept. 17, all NASA centers, NASA Headquarters, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and all of NASA's government operated facilities have achieved ISO 9001 registration or been recommended for registration.

With this accomplishment, NASA became the world's first federal or state agency with multiple sites to have all its sites under ISO 9001 registration. NASA Headquarters is among the first corporate headquarters offices in the world to achieve its ISO 9001 registration.

Administrator Daniel S. Goldin challenged NASA in November 1996 to have all the agency's facilities certified by September 1999. "We are leaders in the world of science and technology. We must also be leaders in the world of quality. I am requiring that the Agency be third-party certified in our key processes, by an internationally recognized registrar, to ISO 9001. This commitment applies to all centers and headquarters," said Goldin.

The ISO 9001 standard is an internationally accepted set of topics comprising the basic items needed to define and implement a "Quality Management System" for an organization. An impartial auditor evaluates the effectiveness and completeness of the quality management system before recommending registration.

Yes. We here at JSC and the Marshall Space Flight Center used National Quality Assurance - USA (NQA-USA). All of the other Centers, as well as our Prime Contractor (United Space Alliance) used Det Norske Veritas (DNV).
