Are you using the right edition of ISO 9001:2008?

If you’re certified to ISO 9001, Quality Management Systems – Requirements, you’ll want to make sure you’re using the right edition of the document.

With new changes released in 2009, there’s some confusion over exactly what is the current edition of the ISO-9001:2008.

The problem stems from having a corrected and reprinted edition released at the same time the Technical Corrigendum was issued (7/15/2009).

So in fact, you can have your document one of two ways, and you’re going to be just fine:

1. You can use the corrected and reprinted 4th Edition from 7/15/2009. This is a completely reprinted copy with the changes integrated into the text of the standard.

or

2. You can use the original 4th Edition from 11/15/2008 and the Technical Corrigendum from 7/14/2009. In this case, the changes are contained in the Corrigendum (correction sheet) only. So you’ll have to manually integrate the 7 pages of changes into the original 11/15/2008 copy of the standard.

What determines which path you take? If you get the reprinted and corrected document, you’ll have to pay for the standard again. If you just get the corrigendum, the costs will be minimal. But you’ll have to spend the time to get the changes integrated into your original copy.

In either case, Document Center Inc. can help you with copies available of all 3 components. Just get in touch with us at info@document-center.com, by phone at 650-591-7600 or on our website at www.document-center.com.
