What Should an Organization do

Now?
Nothing at this time ( well almost nothing).
Still too early in the 2015 revision process of ISO 9001 to make any significant
changes to an existing QMS.
Some issues drafted may change or disappear in upcoming drafts or with final
version.
Looking aheadexisting registered system documentation should conform
with some small adjustments. In most cases, existing registered organizations
should have enough documentation and records.
Since risk is documented in most sections of proposed revision to ISO 9001,
consider starting your risk management plan, if you dont have one. Begin
thinking how to address risk in your business.

Considering Risk

Risk is very detailed in this revision to the standard as

compared to ISO 13485, Food Safety, or Aerospace.
Think about adding/using words that are typical in
the risk process such as risk determination, risk
control, risk mitigation, acceptable level of risk.
Next slide outlines the four phases of managing risk,
and maybe helpful as an organization addresses risk
to their business.
