Bizmanualz Lean ISO Implementation Enables Companies to Receive ISO Certification in 90 Days
Saint Louis, Missouri (PRWEB) April 08, 2014 -- Bizmanualz, Inc., a business process management and lean ISO consulting company, announces a new way for companies to receive ISO certification using lean methods to reduce overhead.
The lean ISO approach allows for fewer procedures, documents, and overhead for smaller companies. Using lean, a company understands how to conform to the minimum document and record requirements and reduce the bureaucratic waste commonly associated with ISO 9001.
"Lean Thinking, reduces an organization’s reliance on procedure documentation" explains Chris Anderson, Bizmanualz Managing Director and lean consultant. "A lean visual workplace focuses everyone on core metrics with trending and analysis that generates buy-in for change. A lean Corrective & Preventive Action Kaizen Process engages the workforce and communicates the latest improvements to employees."
The lean ISO process is broken down into four elements:
• The process starts by evaluating a company’s core business processes and establishing clear metrics and objectives for each process (ISO 9001: clause 4).
• Next processes are aligned with customer’s needs (voice of the customer) and the company’s quality policy and objectives (ISO 9001: clause 5), and resources (ISO 9001: clause 6).
• Next processes are aligned with production and service provisions (ISO 9001: clause 7) to conform with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP).
• And finally, processes must begin continual improvement, or conduct occasional internal audits (ISO 9001: clause 8).
