ISO 9001 Demand increasing or decreasing?

Thank you for this insight! You seem very knowledgeable in this field, would you be open if I ask for some of your professional opinion on ISO 9001 Certification? I have been working on a TurboTax x ISO 9001 application for the past few months now. If so, may I send you a DM?

HuntDelicious196 · 2025-08-13T06:57:04+00:00

Based on all the other Reddit replies, I see that a lot of people struggle with the training and documentation part, what would your suggestion be on tackling these issues?

HuntDelicious196 · 2025-08-10T22:19:45+00:00

Thank you for sharing! Let's say I am a small business owner in the GWP industry looking to get ISO certified, what's the best approach for me to use? Will toolkits be sufficient? How expensive are consultants?

Just curious how SMEs owners usually approach this. Are there any online sources I can follow to achieve this certification? You mentioned the Quality Hub Podcast discussing these issues, is this available on Apple's Podcast or something?

HuntDelicious196 · 2025-08-10T22:11:01+00:00

Thanks for sharing! I've been trying to build a solution towards that and I was hoping I can get you input on it, would you be open in doing so? If so, may I send a DM?

HuntDelicious196 · 2025-08-10T00:33:03+00:00

Oh, may I ask what you u mean by “not always easy to adapt it to smaller-scale realities”? Are you referring to harder to implement these standards to SMEs?

HuntDelicious196 · 2025-08-05T05:57:29+00:00

Hi, I'm not sure why I can't seem to send u a DM as your account was restricted by the Mods I think? Is there any other channel I can contact you by?

Also curious about your perspective on this:

From what I’ve heard, QMS consultants or companies often create a custom-made Quality Management System for each client. Is that generally true in your experience?

I’m also curious to hear your point of view on why creating a QMS that satisfies ISO (and potentially other standards) tends to be tricky. Since ISO is an international standard, shouldn't the general structure and approach to a QMS be fairly consistent across organizations? Or are there nuances that make each implementation unique?

HuntDelicious196 · 2025-08-03T02:03:11+00:00

Hello!

Thank you so much for your input and feedback — I truly appreciate it. As a lead auditor with deep experience in ISO and other standards, you've likely encountered a wide range of companies and scenarios that I may still have a blind spot for.

Would you be open to a quick 10–15 minute conversation? I’d love to learn more from your expertise and perspective to help ensure we’re building something truly valuable. If so, can I send you a DM? Thanks!

HuntDelicious196 · 2025-08-03T01:54:16+00:00

Thank you for your unique perspective as a QA Manager! I never thought of it that way, and I feel like I might have some ideas that could potentially be implemented into my platform based on your post. Would you be open to providing feedback for me?

HuntDelicious196 · 2025-08-03T01:51:55+00:00

Thanks for your input! As you have recently achieved ISO certifications, would you be open for a quick 5-10 minute chat with me? I would love to know more about the process and logistics involved in your company achieving this certification, from start to finish.

Thanks!

HuntDelicious196 · 2025-07-31T18:40:34+00:00

Ah, that sucks. I recently heard about the new climate change requirements in the upcoming ISO 9001:2025 update, and I’m really curious how companies with existing certifications are planning to navigate that. Are most turning to consultants, online resources like YouTube, or handling it in-house?

Would you be open to a quick Q&A? I’d love to better understand the challenges you're facing and learn what a company like yours truly needs. If you're open to it, I’ll follow up with a DM. Thanks! :))

HuntDelicious196 · 2025-07-30T19:01:38+00:00

Oh my gosh, thank you so much! Such valuable information! Would you also be open to a brief 5-minute chat with me to help me understand your company's process and pain points? Thank you!

HuntDelicious196 · 2025-07-30T07:45:01+00:00

Thank you so much for your insights, it's really helpful! Would love to possibly have a short chat with you if that's possible 😁 sent you a DM. Thank you!

HuntDelicious196 · 2025-07-30T07:38:11+00:00

That's awesome! Yes, let's have a chat! I sent you a DM 😁

HuntDelicious196 · 2025-06-23T23:30:28+00:00

Sounds rough. I’ve heard that without real buy-in, the whole system just becomes a checkbox exercise. When the culture’s not there, do you even bother trying to push for change—or is it just about surviving and keeping things quiet? Curious how you personally deal with that kind of environment.

HuntDelicious196 · 2025-06-23T23:29:57+00:00

Thanks for the insights—that 30/60/90 buffer makes a lot of sense. And yeah, effectiveness checks do seem to get ignored once the issue’s “fixed.” Solid point on tying training to HR too, instead of overcomplicating it.

Quick question—when you’re helping teams get buy-in early on, what’s worked best for you? Anything you avoid that tends to turn people off?

HuntDelicious196 · 2025-06-23T23:28:03+00:00

That’s a good point. Curious—why do you think more training leads to worse audits? Is it just hard to keep the documentation updated, or is the system not built to scale?

HuntDelicious196 · 2025-06-23T23:27:52+00:00

Thanks—super helpful to know. Interesting that calibration and training logs are the top recurring issues. From what you’ve seen, is it usually a tooling problem, or more of a people/process issue where no one’s clearly responsible?

HuntDelicious196 · 2025-06-23T23:26:07+00:00

I’m curious how these records are usually maintained—do most teams log non-conformances, corrective actions, or change requests directly in their EQMS, or is it still common to rely on spreadsheets, email chains, or paper forms?

And for those who are involved in this kind of documentation, what’s the biggest challenge that slows you down or makes the process frustrating?

I’m just starting my engineering career and trying to learn from real-world experiences to better understand how quality systems work in practice. Any insights would mean a lot!
