Abstract
It has been 12 years since we began the studies from a viewpoint of the organizations which will be certificated on ISO 9001. Although ISO 9001 is a standard, it is important to incorporate the measure exceeding the mechanisms beyond the standard in structure, in order for organizations to raise competition nature with the other companies. Therefore, we considered the business system models, and have established and promoted the subjects of the studies which are useful for business. The subjects are the promotion method for which the top managements of small and medium-sized enterprises want to use, such as the internal audit, the promotion method for top managements and management representatives, consistency of quality and cost. The basis of the studies are effective promotions of business and a quality management system. So to speak, the studies were mainly as acquisition in advance of 2015 edition of ISO 9001 standard.
The contents of the standard of 2015 edition was becoming clear in 2014. Then, we change the subjects to “studies of the QMS model of small and medium-sized enterprises”, and come at present. We will continue the studies at the positions of organizations, delve into the small-and-mediumsized-enterprises-oriented promotion method further, and continue to study them from now on.
