What is an AS/NZS ISO 9001 Management Review Procedure?

Under the AS/NZS ISO 9001 standard, there is a requirement for top management to conduct a review of their quality management system. This is to ensure the continuing suitability, adequacy and effectiveness of their quality management system (QMS).

In general terms, a management review is a process that helps an organization evaluate its business and team’s performance. The objective of the review is to identify areas that need improvement or change. It can be used to assess products, services, employees, departments, or the entire organization.

A management review should be conducted regularly to establish the required actions to improve systems, processes and any additional resources needed to improve performance.

A management review should encompass the following:

Management responsibilities and the suitability of the various levels of responsibilities.

What are the Management Review Outputs?

Management review outputs can be described as the actions that are taken to make positive changes and improvements to its business processes.

Management review outputs should be focused on identifying arrangements for:

  • The review and update of strategic planning.
  • Opportunities to improve the effectiveness of management system(s) and its associated processes.
  • The improvement of products and services relating to customer requirements.
  • The review and updating of external and internal issues of concern, needs and expectations.

Why Should Objectives and Targets be Periodically Reviewed?

Consistent with the requirements of management review outputs, all objectives and targets established through a management review should be evaluated to assess their progress. Objectives that have been achieved may either be upgraded to a higher performance level or be closed out to free up resources for improvements in other areas.

If objectives and targets have not been achieved, the review should investigate why and determine the causes for failing to achieve successful outcomes.

New objectives should be established where it is necessary to improve performance to fulfill the policies or other organizational goals. Company policies should be amended when changes within or outside business parameters render a policy inadequate or inappropriate.
