TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
We are currently in the process of certifying to the ISO-9001:2000 standard.
This standard is a big departure from ISO-9000 and is process rather than
procedure based. The standard calls for the organization to model the inputs
and outputs of every department in the organization. There is also a
feedback loop reviewed by executive management to ensure continuous product
improvement.
Yes, like all tools, you can choose to abuse them or to simply not use them.
Yes the standard helps ensure that you can manufacture the same product
consistently. Yes if the product is garbage you will consistently
manufacture garbage. But ask yourself this: would you take your medication
if the pharmaceutical company could not manufacture the drug in a consistent
manner? The ability to manufacture something consistently is hugely
important.
