1 Introduction
This validation programme is being conducted by ISO/TC 176/SC 2 to determine whether the future ISO 9001:2000 and ISO 9004:2000 standards will meet customer requirements. The results of this validation programme against the second committee drafts (CD2s) of these future standards will provide valuable inputs into the development of the next level drafts of these standards (the Draft International Standard or DIS stage) which are expected to be achieved later this year. The results of the validation programme will also be made available at that time.
Participating organizations are requested:
- to study the CD2 draft standards in detail;
- to conduct an impact assessment of the potential effects that ISO/CD2 9001:2000 may have on their quality management system (including some assessment of ISO/CD2 9004:2000);
- to complete a validation questionnaire on ISO/CD2 9001 and ISO/CD 2 9004.
ISO/TC 176/SC 2 member bodies (e.g. a National Standards Body, or recognized Liaison Body) should be able to clarify or give advice on particular aspects of this validation programme.
2 Information and Documents required
Participants will need to have access to the following information and documents:
3 Impact Assessment Process
3.1 Introduction
Please conduct an impact assessment of the potential effects of the future ISO 9001:2000 standard on your quality management system (this will also include some assessment of ISO/CD2 9004) against the questions detailed below in 3.2 - 3.5.
Please submit a brief report of the results of your assessment.
3.2 Particular Impact
Please answer each of the following questions for each of clauses 5 to 8 of ISO/CD2 9001:2000.
3.3 General (overall) Impact
Estimate what additional resources may be needed to make the changes detailed in ISO/CD2 9001:2000:
- less than 3 months
- 3 to 6 months
- 6 to 12 months
- more than 12 months.
- Approximately what percentage of documents in your current quality management system will need to be significantly changed (e.g. requiring more than 10% of the text to be changed)?
- What levels of documentation will be affected (e.g. quality manual, procedures, operating instructions etc.)?
There is no need to be too exact in estimating the above resources. The objective here is find out whether the overall effort will be excessive / prohibitive.
3.4 ISO 9004
Please indicate which text (clauses, paragraphs) of ISO/CD2 9004 would NOT:
a) help you to understand the concepts involved in the relevant section of ISO/CD2 9001, and why. (Please remember that ISO 9004 is NOT intended to give guidance on how to implement the requirements of ISO 9001.)
b) enable your organization to further develop and improve its quality management approach, and why.
3.5 Other comments
Please indicate any other areas or issues where you consider that the changes to the standards may bring benefits or disadvantages to your organization?
4 Validation Questionnaire for ISO/CD2 9001:2000
and ISO/CD 2 9004:2000

This questionnaire addresses both ISO/CD2 9001:2000 and ISO/CD2 9004:2000, and has been developed following the results of earlier validation work against the CD1 and WD3 drafts of the standards.
5 Submission of results
Please return the report of your impact assessment and your completed validation questionnaire to your member body no later than:
20 June 1999
