6 Resource management

ISO 9001:2008 requires that the Quality Management System is properly resourced as follows:

6. Resource Management


6.1 Provision of Resources

One member of Top Management must be responsible for determining what resources are required for the implementation and improvement of your quality management system.

Your organization’s process for determining resource requirements should also be stated here. Most organizations determine resource requirements during management review meetings. It is sufficient for your quality manual to state: ‘the principal forum for determining and communicating resource requirements is during management reviews’.
