Applying Risk Based Thinking to a Quality Management System (LAB-0483)

Risk Based Thinking

Overview:

One of the most significant changes in ISO 9001:2015 is the increased emphasis on risk-based thinking in requirements for planning, auditing and improvement of the quality management system (QMS) and its processes. What is risk-based thinking? Do you know how to address risks and opportunities? Did you ever analyze risks and opportunities? This course will provide insight to help you understand these requirements and compare them to the risk management process for the phase Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycle and some commonly used models and tools. It will then focus on applying these concepts within a quality management system with the intent of helping an organization achieve quality objectives. Failing to apply risk-based thinking in an organization’s QMS may decrease customer satisfaction, caused by non-conformity in products and services.
