Maintaining an efficient and effective Quality Management System (QMS) over time is a substantial challenge. But what makes it so difficult?
The main reason is that the environment in which a QMS exists is anything but static. The organisation that the QMS serves inevitably changes due to employee fluctuation, business growth, modifications to products and their related technologies, updates to tools and infrastructure, and ongoing evolution of the global regulatory landscape. All of these aspects require the QMS to adapt accordingly – thus, a QMS, by nature, cannot be static.
The challenge for organisations, therefore, is to adapt their QMS to stay efficient and effective during the constant change of its environment.
In our whitepaper below, our Head of Quality Dr. Dirk Hüber explores this challenge – unpacking the various difficulties regarding QMS maintenance and discussing strategies to avoid potential pitfalls.
