OUR ISO IEC 90003 2004

PLAIN ENGLISH CHECKLIST

ISO IEC 90003 2004 is a Quality Management Standard
for software products and related services.

We’ve translated the ISO/IEC 90003:2004 standard into
plain English and then turned this detailed “translation”
into a comprehensive checklist. Our checklist can be
used in at least five ways:
  1. To learn about ISO/IEC 90003:2004 and
    ISO 9001:2000 or to teach others about
    ISO’s requirements and guidelines.

  2. To ensure that your activities comply with
    the ISO 90003 quality management standard
    (which includes ISO 9001 2000).

  3. To develop a quality management system
    that complies with ISO/IEC 90003 (which
    also includes ISO 9001).

  4. To audit your quality management system
    to ensure that it complies with the ISO/IEC
    90003 (and ISO 9001) standard.

  5. To perform a gap analysis in order to pinpoint
    the gaps between the new ISO 90003 standard
    and your organization's actual practices.

We’ve used a task oriented approach to translate
the ISO 90003 requirements and guidelines into plain
English. This means that our plain English standard
(checklist) consists entirely of tasks or actions. So if
you want to implement or apply the ISO 90003 standard
(which includes ISO 9001), all you have to do is carry out
the tasks that we have listed. However, you don’t have
to perform every single task – not every task is required
(mandatory). Some tasks are optional – some tasks are
guidelines only (recommendations or suggestions).

Whenever a task must be performed in order to comply
with the ISO 9001 requirements, we offer two response
options: TODO or DONE. If you haven’t done the task,
select TODO. If you’ve already done it, select DONE.

But whenever a task is merely an ISO 90003 2004
recommendation or suggestion (a guideline), we offer
three response options: TODO, DONE, or N/A. Select
N/A if the task is not applicable in your situation. In other
words, whenever ISO 90003 makes a should statement
(a recommendation) or a may statement (a suggestion
or permission to perform a task), we’ve added an N/A
option to indicate that the task is not mandatory.

The N/A option is also added to every section 7 task
because ISO 9001 says that you can exclude section 7
tasks if they are not applicable in your situation because
of the nature of your products. Whenever you decide to
ignore or exclude an ISO 9001 requirement, make sure
you’ve got a good reason. Make sure that you can justify
and explain why you’ve excluded it, and make sure this
explanation appears in your quality manual.

To the right of these two or three response options, you
will also find a column that you can use to record your
comments, observations, or cross references. When
appropriate, we also use this column for notes,
explanations, and reminders.
