Why the ISO 9001 Update Matters
为什么 ISO 9001 更新很重要
Every decade or so, ISO 9001 evolves to reflect the world we live in. The Draft of the International Standard (DIS) of ISO 9001:2026 was released in August 2025. The 2026 revision introduces themes that speak directly to today’s business realities:
大约每十年，ISO 9001 都会演进以反映我们所处的世界。ISO 9001：2026 国际标准（DIS）草案于 2025 年 8 月发布。2026 年的修订引入了直接反映当今商业现实的主题：
- Technology Integration – AI, IoT, and data analytics are moving from buzzwords to everyday tools in business operations. The new standard will encourage companies to use data proactively for decision-making and risk prevention.
技术集成——人工智能、物联网和数据分析正从流行词汇转变为日常业务工具。新标准将鼓励企业主动利用数据进行决策和风险预防。 - Risk and Resilience – It’s no longer just about controlling processes; it’s about building confidence in your ability to adapt, anticipate, and thrive in change.
风险与韧性——这已不仅仅是控制流程;关键在于建立对自己适应、预见并在变化中茁壮成长能力的信心。 - Ethics and Integrity – Trust, transparency, and responsible leadership are emerging as core expectations of quality systems.
道德与诚信——信任、透明和负责任的领导正成为质量体系的核心期望。 - Supply Chain Complexity – With global disruptions and faster product cycles, resilient supplier management is now a necessity.
供应链复杂性——随着全球变革和产品周期加快，具韧性的供应商管理已成为必需。 - Flexibility for Small Businesses – ISO is recognizing the unique challenges of small businesses and may introduce more tailored requirements to keep certification accessible.
小企业的灵活性——ISO 认识到小企业的独特挑战，可能会推出更个性化的要求，以保持认证的可及性。
From Quality Control to Quality Confidence
从质量控制到质量信心
One of the biggest shifts from ISO 9001:2015 to ISO 9001:2026 is a move from reactive quality control to proactive quality confidence. That means:
从 ISO 9001：2015 到 ISO 9001：2026 的最大转变之一，是从被动质量控制转向主动质量信心。这意味着：
- Not just catching defects, but designing systems that prevent them.
不仅仅是发现缺陷，还要设计防止缺陷的系统。 - Building transparency, so customers and partners see proof of your quality, not just your word.
建立透明度，让客户和合作伙伴看到你品质的证明，而不仅仅是你的言辞。 - Using risk-based thinking to anticipate problems before they arise.
利用基于风险的思维，在问题出现前预见。
For small businesses, this is not about making things more complicated. The focus is on using modern tools and more innovative ideas to compete with bigger companies.
对于小企业来说，这并不是为了让事情变得更复杂。重点在于利用现代工具和更具创新性的理念，与更大的公司竞争。
Lessons from the Pandemic
疫情的教训
The pandemic showed us what happens when businesses can’t adapt. Those who relied solely on traditional audits and paper-based systems struggled. Those who used data, predictive models, and agile processes were more resilient.
疫情让我们看到了当企业无法适应时会发生什么。那些完全依赖传统审计和纸质系统的企业则面临困难。使用数据、预测模型和敏捷流程的企业更具韧性。
Utilizing a cloud-based QMS software, such as the CORE Compliance Platform, enables you to manage your QMS digitally. This makes it easy to keep your QMS audit-ready and update it from any location, especially from virtual offices.
利用基于云的 QMS 软件，如 CORE 合规平台 ，使您能够数字化管理 QMS。这使得保持 QMS 审计准备和更新变得轻松，尤其是在虚拟办公室。
The ISO 9001:2026 revision shows essential lessons. Agility and adaptability are not just “nice-to-haves.” They are now survival skills.
ISO 9001：2026 修订版展示了重要的经验教训。敏捷性和适应性不仅仅是“可有可无”的。它们现在成了生存技能。
