At the same time, this standard is cancelled). GB/T19000-2008/ISO9000:20050.1 General Principles
The GB/T19000 family of standards can help organizations of all types and sizes to establish and operate effective quality management systems. These standards include:
-GB/T19000, which describes the basic knowledge of quality management system and specifies the terminology of quality management system; -GB/T19001, which specifies the requirements of quality management system, which is used to prove that the organization has the ability to provide products that meet customer requirements and applicable regulatory requirements, and is specifically aimed at improving customer satisfaction; -GB/T19004, which provides guidelines for considering the effectiveness and efficiency of quality management system. The purpose of this standard is to improve the performance of the organization and achieve customer and other interested parties' satisfaction; -GB/T19011, which provides guidelines for auditing quality and environmental management systems. The above standards together constitute a group of closely related quality management system standards to promote mutual understanding in domestic and international trade. 0.2 Quality Management Principles
Successfully leading and operating an organization requires management in a systematic and transparent manner. An organization can be successful by implementing and maintaining a management system that continuously improves its performance in response to the needs of all interested parties. Quality management is one of the management contents of an organization. The eight quality management principles proposed in this standard are identified as guiding principles for top management to lead the organization to improve performance. a) Customer Focus
Organizations depend on customers. Therefore, organizations should understand the current and future needs of customers, meet customer requirements and strive to exceed customer expectations.
Leadership
Leaders should ensure that the organization's day and direction are consistent. They should create and maintain a good internal environment so that employees can fully participate in the activities to achieve organizational goals.
c) Full Employee Participation
People at all levels are the foundation of the organization. Only with their full participation can they use their talents for the benefit of the organization. d)
Process Approach
Managing activities and related resources as processes can achieve the desired results more efficiently. System Approach to Management
Viewing, understanding and managing interrelated processes as a system helps organizations improve the effectiveness and efficiency of achieving their goals. f)
Continuous Improvement
Continuous improvement of overall performance should be the eternal goal of the organization. Fact-based Decision-making Approach
Effective decision-making is based on data and information analysis. Mutually beneficial relationship with suppliers
Organizations and suppliers are interdependent, and mutually beneficial relationships can enhance the ability of both parties to create value. The above eight quality management principles form the basis of the GB/T19000 family of quality management system standards. 1 Scope
Quality management system
GB/T19000—2008/IS09000:2005 Foundations and terms
This standard describes the foundation of the quality management system that constitutes the main content of the GB/T19000 family of standards and defines related terms. This standard applies to:
Organizations seeking advantages through the implementation of a quality management system; a)
Organizations seeking confidence that suppliers can meet their product requirements b)
Users of products;
People and organizations that need to reach a consensus on the terms used in quality management (e.g. suppliers, customers, regulatory agencies); internal or external people and organizations that evaluate the quality management system of an organization or audit its compliance with the requirements of GB/T19001 (e.g. auditors, regulatory agencies, certification bodies); f
Internal or external people and organizations that make recommendations or provide training on the quality management system of an organization; g) People who develop relevant standards.
2 Foundations of quality management system
2.1 Theoretical description of quality management system
Quality management system can help organizations improve customer satisfaction. Customers require products to have characteristics that meet their needs and expectations, which are expressed in product specifications and are collectively referred to as customer requirements. Customer requirements can be specified by the customer in a contract or determined by the organization itself. In either case, the customer ultimately determines whether a product is acceptable. Because customer needs and expectations are constantly changing, as well as competitive pressures and technological developments, organizations are driven to continually improve their products and processes.
The quality management system approach encourages organizations to analyze customer requirements, define related processes, and continually control them to achieve products that are acceptable to the customer. The quality management system can provide a framework for continual improvement to increase the organization's chances of achieving customer and other interested party satisfaction. The quality management system can also provide confidence in the organization and its customers that products will continue to meet requirements. 2.2 Quality Management System Requirements and Product Requirements GB/T19000 family of standards distinguishes between quality management system requirements and product requirements. GB/T19001 specifies quality management system requirements, which are universal and applicable to all industries or economic sectors, regardless of the type of products they provide. GB/T19001 itself does not specify product requirements. Product requirements may be specified by customers, or by organizations through anticipating customer requirements, or by regulations. Product requirements are sometimes included in technical specifications, product standards, process standards, contractual agreements and regulatory requirements together with related process requirements. 2.3 Quality Management System Methods
The methods for establishing and implementing a quality management system include the following steps: a) Determine the needs and expectations of customers and other interested parties: b)
Establish the organization's quality policy and quality objectives; determine the processes and responsibilities necessary to achieve quality objectives; determine and provide the resources necessary to achieve quality objectives; specify methods for measuring the effectiveness and efficiency of each process: apply these measurement methods to determine the effectiveness and efficiency of each process: determine measures to prevent nonconformities and eliminate their causes; establish and apply processes for continuous improvement of the quality management system. GB/T19000—2008/ISO9000:2005The above methods are also applicable to maintaining and improving the existing quality management system. Organizations that adopt the above methods can build confidence in their process capabilities and product quality, provide a basis for continuous improvement, thereby enhancing customer and other interested parties' satisfaction and making the organization successful. 2.4 Process approach
Any activity or group of activities that uses resources to transform inputs into outputs can be considered a process. In order for an organization to operate effectively, many interrelated and interacting processes must be identified and managed. Usually, the output of a process will directly become the input of the next process. Systematically identifying and managing the processes used by an organization, especially the interactions between these processes, is called a "process approach".
This standard encourages the use of a process approach to manage organizations. The process-based quality management system model described by the GB/T19000 family of standards is shown in Figure 1. The figure shows that interested parties play an important role in providing inputs to the organization. Monitoring the satisfaction of interested parties requires evaluating information about the feelings of interested parties, which can indicate the extent to which their needs and expectations have been met. The model in Figure 1 does not show more detailed processes. Continuous improvement of the quality management system

Customers (and
other interested parties)
The establishment of a quality policy and quality objectives provides the organization with a focus. Both define the desired results and help the organization use its resources to achieve those results. The quality policy provides a framework for establishing and reviewing quality objectives. Quality objectives need to be consistent with the quality policy and the commitment to continual improvement, and their achievement needs to be measurable. The achievement of quality objectives has a positive impact on product quality, operational effectiveness and financial performance, and therefore has a positive impact on the satisfaction and trust of stakeholders. 2.6 The role of top management in the quality management system Top management, through its leadership and practical actions, can create an environment in which employees are fully involved and the quality management system can operate effectively. Top management can use the principles of quality management (see 0.2) as the basis for performing the following roles: a) formulate and maintain the organization's quality policy and quality objectives; b) enhance employee awareness, motivation and involvement by promoting the quality policy and quality objectives throughout the organization;
ensure that the entire organization focuses on customer requirements;
GB/T19000-2008/ISO9000:2005
ensure the implementation of appropriate processes to meet customer and other interested party requirements and achieve quality objectives; ensure the establishment, implementation and maintenance of an effective and efficient quality management system to achieve these quality objectives; e)
ensure the availability of necessary resources;
g) review the quality management system regularly; www.bzxz.net
decide on measures related to the quality policy and quality objectives; decide on measures to improve the quality management system. i)
2.7 Documents
2.7.1 The value of documents
Documents can communicate intentions and unify actions. Their use helps: a) meet customer requirements and improve quality;
b) provide appropriate training;
repeatability and traceability;
d) provide objective evidence;
e) evaluate the effectiveness and continued suitability of the quality management system. The formation of documents is not an end in itself, it should be a value-added activity. 2.7.2 Types of documents used in the quality management system The following types of documents are used in the quality management system: Documents that provide information about the conformity of the quality management system to the organization and to external parties. Such documents are called quality manuals: a) Documents that describe how the quality management system applies to a specific product, project or contract. Such documents are called quality plans; b) Documents that state requirements. Such documents are called specifications; c) Documents that state recommended practices or suggestions. Such documents are called guidelines; d) Documents that provide information to enable processes to be performed consistently. Such documents include documented procedures, work instructions and drawings; f) Documents that provide objective evidence of activities performed or results obtained. Such documents are called records. Each organization determines the amount and level of detail of the documents it needs and the media to be used. This depends on factors such as the type and size of the organization, the complexity and interaction of processes, the complexity of the product, customer requirements, applicable regulatory requirements, demonstrated competence of personnel, and the degree of demonstration required to meet the requirements of the quality management system. 2.8 Quality Management System Evaluation
2.8.1 Evaluation of Quality Management System Processes
When evaluating a quality management system, four basic questions should be asked of each process being evaluated: a) Are the processes identified and appropriately defined? b) Are responsibilities assigned?
c) Are the procedures implemented and maintained?
d) Are the processes effective in achieving the required results? The answers to the above questions will determine the evaluation results. Quality management system evaluation can be carried out at different scales through a range of activities, such as auditing and reviewing the quality management system and self-assessment. 2.8.2 Quality Management System Audits
Audits are used to determine the extent of conformity to the requirements of the quality management system. Audit findings are used to assess the effectiveness of the quality management system and to identify opportunities for improvement.
First-party audits are conducted by the organization itself or on its behalf for internal purposes and may serve as the basis for the organization's self-declaration of conformity. Second-party audits are conducted by the organization's customers or by others on its behalf. 3
GB/T19000—2008/ISO9000:2005 Third-party audits are conducted by external independent organizations. Such organizations are usually accredited and provide certification that meets requirements (such as GB/T19001).
GB/T19011 provides audit guidelines.
2.8.3 Quality Management System Review
One of the tasks of top management is to regularly and systematically evaluate the suitability, adequacy, effectiveness and efficiency of the quality management system against the quality policy and quality objectives. Such reviews may include considering whether the quality policy and quality objectives need to be modified in response to changes in the needs and expectations of stakeholders. The review includes determining whether measures need to be taken. The audit report is used together with other information sources for the review of the quality management system. 2.8.4 Self-assessment
The self-assessment of an organization is a comprehensive and systematic review of the organization's activities and results with reference to a quality management system or excellence model.
Self-assessment can provide a comprehensive picture of the organization's performance and the maturity of the quality management system. It also helps in identifying areas for improvement in the organization and setting priorities for work to be done.2.9 Continuous Improvement
The purpose of continuous improvement of the quality management system is to increase the organization's chances of achieving improved customer and other interested party satisfaction. Improvement includes the following activities:
a) Analyze and evaluate the current situation to identify areas for improvement;
determine improvement objectives;
find possible solutions to achieve these objectives; evaluate these solutions and make a selection;
implement the selected solution;
f) measure, verify, analyze and evaluate the results of implementation to determine that these objectives have been achieved;
formally adopt the changes.
When necessary, the results are reviewed to identify opportunities for further improvement. In this sense, improvement is a continuous activity. Feedback from customers and other interested parties, as well as audits and reviews of the quality management system, can be used to identify opportunities for improvement. 2.10 The role of statistical techniques
The application of statistical techniques helps to understand variation, which can help organizations solve problems and improve effectiveness and efficiency. These techniques also help to make better use of available data for decision making. Variation can be observed in the operation and results of many processes, even under apparently stable conditions. This variation can be observed through measurable characteristics of products and processes, and can also be seen at different stages of the product's life cycle, from market research to customer service and final disposal.
Statistical techniques can help measure, describe, analyze, explain and build models for this variation, even when data is relatively limited. Statistical analysis of this data can help to better understand the nature, extent and causes of variation, thereby helping to solve or even prevent problems caused by variation and promote continuous improvement. GB/Z19027 gives guidance on statistical techniques in quality management systems. 2.11 Focus of quality management system and other management systems The quality management system is part of the organization's management system, which is committed to achieving results related to quality objectives. When appropriate, meet the needs, expectations and requirements of interested parties. The organization's quality objectives complement other objectives, such as growth, financing, profitability, environment and occupational health and safety. Several management systems of an organization can be integrated with the quality management system into an integrated management system using common elements. This will facilitate planning, resource allocation, determination of complementary objectives and evaluation of the overall effectiveness of the organization. The organization's management system can be evaluated against its requirements or audited against the requirements of national standards such as GB/T19001 and GB/T24001. These audits can be conducted separately or in combination.
2.12 Relationship between quality management system and excellence model GB/T19000-2008/ISO9000:2005
The quality management system approaches proposed by the GB/T19000 family of standards and the organizational excellence model are based on common principles. They both: enable an organization to identify its strengths and weaknesses; a)
contain provisions for evaluation against a common model; provide a basis for continuous improvement;
d) contain provisions for external recognition.
The difference between the GB/T19000 family of quality management system approaches and the excellence model is their different scope of application. The GB/T19000 family of standards proposes quality management system requirements and performance improvement guidelines. The quality management system evaluation can determine whether these requirements are met. The Excellence Model contains criteria that enable comparative evaluation of organizational performance and can be applied to all activities and all stakeholders of the organization. The Excellence Model evaluation criteria provide a basis for comparing the performance of an organization with that of other organizations. 3 Terms and Definitions
Terms defined in this chapter, if they appear in other definitions or notes, will be expressed in bold and the original term number will be indicated in brackets after them. Such terms expressed in bold can be replaced by their complete definitions. For example: Product (3.4.2) is defined as "the result of process (3.4.1)". Process is defined as "a set of interrelated or interacting activities that transform inputs into outputs". If the term "process" is replaced by its definition, the product becomes "the result of a set of interrelated or interacting activities that transform inputs into outputs".
