Gap Analysis for ISO 9001

What is a Gap Analysis? 

This is an assessment of your current quality management system against each of the specific requirements of ISO 9001.  The Standard sets specific requirements you must meet: 28 of them in all (even more if you count all the sub-clauses).  The analysis measures how your current system stacks up against each of them.

Why do a gap analysis?

The most common questions people ask about getting ISO 9001 are:

  • how long will it take?
  • how hard is it?
  • what's involved?
  • how much will it cost?

Obviously, you need to know what to do in order to get there:  the work, resources and effort involved.

The Problem:  every business is different.  So there isn't a standard answer to the questions. 

Which is where the Gap Analysis comes in.  It tells you where you are now versus where you have to be for certification.  You find out exactly where your gaps are, and what has to be done to fill them, and thus get ISO 9001.  

Find out where you are now re. ISO 9001

This easy to use questionnaire shows you how to find out.

To do an ISO 9001 Gap Analysis, you need either a lot of knowledge and experience of the Standard, or a tool to use. 

The 'Do It Yourself' checklist addresses both of these needs. I've used my many years of experience with the Standard and with quality management systems.  Each requirement the Standard insists upon is clearly set out and explained in simple English, with questions for you to answer.

You just work your way through the checklist and use the help provided, to do your own ISO 9001 Gap Analysis. 
 

Sample:  Use this link to view sample pages from the Gap Analysis Checklist (*pdf format).  You'll see that it's written in plain English using everyday language, so you won't need a degree in "quality speak" to follow it.  And it includes plenty of guidance and guidelines on what to look for.  

The DIY Gap Analysis Checklist means you can benchmark your business against the international ISO 9001 Standard for a mere fraction of what it would cost to have it done professionally.

The DIY Gap Analysis Checklist is only $47.
