In this episode of The Quality Hub, Chatting with ISO Experts, host Xavier Francis sits down with Suzanne Strausser, VP of Consulting and Development at Core Business Solutions, to answer a common question: “Does ISO 9001 apply to me?” Together, they break down why ISO 9001 is not just for large manufacturers, but can benefit organizations of any size or industry, from small businesses and service providers to nonprofits, schools, healthcare organizations, and government agencies. The conversation explores how ISO 9001 can help create consistency, improve processes, reduce errors, support growth, and provide structure without overcomplicating operations. They also discuss the difference between using ISO 9001 as an internal improvement framework versus pursuing certification, emphasizing that the real value comes from building a quality management system that fits the organization’s needs.
