The Standard—through its inherent continuous/continual improvement paradigm, stress on customer satisfaction, heightened awareness of a lowered cost of quality, transparent business/quality objectives, and explicit calls for process/procedural analysis—offers the supplier a unique opportunity to improve its competitive advantage.

As a result, only a fully responsive QMS will include the totality of the eight principles and offer the organization the maximum return against these principles. However, this potential for enhanced marketability, productivity, and profitability is dependent upon the supplier's desire to fully comply with the Standard, write the documented system in a user-friendly manner for a very wide range of readers, make a total management commitment to this effort, and establish a QMS that can be maintained in a cost effective manner.

The goal is to improve organizational effectiveness, not just get certified. Most importantly, a unified, strategic, business-and-quality policy signals to all employees that the main purpose of the ISO 9000 certification is to improve the effectiveness of the operation, not just achieve certification.
