The ISO technical committee is preparing a document which clearly shows the difference between ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 9001:2000 and when this document is approved by ISO, they will be published in the website, probably by October 2008. ISO and IAF are keen to implement a smooth transition to ISO 9001:2008 and have taken international quality system and auditor certification bodies for consultation to this effect.
It is proposed by ISO that the ISO 9001:2008 not to have any major changes but will only introduce some clarifications to the existing terms of ISO 9001:2000. It is estimated that about a million certificates have been issued for companies in about 170 countries. It has been decided by ISO that no certification will be issued to the companies till the ISO 9001:2008 is published and audit conducted in accordance with the terms of ISO 9001:2008.
