Quality Management Systems
What Is a Quality Management System?
A Quality Management System(QMS) is a formal set of processes, procedures, and assigned responsibilities that provide the framework for achieving quality and consistency in manufacturing operations. Quality Management systems, whether cGMP or ISO based, are focused on customer satisfaction and continuous improvement. Core elements include:
Quality Management Systems are founded on the PDCA cycle (Plan Do Check Act) to facilitate continuous improvement. A typical QMS will have stages that follow an iterative improvement process with components reflecting the following stages:
Design & Build
Deploy
Control & Measure
Review & Improve
Why Is a Quality Management System Important?
For many industries and products, having an ISO- or cGMP-based QMS is a prerequisite for doing business. A QMS allows a company to meet their customer requirements which in turn builds confidence in the company thereby increasing sales and customers. Operating with cost and resource efficiency provides a foundation for continued expansion, growth, and profitability.
Other benefits include reducing waste, lowering costs, engaging staff, and establishing an overarching direction for the entire organization. Avert focuses on creation and support of Quality Management Systems for the dietary supplement, cosmetic, and cannabis industries.
