Do your production procedures exist on paper but fail to control real operations?
This training module teaches how to convert documented procedures into effective shop‑floor controls that ensure consistent production under real conditions.

Training module overview
Training module overview
Training module overview
Many organisations have written production procedures yet experience uncontrolled changes, incomplete traceability and inconsistent outputs.
This training module translates ISO 9001 requirements for production and service provision into practical shop‑floor controls: setting up controlled conditions, determining and validating special processes, ensuring traceability and preservation, and managing changes before they cause defects. Participants learn how to build a production control system that works under real operating conditions rather than only in documentation.

Applicable environments
This module applies to organisations implementing or operating a Quality Management System (QMS) in line with ISO 9001. It focuses on how the standard’s requirements are interpreted and applied in practice within real organisational contexts.
The content is relevant for organisations seeking certification as well as for those using ISO 9001 as a reference framework to structure responsibilities, processes, and controls in the quality management domain.
Target audience

People involved in designing, building, operating, or improving a QMS aligned with ISO 9001
Executives and department heads accountable for the effectiveness and performance of a QMS
Those responsible for processes, policies, IT systems, risks, and controls related to quality management
Auditors of ISO 9001 who want to deepen their understanding of management-side best practices (not audit technique)

Decision support
Is this module for you?
It is a good fit if you…
implement or operate ISO 9001 in a production or manufacturing environment.
rely on procedures that exist on paper but break down on the shop floor.
struggle with inconsistent setups, informal changes, or weak traceability.
need production control that holds under real operating conditions.
want evidence of control without turning production into bureaucracy.

If most of the points above apply, this module is likely a good fit.
It may not be the best fit if you…
operate primarily service delivery rather than product production.
are focused on product design & development rather than execution.
already run stable, validated, and consistently controlled production processes.
are looking for generic operations management or lean manufacturing methods.
