Article Abstract:

The International Organization for Standardization's (ISO) procedures for securing certification in its ISO 9000 standards are explained. These procedures, which many US companies have found confusing, are designed to harmonize technical regulations in the members states of the EC and the European Free Trade Assn. Companies are required to secure ISO 9000certification if they wish to be registered as having complied with mandatory European laws concerning conformity assessment processes. US companies can turn to accredited ISO registrars for advice on compliance issues.
