There is no certification required to be an ISO 9001 consultant, at least in most countries. Put yourself in the shoes of a potential customer and think about what they would look and care when searching for an ISO 9001 consultant, things like background, experience with ISO 9001 and economic sectors. Most customers expect a consultant to have some certificates

Answer: We're sorry about this confusion. You should use the list that comes with your documentation toolkit. Besides the mandatory documents, the documents listed in the toolkit also include forms for mandatory records.
This toolkit has all documents required to comply with ISO 27001, together with additional material and support to guide you through your implementation project. These templates are also applicable to any kind of organization.
Connecting nonconformity to the clause of the standard
These are parts made internally, not from outside suppliers.
Answer:
There are two things to be distinguished when it comes to dealing with nonconformites. First is how to handle nonconforming output or product, and this is covered with the clauses 8.7 and 10.2. These clauses define how the organization should behave when nonconformity occur.
Then you need to examine the nonconformity and determine which requirements of the standard or procedures were violated and what caused the nonconformity. In case when the employee makes and error that leads to nonconforming product, there can be various causes, from lack of competence to vague product requirements or procedure for production. All this is part of corrective action.

Options for ISO 9001 implementation and certification
I am the head of QA department in Water utility services. I am planning for a budget to implementing ISO 90001:2015 project for next year. I am wondering what is the approximate budget to implement such project to implement the full package criteria of ISO 90001:2015 along with the certification?
I look forward to your response.
Answer:
The price of certification will depend on the certification body and the country your're in. Certification bodies determine their price by the number of audit days their certification auditors needs to spend for your certification audit. The number of audit days is determined by the number of locations you have, scope of the certification, number of employees and other factors. The best approach is to find several offers and pick the best one.
As far as the price of implementation goes, it depends on the option you select for the implementation. You can implement the standard by yourself without any help; this option will be the least expensive but it will require lot of effort and time and, at the end, you wont be 100% sure whether your ace compliant with the standard until the certification audit.
The second option is to hire a consultant and let him or her to do all the job. This is the fastest and the most expensive option, but the standard will be implemented properly. Since this option requires the least effort from your side, the chances are that you wont get sufficient knowledge during the implementation and you will need to hire a consultant from time to time when you prepare for the certification audit and this can cause additional costs.
The third option is to implement the standard by using some online solution such as ours, where you will do most of the work but all the technical stuff will be covered by the solution. This option also include the online support, so you'll get the help from the experts when you need it making it the most cost effective. Also, you will get sufficient knowledge along the implementation project to maintain the system in the future, so you won't need any external help.
La última versión de la norma ISO 19011 fue publicada en 2011. La versión revisada del estándar se publicará a mediados de 2018
Es importante tener en cuenta que la ISO 19011 no determina ningún requisito, sino que se utiliza como una guía para la gestión del programa de auditorias, planificación y realización de las mismas, así como una guía para definir las competencias y evaluar el equipo de auditoria.
Las actividades de auditoria de ISO 19011 detallan la gestión de las actividades para las auditorias propiamente dichas. Este enfoque formal puede ayudar a asegurar que las auditorias internas sean efectivas y coherentes, y construyen la integridad del sistema de auditoria interna. Estos pasos definidos en ISO 19011 no son obligatorios ( por ejemplo, para pequeñas empresas pueden obviarse algunos de ellos), pero constituyen una buena práctica para llevar a cabo una auditoria.
