Determining scope of QMS

Hi, I work at a telecommunications company. I have a problem understanding the domain of application of ISO 9001: 2015. As a matter of fact, I work in the quality division and we want an ISO 9001 certification. We have several services and I will like to know if we can certify a single service or if we are obliged to certify all our services?

Thanks for your understanding and i am looking forward to your reply.

Answer:

ISO 9001 allows you to limit the scope of QMS to only a part of your company and part of your services. You can decide not only to limit scope on several services you provide but also on several locations of your company instead of covering the entire company. Only when documenting the scope, you need to list exactly to what services, locations and departments the QMS is applied. For more information about determining the scope, see: How to define the scope of the QMS according to ISO 9001:2015 https://advisera.com/9001academy/knowledgebase/how-to-define-the-scope-of-the-qms-according-to-iso-90012015/
